How to use the…

heat & ac

Both heat and AC are available and controlled by the Nest thermostat located in the dining area. We keep the house at a nice 68º throughout the year. Please feel free to change it to whatever temperature you’re most comfortable at while considering the environment. 

In warmer months, we actually find that the breeze from the lake and the surrounding shade keeps the house very comfortable, so we love to keep the windows open. Feel free to open the house if you like, but please ensure all windows are closed before you leave Wildwood. 

If the basement is chilly

A space heater is located in the lower-level living room. Additionally, we recommend ensuring the basement vents are open, and closing the vents upstairs to force the hot air down (and to trick the thermostat into thinking the house is cooler than it is).

laundry

Laundry is located on the upper level just outside the guest bathroom. Feel free to use during your stay if you need to do a load or two. Be sure to empty the dryer's lint trap between loads.
