Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Guest rooms and hosting fellow co-housers

[Nancy Morehouse (nmorehouse]

We do offer our Guest Rooms to prospective members.
Below is a copy of our 2012 guidelines which have not been revised and has 
worked very well.  We still use a paper calendar.  Looks like we should work on 
a revision!

WCL Guest Room Information and Trial Guidelines

Information  
Guest Room 1 (on the first floor) has a queen bed and a handicap accessible 
attached bath which can also be accessed from the hall for public use.  
Guest Room 2 on the second floor has a trundle bed with 2 twin beds and a 
private bath; it will have a queen bed shortly.  
The Caregiver’s Suite on the second floor will have a queen bed and a trundle 
bed with 2 twin beds, a living room, potential kitchen area, and a private 
bath.   Note:  currently there are no beds available for this space so no 
guests may be scheduled in this room. 
There are 2 sets of sheets for each bed in the Guest Rooms and two sets of 
towels for each potential guest.  The extra sheets and towels will be stored in 
the cabinets in the laundry room.  Please return clean linens to each 
designated place. 

Trial Guidelines
Rooms are reserved on first come-first served basis by posting on a calendar in 
the Common House.
 
Guests may be community members, family, friends, prospective home buyers, or 
other cohousers.  

Length of stay:  up to one week or longer under special circumstances. 

Each guest must have a member host. 

If all guest rooms are booked, then there will be a waiting list in case the 
first guest has a change in plans.  The host who made the first reservation 
needs to notify the next member host as soon as possible if the guest will not 
be coming so other guests may use the room if needed.
