Getting Around
A car is the easiest and most dependable way to get around the area. Our car can be available during certain exchanges with prior arrangements.
We are a 2 minute walk from a bus stop and Lime bikes/scooters and a 15 minute walk from the DASH line, a free bus route with access to downtown and major attractions. We also have two bikes (adult small and adult medium) available for use. We have plenty of parking (driveway and street) as well as 1 spot in the garage.
