• Home Automation
Feel free to use the Google home devices as your personal concierge. You can ask questions by simply saying "Hey Google" or "OK Google". An example would be "Hey Google, what are some good hiking trails around here"? Or "Hey Google, what local events are taking place". Or "Hey Google, what's the best place to get a pizza." or "Hey Google, how about some things to do." There are so many options to try, we've compiled a list of commands in the notebook in front of you to try. Or you can simply say "Hey Google, what's at the movies? Hey Google, tell me about shopping, tell me about restaurants.
At night, simply say "Hey Google Goodnight" and this will trigger a set of events. The doors will lock, the thermostat will adjust to 71 degrees, and some of the lights in the house will go out.
You can control the thermostat from anywhere in the house by simply saying "Hey Google, set the thermostat to" Then say your desired temperature.
You can turn off the lights in the house by saying "Hey Google, turn on/off the kitchen lights. Or "turn off family room lights" Plus much more.
Say "Hey Google, it's movie time" and Google will adjust settings throughout the house to set the scene for the perfect viewing experience.
Say "Hey Google, how do I cook a good Alfredo sauce". Or whatever recipe you're looking to cook. Or you can say "Hey Google, how do I make the perfect long Island iced tea". Or just name your favorite cocktail for the recipe.
An events kiosk/tablet is also provided on the pub table for you to browse local events in the area. Please don't attempt to change any settings on the kiosk. Please do not remove the plastic tab attached to the tablet. The camera on the tablet is deactivated within the kiosk app, and that plastic tab is reassurance that there are no cameras inside the house.
• Home Security
*In the event of a power outage the door locks are battery powered and will still give you access in and out of the cabin*
The door code is last 4 digits of the phone number of the person that made the reservation. Simply press "Yale" logo and the numbers will light up. Press the 4 digit code and then the check mark at the bottom right, and the deadbolt will slide open and will disarm the security system.
You can arm the system by simply saying "Hey Google, we're leaving", "Hey Google, Goodbye.", "Hey Google, bye bye" or even "Hey Google, arm the alarm system". All doors and windows must be closed to
arm the security system. You have 2 minutes to vacate the house once it's armed. We appreciate your assistance in securing our cabin during and after your visit! It's for your protection, and ours. You cannot disarm the system by voice command.
Pro-tip. Just say Hey Google, we're leaving and that's all you have to do. The system will arm itself.
