BBQ Grill Use Rules

• Please do not move the grill.
• Do not grill near the house — it is a fire hazard.
• We do our best to keep the propane tank full; however, propane refills are the responsibility of the guest.

1. Use Aluminum Foil or Grill Mats
Always use aluminum foil or a grill mat when cooking to help prevent food and grease from falling through the grates. This reduces flare-ups and helps keep the grill clean for the next guest.

2. Clean After Use
Scrub the grates after grilling and dispose of all foil, food scraps, and grease in the trash. A grill brush and cleaning supplies are provided.

3. Turn Off the Propane Tank
After grilling, turn off all burners AND fully close the propane tank valve (turn clockwise until tight). This is essential for safety.

4. Replace the Grill Cover
Once the grill has fully cooled, securely replace the grill cover to protect it from the weather.

5. Leave It Ready for the Next Guest
Please treat the grill like your own — clean, safe, and ready for the next guest to enjoy.

6. Return Tools and Store the Clean Case
Return all grilling tools to their original location and place the clean utensil case back in its designated storage area.

Failure to follow these rules may result in additional cleaning fees or loss of grill privileges for future guests.

This house has four roomy bedrooms and plenty of living space. It was perfect for our family visiting Buffalo together. We were close to where we wanted to be and it was very easy to get to the Falls and museums and just a couple blocks from Delaware Park.

Pros- clean, pots and pans are stainless steel pans, frenchpress coffee pot bring ground coffee and scale if you use that. Loved having ac unit in each room so each person could have temp they desire.Cons- to me the beds were rocks. Would have appriciated softer beds, squeeky floors expected in old house, all the bedrooms upstairs, waist ofspace down stairs seems they could have a bedroom downstairs. And move the dining room table space to the kitchen area.

Fabulous stay in a beautiful home!

We were four friends who were coming to Buffalo to spend four days together, and we couldn’t have picked a better place for a girls' weekend! As soon as we walked into the place, it felt like home. The entire house was very clean and well kept, and the location was perfect for getting around the city. Everywhere we wanted to go was just a short driving distance away. We each had our own bedroom with very comfortable beds and lots of pillows, there was plenty of living space and a well stocked kitchen, and there were two full bathrooms with nice, plush towels. Ayat was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was always extremely quick to respond to our inquiries. We all loved our stay and would highly recommend Harvard Haven for a great getaway! Thanks again, Ayat, for a wonderful stay!

Easter Weekend in the 716

The house was well suited for our stay, 6 adults. The kitchen was great - organized, clean and well stocked. Only two disappointments, that didn't alter our rating, just are suggestions for improvement. The living room does not have enough seating and the sofas are very old. The main TV in the living room is not a smart TV, we could not get live TV at all (it is March Madness), only Netflix type entertainment. An upgrade to the TV would be great! Thanks for the hospitality!

Overall the property was clean and nicely appointed. The only issue was a few black ants in the downstairs bathroom and kitchen. Not a big deal. We appreciated the shower body wash conditioner and shampoo in both bathroom. We did have to got out and buy toilet paper. There was no local tv only Netflix and Prime. The deal breaker as to why we would not stay there again-The front steps are a major safety concern. The porch slopes terribly and the outdoor carpeting on the stairs is a tripping hazard. Honestly, I don't know how this front entry passed inspection. We visit Buffalo often and would love to stay again if the
