Other things to note:
On snowy days, the driveway will be plowed, though keep in mind that the plow folks have other houses to plow as well, so they will get to the house as quickly as possible. There are shovels in the front if you need access to your car before they arrive. They will attempt to work around your vehicles, but may need to return when you have left for the day.
Please keep in mind you are amongst wildlife, so do not keep any food of any kind in your car.
