The walkway to enter the Studios are on the left facing side of the property, through the driveway towards the back of the property. It is the first or third door depending on which space is available on the portion of the property where both studios are located.
There is a driveway in which you are welcomed to park for easy access during your stay. There's also additional parking in the front of the property in which the owner usually occupies but is large enough to share.
