********* ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT DETAILS / HOUSE RULES*********
BY STAYING AT OUR HOUSE, YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE RULES
Booking-Person booking must be at least 25 yrs of age, provide a government issued ID, and must sign a rental agreement.
Security Deposit-A $500 security deposit will be put on hold 2 days prior to your arrival and released 5 days after your departure. This is a standard procedure designed to protect against damages or incidents that may occur during your stay at our property. Upon your departure and after inspection of the property, if there are no damages or violations noted, the security deposit will be released as per the terms outlined in our rental agreement. You will lose your security deposit of $500 for SMOKING, PARTYING, OR BREAKING ANY OTHER HOUSE RULES!
Travel Insurance-We highly recommend travel insurance to protect you from any unforeseen events that may prevent you from traveling during your reservation window or damages to the property. Airbnb offers a policy upon checkout. Unfortunately we cannot offer refunds for cancellations that fall outside of what is stated in our cancellation policy.
Occupancy- You will be asked to leave without a refund if you bring more guests than stated on the reservation.
Check-out- Our check out time is 10 AM, please respect this. With a large house, it takes our cleaners the entire time before next guest check-in to clean and prepare the property. If you stay past 10 this gives them a late start and can effect the check-in of the next guest. We will charge a late check-out fee of $100 for every half hour you checkout after 10am.
Please respect the pre-check out process outlined in our guest manual-take out trash, clean dishes and start the dishwasher, put dirty towels and sheets washer and leave rest in front of washer, remove and discard perishable food from refrigerator. If the property is left in a state that requires our cleaners to do any cleaning that results in them charging an extra fee, then we will pass that fee on to the guest.
Parking We will allow up to 4 cars. Please do not park on the street.
Cameras- We have exterior front door facing and/or driveway facing security cameras. This is for safety, and it should be on at all times. If it loses power, either by the switch being turned off or the wires being disconnected, we will try to contact you or check in with the neighbors or police to make sure everyone is safe.
Parties- We do NOT allow parties. Please respect our neighbors, there are local full-time residents, and take all conversation and music inside between the hours of 10pm and 8am.
Sewer - Please do not put grease or sand down the kitchen sink. Please flush ONLY toilet paper down the toilet. Baby wipes and feminine products must go in the garbage cans.
Smoking- Absolutely no smoking or vaping in the house at any time. If this rule is violated you will loose your security deposit and be asked to leave without a refund.
