This vacation rental contract is a legal agreement between the Owner (also referred to as the "Owner/Property Manager”) and you, the Renters (also referred to as "Tenants" and "Guests"). This contract is entered into agreement as of the date when the Renters check into the property. Check in Date: after 4:00pm local time Check out Date: by 10:00am local time Payment Policy: If you booked through Airbnb or VRBO your payment terms will be detailed in your reservation confirmation. For all other websites, we require 100% of the payment due at the time of the booking. If we do not receive payment per this schedule, we reserve the right to cancel your reservation without a refund of any previous payments made, if any. Cancellation Policy: If you booked on Airbnb, your cancellation policy will be listed in your Airbnb reservation confirmation. If you booked your reservation through VRBO or any other website, 100% of the total booking charges (less 5% taxable cancellation fee) will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 60 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. For cancellations made within 60 days prior to the arrival date, no refund will be issued. You are strongly encouraged to purchase your own travel insurance. Fees: For bookings made on Airbnb, VRBO, Trip Advisor, Expedia, or our own website, any fees will be listed on your reservation confirmation page and charged at the time of booking. These fees may include payment processing, administrative/management, damage insurance, cleaning, or taxes. If we do not receive payment per this schedule, we reserve the right to cancel your reservation without a refund of any previous payments made, if any. Rental Agreement: We, the Renters (also referred to as "Tenants" and "Guests") agree to the following: 1)PAYMENT DUE - All rental monies are due according to the payment schedule disclosed under "Payment Policy" above on reservation acceptance. 2)CONDITION OF PROPERTY: Owner/manager have, to the best of their ability, given an accurate description of the property and its condition. Guest understands that it is considered as reserved "sight unseen". Our cleaning staff will have cleaned it before your occupancy. All electrical, plumbing and appliances should be in working order. The failures of operation of certain extra amenities, such as TVs, cable, games, or the Internet and WiFi service are not a basis for any refund. Owner/manager will make every effort to have these items repaired but does not guarantee that they will be repaired during Guest’s occupancy. When you arrive, if you find that the house has not been cleaned to normal standards please notify the Owner/manager immediately. We will do our best to have tradesmen attend to the problems but may not be able to fix everything over holidays and weekends. Under no circumstances will any of the rental money be refunded or returned because of the condition of the house. The Guest agrees to hold the Owner and property manager harmless from any liability for the condition of the house. Due to the nature of the inherent dangers of swimming pools and/or hot tubs, Guests must use at your own risk. There is no life guard on duty. Pool and /or hot tub is to be used by Guests at their own risk and not hold owner or property manager liable for issues arising from use of the aforementioned items or supplements to house. 3)CLEANING & REPAIRS: All homes have cleaning included in the total rent. If additional cleaning above and beyond what is deemed typical for ordinary use is required after you leave, it will be charged to your credit card. Guest agrees to keep house, furniture and furnishings in good order. Removing, adding or changing furniture without Owner's written approval shall be deemed a material breach of this Rental Agreement, and is strictly prohibited. Guest is responsible for cost of replacement of any damage to furniture or premises and replacement of missing items. 4)ENTRY OF PREMISES: With Guest's permission, which is hereby given, Owner or Owner's representative may enter the premises during reasonable daylight hours without securing prior permission from Guest, but shall give Guest notice of such entry immediately prior if possible and immediately thereafter. For inventory and maintenance purposes a property management employee of the Owner may need to enter the premises. The same permission procedure applies as above. In any emergency, Owner or Owner’s servicing agents may enter the premises at any time without permission of Guest for the purposes of making repairs to alleviate such emergency. If Guest abandons or vacates premises, Owner may, at his option, terminate this agreement, re-enter the premises and remove all Guest's property. 5)ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE INSURANCE: Renters will be completely responsible for any and all damage to the home or property caused by Renters, whether accidental or due to Renters negligence. Renters understand that Renters are responsible for damage beyond that covered by any rental insurance policy. 6)FURNITURE: All furniture must be returned to its original location on Guest's departure or an additional charge will be made. 7)MISSING ITEMS - Renters will be charged for any missing items reasonably attributable to Renters and not returned after notification. The cleaning service performs an inventory/survey of the property after Guests depart and notifies the Owner of any missing items. Owner will notify guests in the event that items were inadvertently taken, and provide guests the opportunity to return the missing items. 8)PERSONAL PROPERTY: Guest understands that any personal property of and used by Guest is not insured by Owner and Owner shall not be responsible for any lost, stolen or missing property of the Guest or property of Guest left after check out. 9)SURROUNDING CONDITIONS- Under no circumstances will weather conditions, outside of those in which a local state of emergency is declared, be cause for any partial or full refund of a reservation. No refunds full or partial will be made for weather, snow, ice, internet outages, power outages, illnesses, airline or other transportation delays, travel issues, or similar. In the event that a mandatory evacuation is issued by Buncombe County, Sevier County, or Baldwin County, we will issue a full refund.

Adults cannot rent property on behalf of underage guests, no exception. 11)NON-SMOKING and other issues - This is a NON SMOKING vacation rental.

Extra nights are charged at the daily rate and may be granted if available. If Guests are not present when cleaning crews arrive and have left their possessions in the house, cleaning crews will collect their possessions and remove them from the premises in order to prepare the unit for incoming guests and Guest will be charged $150 for this service.

If renter elects to engage in any additional cleaning prior to departure this is authorized and appreciated by owner and property manager. 16)RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES: It is specifically agreed and understood that the relationship between the parties herein shall be deemed to be of proprietor/manager and lodger or Guest as opposed to a relationship of landlord/manager and tenant.

In such an instance, the Rental Agreement will be terminated, and Owner and property manager shall be entitled to otherwise recover all damages allowable under the Law. The Guest, as part of the considerations of this special rental, in recognition that this property is booked in advance by other Guests throughout the year, hereby waives all claims for damages that might be caused by Owner or manager; reentry and taking possession of premises or removing or storing property as herein provided, and will hold Owner and manager harmless from loss, costs and damages occasioned thereof, and no such re-entry shall be considered or construed to be a forcible entry as defined in the Tennessee Code of Civil Procedure or other similar statutory provisions.
