Do not start fires in the fireplace unless it’s a wood burning fireplace (if it has something there, it’s electric or gas and can’t be used for another purpose). Candles, and other fires are not allowed. If a property doesn’t have a grill , it’s because our HOA/city doesn’t allow grilling therefore no fires/grilling are allowed on the property.

CHANGES/REFUNDS/ CHARGEBACKS. The full amount of rent paid is earned in full upon the guest checking in and staying the first night. Renter waives the right to any credit card chargebacks after checkin. If renter booked on a platform such as VRBO or Airbnb, the cancellation policy agreed to on there will preside. If booked directly with owner, the cancellation policy is: initial deposit (50-60% of the booking amount) is non refundable 59 days or less before checkin. 29 or less days before checkin, no refunds are allowed. A request to change dates is equal to a cancellation and the cancellation policy still applies. TRAVEL INSURANCE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ALL GUESTS as we cannot make exceptions to the cancellation policies. Sickness or Covid-19 is not a valid reason for a cancellation policy exception.
