General Terms and Conditions of Booking Please review the following conditions of the unit you will be renting. By accepting your confirmation and checking into the unit it is understood by all parties that you have reviewed and accepted the terms herein.

Rental Agreement:

ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE: Upon confirmation of your reservation, you will receive emails with directions to the unit and the keyless entry code, which is necessary to access the unit (or instructions for accessing unit). Using this code, you may check into the unit anytime AFTER 3:00 PM on your date of arrival. Checkout is NO LATER than 11:00 AM. Early check-ins and late checkouts are admissible only by previous agreement. It is the guests’ responsibility to print, save, or otherwise note their access code before arrival. HCRL LLC will not issue any refunds as a result of failure to do so.

MAXIMUM OCCUPANCY: The property is intended for the exclusive use of registered guests (i.e., families, retreats, reunions) and is not to be used to host parties or events that include additional unpaid guests. See reservation page for each property for maximum occupancy. Temporary visits by unpaid guests are limited to a maximum number of people which may vary by property capacity. Please request information specific to your rental if you have any questions.

If it becomes known to us after your check-in that you have additional unclaimed guests staying in the home, we may assess a fee per guest, per stay, in addition to the normal nightly rate for these guests.

DATE CHANGES: Guests may request to change the dates of their reservation free of charge, provided the dates they request are available. Reservations made at special or last-minute rates may be subject to a surcharge should the special conditions under which their original reservation was made no longer apply.

CLEANING FEES: Cleaning fees, if applicable, are assessed on a per-stay basis and cover the costs of preparing the home for your stay. This includes the provision of fresh towels, linens, a starter set of paper products (i.e. toilet paper and paper towels), coffee, tea, creamer, sugar, and toiletries (where applicable). Guests should feel free to enjoy the house and to leave soiled linens and towels for the housekeeper to launder. However, we ask that guests please dispose of their trash in the provided bins upon checkout. Leaving the unit in an excessive state of dirtiness may result in an additional cleaning surcharge.

VACATION RENTAL DAMAGES: Guests authorize management to process charges for the costs of repair or replacement of damaged or missing items beyond normal use, excessive clean up, stains, odor removal, late check out, or additional cleaning crew costs. Any damages to rental property should be communicated by the guest to management after arrival, and are expected to be covered by the guest via credit card on file.
