11. Hot Tub: No children under the age of 18 permitted in hot tubs at any time without adult supervision. When using the hot tub, remember there is a certain health risk associated with this facility. Use at your own risk. Our housekeepers drain, sanitize, refill, and replenish chemicals in all tubs prior to your arrival; therefore, it may not be warm until later that evening. DO NOT STAND ON THE HOT TUB COVERS. Hot tub covers are for insulation purposes and are not designed to support a person or persons. They will break and you may be charged for replacement. When not using the hot tub, leave the cover on so hot tub will stay warm.
12. Fireplace: This is a wood burning fireplace, guests are to bring their own wood and fire starters if they'd like to use it. Please make sure the vent is open (you should be able to extend your hand through the top of the fireplace and feel a draft) prior to setting up and burning wood in the fireplace. This fireplace will get HOT so take precaution to keep children away from it when lit or when it is hot. Note that due to danger of wild fire, please refrain from using the fireplace between April 1st and October 1st.
13. Water and Septic: The cabin is on a well and septic system. The mineral content in the water is high. During a drought, the well water may have an odor. The septic system is very effective; however, it will clog up if improper material is flushed. DO NOT FLUSH anything other than toilet paper. No feminine products should be flushed at any time.
14. Weather: Mountain roads can be curvy and steep. We highly recommend using a four-wheel-drive vehicle during the snow months. We do NOT refund for weather-related disruptions to the reservation, road conditions or any other disruptions that are out of our control. We highly recommend travel insurance for all planned vacations especially if you are staying during winter months.
15. Garbage: please dispose of trash in the garbage bins provided inside the house. Our cleaning team will remove and dispose of them after your departure. Please do not leave trash outside the cabin.
16. Any damage to any items in the cabin including couches, chairs, tables, TVs, hot tub, beds, sheets, towels, pillows, etc, are the responsibility of the Guest. Every item will be looked at before arrival and after departure. In the case that you notice any damages upon check-in, notify the Owner immediately. It is our home. Treat it as if it were your own.

Owner will make every reasonable effort to ensure that such amenities or appliances are available as well as will be and remain in good working order. However, Guest acknowledges that breakdowns are beyond the Owner's control and, despite Owner's best efforts, labor scheduling or supply chain constraints may make it unfeasible to bring a broken-down amenity, appliance, or hot tub to good working order during a Guest's stay. This includes unforeseen events and circumstances such as a power outage.
