All properties strictly enforce the maximum occupancy per unit - exceeding this number is grounds for possible eviction with no refund of monies paid.

The owners and staff of Alta Chalets are delighted to accommodate groups attending summer weddings in the Alta/Snowbird area. However, kindly be advised that all parties or gatherings at the Chalet must be cleared in advance by concierge.
4x4 VEHICLE AND PARKING
PHOTOHAUS CONDOMINIUMS: There is one parking spot for each rental unit at The Photohaus. It is directly in front of the unit. Please display Alta Chalets parking pass clearly on rearview mirror and park in designated Photohaus parking spot.

Oversize vehicles, motor homes, oversized vehicles or vehicles with trailers are not permitted at any Alta Chalet property.

In addition, the highway can also be restricted to 4WD/AWD during and after storms.
PETS
Pets are prohibited in Little Cottonwood Canyon. This law is strictly enforced at all times. No pets or animals of any kind are permitted in any property unless they are a bona fide service animal that we are required by law to allow. Emotional support animals are not permitted. You also agree that a prohibition on animals is not a guarantee than an animal has not been inside the rental unit or building or that the rental unit is free of animal or pet allergens. Violation of the No Pet-policy will result in a $1500.00 fine plus any damages.
NO SMOKING AND CARE OF PROPERTY
No smoking is allowed in or around (including porches, decks, or outdoor areas) the premises at any time.

This is not covered by the Vacation Rental Damage Waiver. Violation of the No Smoking policy will result in a $1500.00 fine plus any damages.
CARE OF PROPERTY: Tenant acknowledges that unless Alta Chalets is notified on day of check-in of any damage or cleaning concerns, then thereafter, any damages to the property or concerns during the occupancy will be the Tenant responsibility and must be reported to Alta Chalets and paid for prior to departure.
HOT TUB
All hot tubs are thoroughly cleaned prior to guest arrival and are serviced daily throughout your stay. A member of the Alta Chalets team will enter the property each day to inspect and maintain the hot tub as needed. Use of the hot tub is at your own risk. Guests are responsible for any damage to the hot tub or its cover during their stay. Alta Chalets is not liable for any injury, loss, or damage resulting from improper or unsafe use. If the hot tub must be drained and refilled due to guest misuse, additional charges will apply. Should a hot tub at your rental property become unavailable, guests will receive a daily credit of $25 for a common-area hot tub or $50 for a private hot tub for each day it is out of service. Refunds do not apply to closures due to public health regulations, seasonal unavailability (hot tubs are not available during the summer months), or when draining and refilling is required.
CHRISTMAS TREES
Due to fire risk, only Artificial Christmas Trees are allowed on premise. If you intend to purchase a tree, please contact our office to ensure that it will fit in the unit. In addition, as the holidays are our busiest time of year, set up/ take down/ removal of tree must be performed by the guest.
HOUSEKEEPING
Cleaning fees are based on stays of 7 nights or less. If you are staying for a longer duration, additional cleaning fees will need to be added manually to the reservation. We will contact you to let you know additional cleaning costs and to schedule them during your stay.
All properties are cleaned in preparation for your arrival. Alta Chalets provides all bed and bath linens. In addition, we supply a starter supply of tissues, toilet paper, paper towels, bath soap, laundry soap, dishwasher detergent, washing machine detergent and garbage bags. We do not replenish these supplies during your stay.
The property must be left in the same general condition as when you arrived. The refrigerator and freezer must be emptied of all food and free of food spills. Please do your dishes before you leave. All clean dishes should be put away and dirty dishes rinsed and placed in dishwasher with the dishwasher started. Any dishes that are left and need to be cleaned after your departure will be at your additional cleaning fees.
Please leave all linen on beds and put dirty towels in the bathtub or shower.
Alta Chalet’s staff inspects and cleans the property shortly after your departure. Charges for any excessive cleaning or damage will be charged to the credit card on file.

Service requests for the heater, televisions, appliances, hot tubs etc. will be responded to as quickly as possible. There are no rebates or refunds issued to Tenants for any reason as every good faith effort is made to insure the property is maintained to the highest standards.
LOCKED AREAS
Certain areas within property may be locked such as owner’s personal storage areas and are exempt from this lease agreement and are off limits to the Tenant. Forced entry into these areas is cause for immediate termination and Tenant will be charged for damage and/or missing items.
