Construction: Sweetwater cabins cannot predict construction plans in the area and, therefore, cannot be held responsible for any inconvenience. No refunds can be given in the event of nearby construction.

Pest Control: We take every precaution possible to keep pests and insects outdoors by having our properties exterminated regularly, but, please remember all our cabins are located in the forest, which we share with insects and other critters, such as beetles, field mice, squirrels, raccoons, opossums, flies, wasps, deer, walking sticks, coyotes, moths, and butterflies, just to name a few.

Pet Policy: As pet owners ourselves, we understand how much you love your furry family member(s), however, as a business we also must be respectful to those guests who are sensitive to or even allergic to our pets. The pet fee allows housekeeping to perform additional sanitary measures to ensure the next guests enter a clean and pet free environment. Pet friendly cabins require advance notice and payment of the nonrefundable pet fee.

Pet owners agree to not leave their dogs unattended while away from the cabin (crating is fine, guest must provide crate) and keep them off furniture and beds. Also, we ask that guests clean up any droppings in the yard or surrounding areas upon departure. Owners are responsible for any damage/repairs resulting from their pets. Guests who fail to notify management of pets prior to arrival will be assessed a $100 pet fee after guest departure. Guests who have allowed their pets on the bed and furniture evidenced by excessive hair and/or damage that require dry cleaning or disposal will be charged the following additional amounts: •    Excessive cleaning of pet hair: $25 •    Dry cleaning: $50 •    Disposal of sheets/comforter/mattress pad: $100

Internet/Electronics: We are pleased to offer Wi-Fi connections and cable TV at all our properties for guests to use. However, we are not responsible for any interruption or loss of access, data loss, or distortion. There will be no refund or rent reduction for direct or indirect damages due to service interruption, loss, or poor quality.

Hot Tub: No children under the age of 14 are 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 take some time to reach ideal temperature. Do NOT Stand On 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 will be charged a $500 replacement charge. Remember when not using the hot tub, leave cover on so hot tub will stay warm. NO glass, soaps, creams, oils, bubbles, lotions, or food is allowed in the hot tub.

Fireplace: The fireplace is a non-vented propane gas log fired firebox or gas log electrical. Please do not throw any paper or other combustible materials in the fireplace.

Water and Septic: The cabins are on a well and septic systems. 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.

Inclement Weather/Storms Policy: If there is a storm or inclement weather, no refunds will be given unless: • The National Weather Service order mandatory evacuations in a "Storm Warning area" and/or • A "mandatory evacuation order has been given for the Storm Warning" area of residence of a vacationing guest. • The day that the authorities order a mandatory evacuation order in a "Storm Warning," area, we will refund: Any unused portion of rent from a guest currently registered; • Any unused portion of rent from a guest that is scheduled to arrive, and wants to shorten the stay, to come in after the Warning is lifted; and • Any advance rents collected or deposited for a reservation that is scheduled to arrive during the "Warning" period.

System Failure: In case of failure of a system during your stay, including water, sewer, heating, air conditioning, electrical, mechanical, ventilating, structural systems, major appliances (refrigerator and oven), hot tub, sauna, we shall repair them. You agree to permit access to the cabin to make repairs. We do ask for your patience, however, like your own hometown, we are at the mercy of the city and local businesses availability and capabilities.

We shall not be liable to you in damages, and NO rebate or refund will be given for such a temporary failure, provided we are repairing the system or amenity in a reasonable manner after having received notice from you that repairs are needed. This includes those mentioned above and the following: DVD player and Direct TV

Hot Tub Failure: Please let us know as soon as possible if the hot tub is not working properly. Every hot tub is cleaned, sanitized, and in working order prior to guest arrival. However, with 24- hour, year-round usage issues are bound to arise. If the hot tub is not working, please refer to the Troubleshooting Guide provided in the cabin. This guide will walk you through a reset process which fixes 99% of the problems. Do not try and fix yourself. We have a maintenance staff that can be contacted.

Damages: By paying your reservation fee, you assume full responsibility for any items found to be missing after your departure from the home, along with any damage due to misuse, negligence, or action on your or your visitors part, except in the case of normal wear and tear that you report to us within 24 hours of checking in to the property.
