PLEASE READ PRIOR TO BOOKING:
We are super easy going and strive to go above and beyond our guest's expectations to ensure you have an awesome stay! Although we have only had this property for less than 2 years, we have been Superhosts for 4+ years and the vast majority of our stays have been great hosting experiences. Unfortunately, there have been a few (very rare) issues where guests violated and damaged our home through massive parties and unapproved (poorly trained) pets so we now feel it is necessary to spell out some basic rules. Please don't take this as us being rigid and uptight hosts, we are just trying to protect ourselves from the very rare, unfortunate hosting experience. With the exception of the very important fishing rule (explained below) these will be common sense for most.

General Overview:
- No smoking in the house
- No parties (unless you request and we provide written approval). We are certainly happy to accommodate additional guests (upon request) if you want to host family or friends from the area over for a meal or something. However, there are outdoor security cameras so we will know how many people arrive. If an unauthorized party does take place there will be an a $250 fee per guest over the requested guest count. Example: if 10 people are supposed to be staying but 20 end up staying (without written approval) there will be an additional $2,500 charge to your stay. Again, having some friends/family over that aren't staying at the cabin is not why this is in place, we have unfortunately had significant damage to our property from a large "kegger" party.
- Leave the house in the same (clean) condition as when you arrived.
- All pets must be requested prior to booking and we do charge a minimum pet fee of $25 per dog per day but reserve the right to charge up to $50 per dog/per night depending on the dog/group size. If an unapproved pet comes it will be $100 per night per animal.
- Our rate is based on a max occupancy of 8 total people. There is enough bed capacity for 11-12 people as well as additional space for air mattresses or cots (which you can bring). However, we charge $40 per person/ per night for each additional person over the first 8 guests and we ask that you please be transparent with your group size.

FISHING STRICTLY PROHIBITED
*There are amazing spots to fish close by, some with a guide, others are public but the stretch of stream in front of this house is heavily regulated and not owned by us. This house is strictly a house rental, under no circumstances can you fish the water connected to the property. By booking this property you accepting full responsibility if you violate this very simple rule. Upon arrival, we have all guests sign an acknowledgement waiver agreeing to the risks/penalties if any fishing does happen. This includes but is not limited to, fines of several thousand dollars and potential legal action. As a reminder, there are outdoor security cameras and if you fish you will be caught, it is definitely not worth it. In summary DO NOT FISH in the water attached to the property *

CLEANING:
Please reference the checkout checklist prior to leaving the property. The house is professionally cleaned between guests so it will be fresh and clean upon your arrival. All we ask is that you please leave the house in the same condition as when you arrived. We will take care of all linens and trash (which you will leave in designated areas). The cleaning fee covers the linen turnover/bed making, trash removal and some minor misc. items like stocking soap, paper towels, etc. If the house is not left in the same clean condition and additional cleaning is required we may have to charge extra to cover any added cost we incur from the cleaners.

PET POLICY:
We are animal lovers and this is a "Pet Friendly" property. However, this does NOT mean we allow any and all pets. If you have a pet that you would like to bring please share details about your pet along with a request to bring them with you. For liability reasons some general information is needed; size, age, breed, temperament , etc. Additionally, we ask that you please keep your furry friends off the furniture and leave the house/property in the same condition as when you arrived (with or without pets).

We do not have a fixed pet fee as this changes depending on the animal(s) and size of group, etc. Typically we charge $25-$50 per day. This fee does NOT cover damage to the property or any mess caused by the pet. We do expect any "mess" outside or brought into the house to be cleaned up.

To clarify, pets may be welcome at this property but not until after we have given written approval (prior to your booking).
