refundable deposit on approved pets at the Hillside only. Deposits will be
refunded after check-out and inspection. Discovery of an unauthorized pet will
result in a $100.00 fee. If you are bringing a pet to a pet friendly cabin we
ask that you clean-up after your pets and that pets are not to be left
unattended inside the cabins. Unattended pets must be kenneled while inside the
cabin.
SMOKING: Smoking
is prohibited inside any of our cabins. Discovery of smoking inside a cabin will
result in a $300 fee charged to your credit card.
EQUIPMENT
AND
FURNISHINGS: Cabins that do not have cell service have a land line
provided. Calling cards must be used for long distance calls. Local and
emergency service is available. Incoming calls may be received. Equipment
failures and problems with the unit must be reported immediately. Our emergency
number (s) should be used after hours for emergencies such as no heat, no water,
etc. Other equipment failures such as hot tubs, gas fireplace, TV, etc. should
be left on our office voice mail. Repairs will be made as quickly as possible.
LINENS
AND
SUPPLIES: Bed linens are bath towels are provided along with basic
kitchenware and utensils. We supply trash bags, paper towels, bathroom tissue,
dish and hand soap. Personal items such as shampoo or hair dryers are not
supplied so please bring your own.
OUTDOOR GRILLS:
Most cabins have either a gas or charcoal grill. For charcoal grills you
must bring your own charcoal and starter fluid. Gas is supplied for gas grills.
FIREPLACES: Gas
or wood burning fireplaces are not to be used April through September. Gas
fireplaces are not supplied with propane from May-August. Firewood may be
ordered through us or you may bring your own. At no time may you cut wood on the
premises. If you bring your own firewood it must be bundled and cut.
OCCUPANCY AND
HOUSEKEEPING: Please limit occupancy to what is posted on each cabins
description. Our occupancy rates apply and will be charged if additional people
are discovered. Hot tub covers must remain on the hot tubs and we require that
all trash be placed in the outside containers at check-out and latch the lid in
place. Do not leave loose trash inside the outdoor receptacles or a $75.00
clean-up fee will apply. Leave the kitchen clean and lock all windows and doors.
We ask that all keys be returned to the lockbox at check-out. Lost keys are

temperatures greater than 104. Switches to increase or decrease the jet speed
may be adjusted. No other settings should be adjusted. Our hot tubs are
routinely changed and continuously sanitized. Hot tubs left excessively dirty
may be subject to a cleanup fee of $100. Guests that are staying 3 or more days
will be contacted to have a staff member check their hot tub chemicals and
remove trash from the cabin. Do not sit on hot tub covers. This can break and
damage the lid. Damage to hot tub covers will result in a $350.00 replacement
fee.
DAMAGE
BY
GUESTS: In the event of damages or
extra cleaning requirements created by guests, additional charges may be applied
to the credit card on file with our office.
WILDLIFE
AND
PESTS: While we routinely treat our cabins, we are in the middle of
the woods and it is likely that you may encounter insects or spiders during your
stay. We cannot refund your reservation if you see insects or spiders during
your stay. Many critters live in the woods. Do not approach or feed wildlife or
leave food on decks or porches as it may invite unwanted guests.
LEFT
BEHIND
ITEMS: Personal items left in the cabin are not automatically
returned. We will remove them and store them for 30 days. You will need to call
and provide shipping information. Guests are responsible for any shipping
charges to return items.
