POLICIES/RENTAL AGREEMENT FOR BEACHCOMBER'S COTTAGE
Thank you for your interest in the Beachcomber's Cottage. We find that guests who take the time to read this information are fully informed about their and our rental obligations. Here are the policies and requirements for renting our cottage. Payment for your rental indicates that you consent to these policies.
Payment: We accept checks or money orders only. Reservations requested within three months of arrival date require prepayment in full. For reservations requested more than three months in advance, prepayment may be divided into two monthly payments.
Deposit: There is a separate $150 security deposit refundable by check 15 days after your departure if the cottage is left the way it was found and policies have been adhered to.
Rates: Current rates are posted on the website www.beachcomberscottage.us. Rates are subject to change without notice; the rate at the time of the reservation will be honored.
Cancellations/Reschedules: If you cancel more than 30 days before arrival, your rental payment will be refunded in full. If you cancel within 30 days of arrival, we will refund the payment for any nights that are re-rented. If the cottage cannot be re-rented, there is no refund of rent. In all cases, your security deposit will be refunded.
Number of Guests/Conduct of Guests: The maximum number of guests is four, including both adults and children. The cottage is not for social events and is meant to be occupied only by those who have paid to stay there. If there is excessive noise, illegal activity, or evidence of policy violations you may be asked to vacate the premises without refund.
Check-in Time 3:00pm; Check-out Time 11:00am: Please do not arrive early since the cottage is being prepared for your stay. Likewise, your prompt check-out is appreciated.
Pets and Smoking: No smoking and no pets are allowed.
Damage, Missing Items: Any damage to the cottage or its contents or missing items will be deducted from your deposit at repair or replacement cost. If there is such a charge, an explanation will be mailed to you within 15 days.
Housekeeping/Supplies: It is the renters' responsibility to leave the cottage as it was found (with the exception of the linens and towels). A starter supply of expendable supplies is provided. Basic housekeeping supplies are provided to do your own cleaning during your stay. Excessive cleaning will be charged at $45/hr.
Security of the Cabin: When you rent the cabin, you assume responsibility for it and its contents, as well as your personal property. Always lock the doors and windows when you leave.
Risks/Safety: You are enjoying this property at your own risk. As a privately owned property, the management and owner are not responsible for accidents or injuries to guests, or for guests' valuables lost, stolen, or left on premises, and reserve the right to refuse anyone service. Neither the management nor the owner have inspected the property, except for routine damage deposit refund inspections, and are not knowledgeable of its condition.
