Cleaning & Damages:

  2. A Cleaning Deposit is required to cover unusual cleaning expenses associated with your stay. This Deposit is most easily handled via Credit Card guarantee, and is invoked only if we encounter excessive cleaning situations and inform you of relevant charges.
  3. Cleaning fees are $15 per hour, up to the Deposit maximum (the Deposit maximum varies per size/type of unit and is specified in Reservation Confirmations or upon arrival). Damage to units and/or grounds is charged at cost of repairs.
  4. No smoking in any unit and pets must be approved and incur a $20 fee; fees may be invoked to cover issues arising from these situations.

Check-In:

Check-in time begins at 3 p.m. Check-in prior to this time may be possible, but is not guaranteed. Early check-in on a Sunday or on a holiday Monday is very rarely a possibility. Please call our office the evening prior to arrival to verify possibility of early check-in.

Your reservation deposit guarantees your unit for late arrival. Staff is generally available to personally check-in late arrivals until 8 p.m. After this time, you will find an envelope with your name written on it taped to the office door. The envelope will contain a key and map to your unit, and a request that you visit the office in the morning to complete the registration process.
