Cleaning Fees at Vermont Cottage Lake Amherst

CLEANING FEE

You have no doubt chosen to rent a private home because it makes your vacation private. Please keep in mind that whole house private rentals are very different from a hotel, motel, or hostel. Private homes also save money.

Our prices are based on a comparison to BEDROOM rates at the local hostel and nearby hotels. Put it in perspective. Prices range from $55/bunk bed (shared room) at the hostel to $370 for a single king bed room at nearby hotel/inn and upwards. We are a little bit more than a hostel (where you share a bunk room with 5 other people) and a lot less than a local hotel/inn. Therefore, the kitchen, living areas, recreation amenities are all basically free amenities if you really think about it. The bulk of the cleaning is about laundry, bed-making, and cleaning the bedrooms & bathrooms. Please be respectful and leave the place in tidy condition.
