CANCELLATION POLICY Our rental contract will specify that GUEST can cancel at any time regardless of the Airbnb cancellation policy. If the GUEST cancels the reservation more than 48 hours after the initial booking (provided it is less than 14 days prior to arrival), the rent & host fees paid minus a [$75] administrative charge may be refunded if the same or partial dates are re-rented. If re-rented for lesser amount, the difference will not be refunded. We highly recommend you purchase travel insurance to cover any losses. NOISE ORDINANCE: This is a family home. We encourage our guests to have fun, but please be respectful of our very sweet neighbors who appreciate peace and quiet and keep the noise to a minimum at all times. Even though we are far away from neighbors, noise has a way of carrying. A noise & smoke monitoring device both inside and out will inform us if noise levels exceed those allowed by the city or cigarette / pot or vaping is present inside the house. We ask that you keep outdoor music family friendly and at appropriate levels as to not disrupt peace and quiet of the neighborhood. Everyone should be indoors by 10pm. These do not record audio; they simply detect decibel levels and cigarette or vaping smoke. WILDLIFE & MAINTENANCE Our home is in a rural residential neighborhood with a large lot and a lot of wildlife. You will often see squirrels, gophers and lizards in the front and back yard. Please do not feed or approach any wildlife. There will be a lot of insects, bugs and other creatures that give the property its wonderful relaxing country feel. While we stay on top of pest maintenance, we ask you to expect that bugs may enter the home when doors are left open, get tracked in on shoes and luggage and are part of life in the country. There will not be any refunds or cancellations in regard to normal bugs & wildlife. We appreciate your understanding of this. We are not responsible for injuries on the property. Please also don’t allow your animals to roam unattended to avoid dangerous wildlife. SAFETY CONSIDERATION: Please read safety considerations at the bottom of this listing. Please use a leash at all times unless in the dog run or bring a pen for off leash outside lounging for your dog. Keep track of droppings & pick up & dispose immediately.
