As posted, "Your reservation is NOT GUARANTEED UNTIL FULLY PAID. We list on several platforms in addition to Airbnb. If another guest books this property for any part of your reservation before fully paid, we will immediately have Airbnb cancel your reservation with no penalty to us and they may not notify you of the cancellation. Therefore, please DO NOT select the partial payment option unless you want to risk losing your reservation!" Also, any additional funds due within 24 hours via the Airbnb Resolution Center {as posted below} will not go through unless the reservation has been fully paid. If you have already checked the partial payment option, please immediately withdraw your reservation request and correctly resubmit it. Thank you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Guests with less than 3 {three} 5-star reviews or less than a 5-star rating are required to pay a $500 REFUNDABLE Damage Deposit. The Damage Deposit also applies to guests who reside outside the continental United States {$1,000 if both apply}, per their ID provided to the Owner. It is refunded via ZellePay 15 days after departure date {usually sooner for great guests!} using the Guest's provided E-mail address. It needs to be claimed before it expires since it is not resent. Therefore, the Guest should register their E-mail address with ZellePay in advance if they do not already have an account.

It must be paid within 24 hours or the reservation will not be honored and no refund will be provided.* If the Guest has not received it before then, it is their responsibility to find it at www.airbnb.com/resolutions or call Airbnb for support so it is paid before the deadline. Resolution Requests are only sent once. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If Your Reservation Includes a Federal or Popular American HOLIDAY or HOLIDAY WEEKEND, the Clearly Posted Holiday Minimum Nights Required and the Clearly Posted Holiday Premium Will Apply. The Owner will submit the Holiday Premium payment request, via the Airbnb Resolution Center, to the Guest AFTER the reservation has been confirmed. {It is also NOT included in the nightly rate or in the payment itemization}. It must be paid within 24 hours or the reservation will not be honored and no refund will be provided.* If the Guest has not received it before then, it is their responsibility to find it at www.airbnb.com/resolutions or call Airbnb for support so it is paid before the deadline.

There is no limit on the amount of dogs, the size of dogs, the weight of dogs, or the breed of dogs. However, the Guest Must Indicate If They Will Have A Dog When They Submit Their Reservation Request & Advise Via The Message Thread At The SAME Time If They Will Have Any Extra Dogs. Otherwise, an additional $50 fee will apply if the Rental Agreement needs to be re-drafted. It must be paid within 24 hours or the reservation will not be honored and no refund will be provided. The Owner will submit the additional Dog Fee payment request of $50 Per Dog, via the Airbnb Resolution Center, to the Guest AFTER the reservation has been confirmed.

Dog Fees are Non-Refundable, even if the Guest later decides not to bring them for any reason. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The posted Cleaning Fee is Non-Refundable, unless the Owner cancels the reservation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No Interior Smoking of Any Kind Allowed ~ No Illegal Activity Allowed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sorry ~ As a courtesy to our subsequent guests, no cooking with curry or other strong spices allowed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The posted non-negotiable 8 person maximum that this property sleeps/allows {per strict fire code} obviously includes children of ALL ages and your initial inquiry or reservation request must include them in the total number of guests. If your group will exceed this limit, you will need to book a different property or book an additional property. Please be aware that there are, of course, exterior cameras surrounding the property that document the ingress/egress of all occupants/pets. The violation of any rule will result in immediate eviction and/or forfeiture of all monies paid, including damage deposit. Therefore, DO NOT book this property if there will be more than 8 persons. Otherwise, YOU will need to immediately cancel the reservation and you will be subject to Airbnb's posted/non-negotiable cancellation policy. Since we no longer allow "Bait & Switch" Reservation Requests, an extra charge of $50 per person will apply if the total amount of persons stated in it is increased AFTER the booking is accepted/confirmed, even if it meets or falls below the maximum amount of persons allowed. It must be paid within 24 hours, via the Airbnb Resolution Request, or the reservation will not be honored and no refund will be provided.* If the Guest has not received it before then, it is their responsibility to find it at www.airbnb.com/resolutions so it is paid before the deadline. Thank you for your understanding and compliance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We, of course, cannot be responsible if there is any issue beyond our control involving access to/from the property due to snow, fallen tree, road closure, etc., and/or loss of electricity/water/WiFi/cable television. Accordingly, no refund or credit shall be provided. IF our other 3 bedroom cabin is available, we will gladly substitute it for the remaining nights at no extra charge other than an additional/non-refundable $175 cleaning fee, since a second departure cleaning will be required, that must be paid in advance via the Airbnb Resolution Center. The Guest agrees not to unfairly submit any type of negative review regarding this {or any other} situation that they were clearly made aware of in advance. As posted in the listing and again below, "All guests are strongly advised to purchase trip insurance from a separate entity." Sorry, as posted, EV charging is not permitted at this property. Please look up closest locations. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Be aware that this cabin is in a forest that, of course, has insects and wildlife {including bears}. Accordingly, a bug or mouse may slip in one of the doors, particularly when there are a lot of people in and out of the property. If there is a chance that this may be a problem for you and/or any of your housemates, we kindly suggest booking motel/hotel rooms in town instead so it does not negatively influence your review of our property in any way. {Be sure to carefully check their reviews before booking, as most are currently experiencing a severe housekeeping shortage}. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The entire property is thoroughly photographed and/or videotaped prior to the arrival of every Airbnb Guest. If the Guest is unhappy with the property for any legitimate reason within our control and it causes a REASONABLE problem with their stay, the Guest must advise us via the Airbnb message thread within 24 HOURS of their 4:00 PM ET check-in time with clear date and time-stamped photos or the property will be deemed acceptable. We, or someone on our behalf, will enter the property to promptly {within 24 hours or next business day} remedy any such reported problem. In this case, and/or we offer any refund/compensation, the Guest agrees not to unfairly submit any type of negative review OR unfairly mention any such issue within their review. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As long-time Superhosts, we continually strive to provide guests with a wonderful stay in a clean, comfortable, safe, and well-equipped cabin. Airbnb's 5-star rating system is NOT meant to indicate a luxury resort, but that the property was exactly as described in the listing and the host provided above average communication. Guest reviews are integral to our success. We greatly appreciate your support with a 5-star review after your departure if we successfully met, or exceeded, your expectations. There is a guest book at the chalet if you wish to leave a handwritten note as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SIGNED RENTAL AGREEMENT REQUIRED: The Guest must provide their current physical address and their regular/non-Airbnb E-mail address within 24 HOURS after their reservation has been confirmed so the Agreement can be drafted/E-mailed within 48 HOURS of receiving the information, or the reservation may not be honored and no refund may be provided.* It must be properly executed {printed/initialed/signed} and E-mailed back within 48 HOURS {24 HOURS if check-in date is one week or less away} of originally sent {Owner will have date and time-stamped proof}, or the reservation may not be honored and no refund may be provided.* The Owner is not responsible if the Guest does not check their SPAM file for the Agreement sent from the Owner's YellowstoneHomes E-mail address and/or provides an incorrect E-mail to the Owner. The Guest fully understands and agrees that no property entry instructions will be provided until after the Host has received the above stated Agreement and the below stated ID. The Host requires at least 24 hours to draft the Agreement AFTER all of the required information is received. Therefore, no credit will be issued to the Guest for any time they are denied entry due to their late compliance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In accordance with Airbnb's new whole house rental policy, for legal reasons, for insurance purposes, and just like car rental agencies require, the primary Guest who signs the Agreement must be at least 21 years old {current/valid government-issued photo ID required with Agreement}. No reservation will be honored and no refund will be provided to ANYONE who cannot prove that they are at least 21 after they book the property, unless they pay a $500 REFUNDABLE Damage Deposit in addition to any other required REFUNDABLE Damage Deposit. The Damage Deposit also applies to guests who reside outside the continental United States, per their ID provided to the Owner.* Also, third-party bookings are not allowed by Airbnb and by us. Therefore, the Guest must be present during each night of their reservation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Required documents must be provided directly to the Owner, via E-mail only, from the Guest. {Airbnb does NOT share the Guest's ID with the owner}. Please do not book this property if you plan to violate any of the posted House Rules and/or do not want to sign a Rental Agreement, then later complain in your property review about having to sign one ~ or about ANYTHING else you were made aware of {including provided location} in the listing PRIOR to booking. We have learned that this type of guest is better suited for a motel or campground rather than a nice home that the owner understandably wants to protect. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The terms of the Rental Agreement legally govern the reservation. Any violated rule stated in it and/or these House Rules will be subject to the Guest's immediate eviction with NO refund of any monies paid and/or the loss of their damage deposit{s}. Please be aware that per Airbnb's TOS, a Guest that violates an accepted House Rule is ineligible to leave any type of negative review. Doing so may get them permanently banned from the platform after it is removed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All guests are strongly advised to purchase trip insurance from a separate entity. {Neither Airbnb nor we offer it since we are not licensed insurance providers}. Please enter "ConsumersAdvocate" and then "travel insurance" in a search engine for the highest rated companies that will protect your reservation funds in the event of a problem relating to health, illness, injury, death, weather, electricity/water/WiFi/television outage, burn ban, transportation, road closure, attraction closure, event cancellation, employment, travel mates, pets, relatives, or ANY other emergency/extenuating circumstance. Be sure to choose a "Cancel for Any Reason" policy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *The Guest understands that "the reservation may not be honored and no refund may be provided" despite the Owner NOT officially canceling the reservation, since the Owner should not get unfairly penalized due to the Guest's violation of the {twice} accepted House Rules. To reiterate, CANCELLATIONS MUST BE INITIATED BY THE GUEST if they will not/did not comply with any of the accepted House Rules ~ no exceptions. Also per Airbnb's TOS, if the guest never stayed at the property, they are not allowed to leave a review. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ We reserve the right to decline/block travelers who are local {reside less than 3 hours away}, who have posted any negative property Reviews, and/or who have any negative Reviews posted about them. We also reserve the right to decline/block travelers who do not promptly reply to messages and/or display poor language/communication/reading skills for obvious reasons. ~
