VACATION RENTAL INFORMATION DEPOSITS: We require an advance rent deposit of $300.00 in order to hold your reservation. A $25 booking fee will be charged for all reservations. We also charge a one time non-refundable cleaning fee for which we do the house cleaning and laundry after your departure. All ‘pet friendly’ homes have a non-refundable "pet fee" for pets, and pets cannot remain in the homes unattended. Deposits are due by return mail, unless otherwise stated, and included along with the completed form, within 10 business days after receiving the form. If we do not receive deposits within the 10 day period, your reservation will automatically be cancelled. We accept personal checks and credit cards. Balance is due 30 days before arrival date. ROOM TAX: Also included in your total balance due, is a room or lodging tax applicable to whichever city/or county in which you are staying. REFUNDS: You will need to CANCEL your reservation 30 days* before arrival date in order to receive a deposit refund. Otherwise, we will hold your deposit until the reservation date, while attempting to re-book the house. If we are able to re- book the house, we will gladly refund your deposit. THERE ARE NO REFUNDS FOR EARLY CHECKOUTS. *CANCELLATIONS FOR JULY AND AUGUST MUST BE MADE BY MAY 1. CHECK-IN: 4:00 P.M.: Early check-ins are a challenge during the busy summer months, since quite often another tenant is checking out that very same morning. We trust that you understand the logistical time sensitive nature to preparing each home, so that it is clean and ready for each guest! **Your house keys will be either under the door mat, or in a key box on the house, and you will be given the key box code with the paid in full receipt.** Cleaning supplies are provided for use during your stay, as well as paper products, linens, towels, dishes and cookware. Just bring your food! WE WILL ASK YOU TO PUT OUT THE TRASH CANS FOR PICK UP, ON TRASH DAY, IF YOU’RE HERE. WE’LL REMIND YOU OF THAT LITTLE CHORE WHEN YOU ARRIVE! PET POLICIES: Please pick up after your dog. Doggy bags are furnished and there will be a $50.00 charge if we have to pickup for you. Please do not leave dogs unattended in the home. Dogs are never allowed on furniture or beds. If there is a flea infestation after your departure you will be charged $100.00. There is a reason we do not allow dogs, even those visiting for the day in non-dog friendly homes. Many people are highly allergic to dogs and dog dander. Please respect this rule. There will be a $250.00 charge if we find evidence of a dog in a non-dog friendly home. There is a leash law in our area and on Oregon State beaches. (Pets are defined as DOGS only. No cats, birds, snakes, lizards etc.) Crab Cooking-Burning Driftwood-Beach Fires-Fireworks: Cooking crab in a home is strictly prohibited, the smell is impossible to remove. There are facilities at the Port of Alsea . Please do not burn driftwood in the fireplace. Beach fires are permitted if they are built away from the beach grass and on the ocean sand, west of the beach grass, which is highly flammable. Fireworks are NOT permitted on Oregon State beaches. CHECK OUT: 11:00 A.M.: Although a housekeeper will be cleaning after your stay, we ask you to start a load of towels, wash your dishes, put your trash in the outside cans, and take your food from the refrigerator when you leave.

Then, surprisingly warm and calm days after the storms, with interesting tides. However…along with the fun sometimes come power outages, water line breaks, interrupted cable TV, and phone service. We have candle and matches in our houses, but the rest is out of our control. We don’t give refunds for weather-related inconveniences, but we will certainly try to do whatever we can to help you adjust to these situations. We encourage you to bring books you haven’t had a chance to read yet, games, or art projects that you want to work on…..Binoculars, books on whales, or birds, hiking gear, rain gear, and a small bucket….For shells & agates!! And…if you’ve made a reservation but find, at the last minute, that the passes are closed, or you are snowed in and can’t get over the mountains to the Coast, we’ll gladly refund your deposit and/or arrange a later visit for you.
