House Rules
​​​​​​​This property requires a separate rental agreement to be reviewed and signed after booking. A link to the full agreement will be sent through email or the the message thread in your booking confirmation. It includes guest and property details, stay dates, fees, house rules (e.g., no parties, no smoking, pet rules), cancellation terms, and guest/host responsibilities. Please note that check-in instructions will only be released after the rental agreement is signed.

☞︎ No smoking is allowed (including vaping) anywhere on the property. If you smoke inside the home, you will be charged $500. You will be charged an increase in a cleaning fee, and you will be charged for any damages.

☞︎ Person booking and checking in must be at least 25 years old to reserve and must occupy the rental property throughout the whole booking.

☞︎ No parties or events are allowed. We are located in a residential community and, although this is may be a vacation destination, the area is predominantly families and professionals. This is doubtless part of its appeal to you too! Between the hours of 10pm and 8am noise should be kept to a minimum.

☞︎ Maximum occupancy of 10 people. Off-site visitors are not permitted without prior permission and are subject to a $100 fee per extra guest.

☞︎ Pets are allowed. Up to two dogs under 50 pounds each are welcome for an additional fee plus taxes per pet, per stay. Dogs may only be left unattended in the home if they are crated. Please remove any dog waste from public areas and from the yard before leaving. An additional $250 cleaning fee will be charged in cases where dog waste has not been removed from the yard or pets have been allowed on furniture. Additional fees may be assessed for any damage or excessive cleaning due to pets.

☞︎ Fireplaces cannot be used between April 1 and September 30. Use of the fireplace during this time will result in a $250 fine. Be sure the flue is open. Please extinguish the fire and close the screen before leaving the home or going to bed. Turn off gas logs (if applicable), but leave the pilot light on. Do not move the gas logs in the fireplace. NEVER LEAVE A FIRE UNATTENDED WHEN LEAVING THE HOME OR GOING TO BED.

☞︎Guest acknowledges that the walking path to the creek and the exterior property can become somewhat overgrown during certain times of year and includes uneven terrain, holes, roots, and natural obstacles. Guests should use caution, wear appropriate footwear, and supervise children carefully.

☞︎ Guest acknowledges that the home is located in the mountains of North Georgia. As such, you are likely to encounter wildlife (deer, bears, raccoons, snakes and bugs of various types, including wasps and/or hornets, etc). Guest agrees to not feed wildlife and keep a safe distance.

☞︎ We follow our stated cancellation policies under all circumstances. We highly recommend guests purchase travel insurance to cover weather-related travel issues (snow storms, heat waves etc.) and illnesses that may arise and interrupt travel.

☞︎ If an item is left behind, we're happy to help return it. A $75 flat fee applies to locate, package, and ship forgotten items within the continental U.S. Payment is required before the item is shipped. Additional fees may apply for oversized, heavy, or expedited shipments. Items not requested within 14 days may be donated or discarded at our discretion.

☞︎Unapproved late checkouts may result in a $50 fee per hour (or partial hour) past the scheduled checkout time. If the delay interferes with the cleaning schedule or the next guest's arrival, additional charges may apply.

☞︎Neighborhood Amenity Passes for 8 guests are included with your stay. Additional passes may be purchased from the HOA office during office hours for $59 each. Passes must be purchased with a check or money order. Lost passes will incur a $500 replacement fee, per pass.
