PARTIES Unauthorized parties or events will result in a fine of up to $1000. Excessive noise will not be tolerated. Please be respectful of the neighbors; they should not hear any noise or music after 10 pm. Failure to comply will result in being asked to leave and in the forfeiture of your reservation remainder.

FALSIFIED RESERVATION Any reservation obtained under false pretense will be subject to forfeiture of the reservation deposit, damage deposit, and/or balance of rental payment. HOUSEKEEPING There is no daily maid service. Additional cleaning fees will be due if cleaning involves the removal of excessive debris, excessive spillage or staining of carpets, or uncleaned cooking grease and stains. We reserve the right to charge guests who do not comply with housekeeping rules. Specifically, we reserve the right to charge guests if any dishes are not cleaned in the dishwasher or by hand, if all trash is not bagged and cinched, and if any perishable food has not yet been disposed of. UTILITIES No compensation will be given for a temporary outage of electricity, gas, water, cable, or internet. Outages will be reported immediately, and all efforts will be made to restore them as soon as possible. SECURITY CAMERAS Security cameras are solely for visual monitoring outside the property and are not present inside. The tenant accepts outside monitoring and agrees not to tamper with the security system. NONSMOKING UNIT Smoking is strictly prohibited on the property and on the premises. Smoking fines are $1500, and you will incur an additional charge for deodorizing if any residual evidence of smoking is found. Tampering with the smoke detector will also result in a $1500 fine. SLEEPING CAPACITY/DISTURBANCES All occupants will be required to vacate the premises, forfeit the rental fee, and be fined $100+ for any of the following: Occupancy exceeding the sleeping capacity without authorization from the property manager, people using the premises for any illegal activity, causing damage to the premises rented or to any of the neighboring properties and any other acts which interfere with neighbors' right to quiet enjoyment of their premises including making noise in the hot tub during closing hours.

PARKING The premises are limited to one car per bedroom; boats, jet skis, trailers, or RVs are prohibited. PETS All pets must be disclosed at the time of reservation, and a fee will be charged. Please provide documentation for service animals. Per Oregon state law and for reservation purposes, ESA animals do not qualify as service animals and must be accounted for as a guest's pet. See Oregon Government DAS policies for more details. Any animal not disclosed will be assumed to be a pet. To help us maintain a clean and comfortable space for all guests, animals are not allowed on beds or furniture, and we ask that you please clean up after your pet, including any waste left in the yard. If additional cleaning is required due to pet hair, stains, odor, or pet waste, an extra fee of $50–$250 may be charged, depending on the level of cleaning needed. Thank you for helping us keep the space fresh and enjoyable for everyone. LOST & FOUND We understand that guests occasionally leave items behind, and we do our best to help when possible. However, due to the high turnover of guests and limited on-site storage, we’ve established the following policy to ensure fairness and efficiency: 1. Reporting Lost Items Guests must contact us within 7 days of check-out to report a lost item. After this period, we cannot guarantee that the item will be located or retained. 2. Retrieval & Shipping If an item is found, we’re happy to return it via mail. Guests are responsible for all shipping costs and a $40 handling fee to cover time, packaging, and coordination. We do not deliver or arrange pickup. 3. Items Not Retrieved Unclaimed items will be disposed of or donated after 14 days. Perishable, opened, or low-value items (e.g., toiletries, chargers, food, clothing basics) may be discarded immediately. 4. Valuables High-value items (jewelry, electronics, wallets, IDs) will be stored securely for up to 14 days while we await guest instructions. We are not liable for any loss or damage after check-out.

As our guest, you will have full and private access to the entire guest house. The unit has its own separate entrance, and you can come and go as you please with our simple self-check-in process. Please note that the courtyard area located behind the guest house is private and reserved exclusively for the residents of the main house.
