GUEST ACCESS
Guest's have access to everything on their floor. You are booking the first level of a 2-level house. The second level of the House is not accessible and is not part of your booking.
HOUSE RULES
All I ask is that you treat this residence the exact same way that you would want a guest to treat your own home ;) Please also acknowledge the following:
1. Based on past experiences, I do not host groups who are all 21 years of age or younger. If your group is 21 years of age or younger, please do not place a reservation without written pre-approval from me. Failure to do so will result in termination of your reservation and full charge of your security deposit.
2. Please note that I only hand keys to the person who booked the reservation and you must show valid picture ID.
3. All guests must be accounted for in the reservation. This means all guests stepping foot on the property at any point in time counts as a guest--in other words, the definition of a guest is not limited to only those people planning on sleeping inside the unit, but to all guests planning to step foot on the property line at any given time.
For example, if 8 people are going to "hang out" in the backyard during the day, but only 2 people plan on sleeping inside the unit, then the guest count selected during the booking should be "8" not "2". Any extra guests not disclosed before arrival will lead to an immediate termination of the reservation and full charge of your damage deposit.
4. No parties without pre-approval: I live on the second floor of the house with my family. Therefore, parties will be detected. If this rule is not followed, the full security deposit will be charged and you will be immediately removed from the unit. I will consider your request if you ask for permission first and specify details of what the party entails.
5. Not for commercial use or special occasions without pre-approval (weddings, bachelor parties, birthdays, commercials, bridal showers, photo shoots, etc.). I will consider your request if you notify me in advance. Failure to inform me in advance will lead to a termination of your reservation and full charge of your security deposit.
6. You agree NOT to have any sort of party, event, or loud music outside the house without pre-approval. If the city or police arrive at my home due to a noise violation, you agree to pay the city/police fine that might be issued.
7. No pets/animals are allowed on the property. If this rule is not followed, the full security deposit will be charged and you will be removed from the unit.
8. Please note that this is a smoke-free/drug free environment. If any smoking/drugs are detected within the unit, the full damage deposit will be charged and you will be removed from the unit. Smoking cigarettes outside of the house is permitted if you advise me first and I will show you a designated area to do so.
9. No excessive noise or loud music. Quiet hours start at 10:00pm. If any noise complaints are reported by my neighbours, the full security deposit will be charged and you will be immediately removed from the unit.
10. Please ensure to check-out on time in order to avoid a $50 late check-out fee--I need to have my cleaners clean the unit on time for the next guest to check-in. If you require an earlier check-in or a later check-out please request it in advance and I will do my best to accommodate you. Unless otherwise discussed, any guest who is still in the residence/building after 12 pm will be charged for an extra night. This does not apply if I have approved a late check-out in advance.
11. Guests take full responsibility for any accidents, injuries, or illnesses that occur while on the premises or its facilities. By accepting this reservation, it is agreed that all guests are expressly assuming the risk of any harm arising from their use of the premises. Guests recognize that they may personally purchase insurance to protect themselves in such events.
12. Just to confirm that you've read over the house rules, please state "I've read your house rules" when making an inquiry or accomplishing an Instant Book.
Most importantly, enjoy your stay and have fun!
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
I would like to know who I'm hosting prior to accepting a reservation for my entire home. Part of the reason why I'm on VRBO/HomeAway is because I enjoy meeting people from all over the world. To that end, please tell me something about yourselves and the purpose of your trip when inquiring. Specifically, please introduce yourself and advise who will be accompanying you and mention the ages of everyone in the group--that being said, if everyone is over the age of 25, then just mention that.
I'm happy to be as hands-on or off as needed. If you're new to Vancouver/Maple Ridge, I would be more than happy to suggest restaurants, shopping areas, and local hot spots.
Either myself, my brother, my mother, my father, or a family member will check you into the residence during your visit.
