* Our pet approval process is simple—we just ask a few quick questions to get to know your pet better. You can find more details in the House Rules section of the listing. Please note that a pet fee applies per stay. You’ll see the fee automatically when you add your pet to the reservation, or we can add it afterward through a change request.
**Management Fee = Hot Tub Fee
To keep base rates lower, the hot tub is optional. Since most guests use it, the fee is automatically added. If you don’t plan to use it, let us know at least two weeks before arrival, and we’ll refund the hot tub (management) fee.
A signed waiver is required per our insurance. Please follow all hot tub rules in the rental agreement and posted at the cabin.
