If you would like to explore bringing your dog on your trip, be sure to contact us PRIOR to booking in order to learn about Mighty Vacay's pet policies and house rules. By booking, you affirm to accepting our pet policies and fees in the event you choose to bring your furbaby with you.
QUIET HOURS
Observe quiet hours outdoors from 10 P.M. CST to 8 A.M. CST
BEDS & SOFA BED
Do not jump on the beds or sofa bed. These furnishings will (and have) broken when guests have left their kids to jump and play on them. You will be charged to replace any damaged furniture that shows misuse.
THERMOSTATS
In order to maintain our HVAC system, thermostats can only be set to 67-79 degrees year round.
KEEP DOORS AND WINDOWS CLOSED
It is very critical that you keep all doors and windows closed during your stay. Due to the high humidity and constant use of air conditioning inside the home, leaving the doors and windows open will cause the HVAC system to freeze over and cause water damage to the walls, ceilings, and electronic door locks with condensation build-up. The HVAC system automatically turns off when windows/doors are left open.
PESTS
While the house is maintained monthly by a professional pest control service, you may still come across some local critters during your stay with us. If you see little mice under the house or off the sand, please do not be alarmed, it's completely normal. These are Alabama Beach Mouse and they are federally protected as a federally endangered species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Therefore, pest control CANNOT exterminate these creatures. Help minimize your exposure to these pests (and keep air conditioning inside) by keeping the kitchen, dining, and all outdoor areas clean from food debris and all external doors and windows closed at all times.
NO FISH CLEANING OUTDOORS
While fishing is a popular pastime for many of our guests, we do not allow any fish cleaning on the property, including the outdoor table. That table top is to be used for supporting grilling and outdoor dining uses only. The main reason we cannot allow fish cleaning on site is that it attracts Alabama Beach mice onto the property. These pests are federally protected as endangered species. So once they make it onto the property, we cannot exterminate them. No fish cleaning helps us stay pest free.
UTILITY DISRUPTIONS
Electricity and/or internet services may get interrupted during storms. Services usually resume in 1-2 hours.
