The Cottage on the Lake: Rental info
|
|
|
Some essential things to know...
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your requested Rental Dates:
▪ these are
considered to be the nights you plan to stay over. For example, if
from Saturday to Friday, you'd arrive on Saturday afternoon on or after 3:00 PM,
and depart on the next Saturday by 11:00 AM. (We're flexible with these
times, as bookings allow)
The holding deposit:
▪ a $100.
holding deposit reserves the cottage for the dates you book. By
default, the holding deposit is non-refundable. However, should you
need to cancel, we will
gladly refund the holding deposit if we are able to re-book your reserved
dates.
|
|
Rental payment:
▪ the balance of the rent is due on or before your arrival
date, and is usually paid by personal check. Please see the
Contact Us! page for the mailing address. |
|
| |
Linens and towels:
▪ guests are to provide their own linens (sheets, pillow covers,
and towels), we provide the blankets. The bunks were equipped
with new mattresses and pillows in May, 2006.
|
|
| |
Pets are welcome! (just please
clean-up after them)
|
|
| |
Drinking water:
▪ it's
suggested that you bring your own drinking water. The
cottage draws its water from a well, and we cannot guarantee its purity.
|
|
| |
Firewood:
▪ guests are to provide their own firewood. This website
will be updated with local providers. It's OK to use fallen branches for
kindling, but trees (dead or alive) are not to be cut down without prior
permission.
|
|
| |
Heating the cottage:
▪ the cottage isn't insulated, and
is therefore only offered
during the warmer months of May through October. For heat we provide a
10,000 BTU/hr kerosene heater that can be safely used indoors (please first read the operating instructions). The
kerosene is kept in a blue, 5-gallon container, which may need
refilling. While the cottage also has a fireplace, it is
most often used for ambiance, as it doesn't heat as efficiently as the
kerosene heater. There is also a ceiling fan for a cooling breeze or forcing
the warm air down. Please do not use the stove/oven for heating. |
|
| |
Cleaning before your departure:
▪ it is your
responsibility to clean after yourself before your departure. Please leave the
cottage and grounds at least as clean as you found them. We provide garbage
bags, and a vacuum cleaner is kept in
the pump-room area. We thank you in advance. |
