All reservations require a deposit of 50% of the entire stay. Deposits may be made by credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover). We do not accept American Express.  Credit cards are charged when the reservation is made, excpet for reservations that fall in the next calendar year.  Deposits for reservations in the next calendar year are collected in the following January.

Your balance is due upon check out. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, traveler’s checks, and cash for the remaining balance. If you would like to pay by personal check, we require a credit card number for our records. Your card will not be charged unless a check is returned. There is a $40 fee for returned checks. We are unable to accept checks from a non-US bank.

We request that you cancel your reservations with a minimum of 14 days notice prior to your scheduled arrival date. If cancelled with more than 14 days notice, a full refund of the deposit (minus a $50 processing fee) will be returned to you upon cancellation. If a reservation is canceled within 14 days of the arrival date, the deposit will be refunded (minus a $50 processing fee) only if we are able to rebook the room for the entire length of the reservation. There are no refunds for “no shows” or early departures.  A “no show” is defined as any cancellation that occurs within 48 hours of check-in.
