The TEMPORARY HOLD is not charged to your credit card and may remain in effect for up to fourteen (14) days after your stay.

DAMAGE DEPOSIT HOLD VOID: Cabins Plus More truly hopes you enjoy your stay and wants to be able to Void the HOLD on the $250 Damage Deposit.

Parents: Do not call and book a cabin for your under-aged children. The person over 25 years of age or older, making the reservation, must occupy the cabin rental during the entire stay.   We DO NOT rent to someone of 25+ years old, while the remaining guests in the group are in their lower 20's and high teens.  We feel the Responsibility Level of this age group is mostly slim to none and Responsibility and Respect is a requirement for staying in our cabin rentals.

Prevent fires from starting in the garbage cans due to smoldering cigarette butts. If cigarette butts are found on around the cabin property, additional cleaning fees may be incurred. Smoking is NOT allowed inside the cabins at any given time. Smoking is not allowed by the hot tub in order to prevent ashes from burning holes in hot tub cover.

LEAVING THE CABIN FAIRLY CLEAN: The cabin will be clean when you arrive, and we request that you leave it in overall good condition when you leave. If the cabin requires an excessive amount of cleaning (over and above the standard cabin cleaning process) due to the fact that you or your guests left the cabin in an unusual state, an extra cleaning fee may be charged to your credit card or you will be billed.  i.e., if you leave the stove-top covered with dried up food or overage pot spills, you will incur additional fees for our cleaning professionals to spend more time cleaning your food off.  Clean up after yourself, and there will be no problems with excessive cleaning issues.
