2 GUEST MAXIMUM OCCUPANCY, NO EXCEPTIONS due to insurance provisions. We have cleaners and maintenance people on the property every day for one reason or another - PLEASE do not try to sneak people in, it will be embarrassing and awkward for all involved.
QUIET HOURS are strictly observed between 10pm-8am. That means no music that anyone outside of your cabin can hear, no yelling, and no hanging out with music or being loud outside. You can quietly stargaze at all hours - but NO AUDIBLE NOISE after 10pm.
NO SMOKING INDOORS - of any kind!!! But FOR REAL THOUGH! You will be charged an EXTRA CLEANING FEE if you smoke indoors - and believe me, we can smell it. This is why an extra cleaning fee is charged - it takes a lot of work to get the smell out before the next guest arrives.
420 friendly ***OUTSIDE ONLY*** But FOR REAL THOUGH! You will be charged an EXTRA CLEANING FEE if you smoke indoors - and believe me, we can smell it. This is why an extra cleaning fee is charged - it takes a lot of work to get the smell out before the next guest arrives.
Tobacco Cigarettes must be smoked OFF PROPERTY... feel free to take a walk down the street - but please do not smoke around communal areas - this is a WELLNESS space, please respect that. THC is allowed OUTDOORS in our private and communal areas because of its proven health benefits.
FIRM CHECK OUT TIME of 11am. We have a contract with the cleaning service that does not accommodate late check-outs. A $50/per hour fee will be charged for checkouts after 11am to cover the fees that will be charged by the cleaning service, thank you in advance for your understanding. These fees will be taken out of your security deposit.
If you STAIN something, SAY SOMETHING. If you BREAK something, SAY SOMETHING. Let us know ASAP when something is stained or broken. We understand accidents happen, and if we see that you've done your best to help us take care of it (ie: trying to get the stain out yourself, and letting us know it exists so the cleaner can attend to it 1st thing OR if a glass breaks, just say something so we can try to get it replaced). For simple accidents like that, we won't charge you if you SAY SOMETHING. If you leave surprise stains or breakage that makes my cleaners have to scramble to replace because they weren't expecting it - then most likely you will be charged. So, SAY SOMETHING. Thank you!
BIOHAZARD WASTE (ie: vomit/blood) & sheet stains NOT immediately reported to us PLUS reasonably attended to by the guest (ie: evidence you tried to get the stain out yourself or at least soak it in water) WILL be subject to additional cleaning fees. Please remember this isn't a hotel - it's a personal space we are sharing with you - please treat it with respect.
EXCESSIVE TRASH/FILTH will be met with additional cleaning fees added to your bill.
NO PARTIES - seriously though. We live down the street, and a tenant lives on-site as our backup - please don't make things awkward and have us knock on your door and keep your deposit...
**NO LOUD MUSIC EVER EVER EVER** - this is a MEDITATION and WELLNESS space. We have noise monitors that monitor decibel levels to keep the property mellow for all the cabins on the property... please don't be "that person" ruining the peaceful vibe for your fellow wellness-minded travelers.
NO ADDITIONAL GUESTS - only registered guests are allowed on the property. You MUST inform us in advance if ANYONE else will be visiting the property to get proper approval - this is for the safety and security of all our guests.
Please WASH DISHES before you leave - this not only helps prevent insect infestation, but honestly it's just an "AirBnB folk" type of thing. This isn't a hotel - we are sharing a magical and personal space with you, please treat it as you would a dear friend's house and all will be well. Thank you!
NO REFUNDS for stays when there is snow or a storm in the forecast unless the mountain is IMPASSABLE. If the roads are open, NO REFUNDS. Power shutoffs due to high winds or tree maintenance can happen without warning. In the event of a power shut-off, we provide emergency lanterns and alternative heat sources - we do not offer refunds.
We are SO THRILLED to have you drop into the energy of the mountains and rejuvenate body and soul. Sending you much love as you prepare for your journey.
Love, Marisa & the Wildland Cabins Team
