LIABILITY
Willow Pond Lodge and Lake House are located on high bank bluffs with ponds and a small lake on the property. These properties are not suitable for unsupervised children. Renters accept all responsibility for the safety of their children, and agree not to hold owners or staff of Willow Pond Lodge liable for accidents, injuries, illnesses, or issues incurred in relation with use of facilities. All renters are required to sign a Hold Harmless Agreement prior to rental. Renter is responsible for ensuring that signed forms are received by owners prior to rental commencement.
CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUT
Rental period begins at 4 PM and ends at 10 AM. This allows time for the Willow Pond staff to prepare the house for the next rental. A $75 per hour overtime charge will be deducted from security deposit in cases of tardiness. Please contact our onsite manager a week prior to your arrival to coordinate your check-in time. A walk through of the house with explanations and details about the facilities will take place. The conditions of the house prior to the rental will be noted. A similar process will happen upon check-out.
Visitation Appointments
We would be happy to schedule an appointment for you to visit the rental properties to see them first hand. Please contact us via phone or e-mail so we can coordinate a date and time that the houses are not occupied. We purposely do not post the addresses for our properties on the web site in order to discourage drop-in visitors or drive -by viewings. This is to maintain privacy and tranquility for our renters. We appreciate your cooperation.
CLEANING
Willow Pond staff is responsible for washing the bed linens and towels but upon departure the house should be returned in the same condition in which it was rented. A cleaning fee of $150 will be charged if facilities are not left in a satisfactory condition.
