When we receive BOTH the signed original copy of your request for rental AND 50% of your advanced rent, we will confirm your rental dates. We welcome personal checks but not credit cards. Your cancelled check will be your receipt.

The remainder of the rent and a security deposit of $300 are due 30 days prior to your first day of occupancy. The security deposit is fully refundable within fourteen (14) days of the termination of occupancy, provided that real and personal property are in the same condition as when occupancy commenced and all terms of this agreement are met. Applicant is liable for all replacements and repairs needed to attain the same condition as when occupancy commenced other than normal cleaning and laundry of linens.

Thank you for your rental deposit. Should you fail to utilize this confirmed reservation, we will retain all funds received, other than security deposit, as liquidated damages unless Mountain Escape is re-rented at the same rate for the same time period. If the latter occurs, we retain only a $100.00 administrative fee. We have a stringent cancellation policy because we only have one unit to rent. We hope that you understand our business position.
