★☆ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ☆★- Power Outages & Utility Service

Utility service to the property is provided by PG&E. Like all homes in Northern California, occasional planned or unplanned power outages—including Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) events during periods of elevated wildfire risk—may occur and are beyond the host's control.

While we strive to provide a comfortable and reliable stay, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted utility service and are unable to offer refunds, credits, or compensation for outages caused by PG&E or other utility providers.

To help protect personal electronic devices, we recommend using chargers with built-in surge protection or bringing a portable surge protector for sensitive equipment. Although the home's electrical system includes standard residential protection, no electrical system can completely eliminate the risk of voltage fluctuations during utility outages or power restoration.

We appreciate your understanding should a utility interruption occur during your stay.
