We kindly request that you complete this booking validation no later than one week after making your reservation to ensure the finality of your reservation. They will request a government-issued ID upload to verify your identity and conduct a background check. If you do not complete this screening process before the specified timeframe outlined in the platform's cancellations policy, no refunds will be provided. Please ensure you are aware of the cancellation dates required to qualify for full refunds. if you have verified with Superhog once, you will not need to go through the screening process again for future stays at any of our properties.
About Superhog:
Superhog the chosen trust and safety partner of many short-term rental businesses all around the world and Superhog works with these platforms in order to make the sector safer for all of those who enjoy its benefits. The lack of trust between hosts and guests, created by fraudulent hosts and the very small number of poorly behaved guests (of which I’m sure you are not one), is the biggest issue for the short-term rental sector and a real risk to its long term viability. Superhog's role is to provide confidence to hosts that their guests are in fact who they say they are. Likewise by staying with a host who works with us you can know that they have themselves been through a similar process, and therefore that the listing will be as you expect it to be, and that you can rely on the host to act professionally. We also take our data responsibilities very seriously as outlined in our Privacy and Data Protection Policy - PRIVACY & DATA PROTECTION POLICY - Superhog. We are registered with the ICO under registration ZA518818.

Although all children are more than welcome and we provide some toys for many ages, please remember this is a mountain home with multiple levels. Please be advised many aspects of this home may not be suitable for very young children. There are second story decks, steep terrain, no child safety features, a hot tub, and a hot free standing wood burning stove.
ABSOLUTELY NO SMOKING/VAPING INSIDE OR ON THE DECK PORTIONS. We do not smoke and don't wish for our house to smell as such. We have provided and area where smoking is acceptable at a picnic table near carport. Please dispose of the cigarette butts in a proper green cigarette receptacle and not the ground. Cigarette butts found on the ground will result of forfeiture of security deposit.
Up to 2 DOGS only with nonrefundable paid pet fee of $120. Exceptions over 2 DOGS may be granted on case by case basis with increased fees. Dogs must be fully house trained. We kindly ask you have your dogs groomed before coming to help decrease the amount of hair that is shed in our home. We also ask you to please not leave pet unattended in the household unless crated. A crate is not provided. Recommended to keep on leash when outside - terrain is steep and there are many wild predators.
**No other animals are allowed!**
We have an outdoor fire pit for responsible use. Please be mindful to keep fires under control and small. Please do not set the mountain on fire. That is highly frowned upon, people and animals may get hurt or die, and then we would have to tell the authorities who did it, you would be publicly shamed and have fines to pay or worse, etc etc....so just be responsible when enjoying the fire pit.
For your protection and ours, this property has an outdoor video monitoring system in the driveway of the property and the back facing towards the view. Any tampering with any outdoor camera or its components/signal will result in immediate eviction and forfeit of all dues. NO REFUNDS will be given!
Other rules to note:
** Please keep our gate closed at ALL times including when entering and exiting- this helps keep people that don't belong there from exploring**
*No parties or events.
*Please no food or beverage other than water in the bedrooms. Help us keep the bed sheets/comforters white.
* Do not do laundry if temperatures fall below freezing. The drain freezes and you WILL flood the laundry room. Trust us. We’ve done it- don’t repeat it… You will be responsible for any water damage caused due to this.
*We are on a well and septic - flush only toilet paper and whatever comes out of you!
*We’re in the woods and there WILL be bugs and snakes. We have the house treated for bugs/pests monthly, but they still get into the house on occasion. Sometimes there are ladybug and/or stinkbug swarms. If the ladybugs and stinkbugs are in the house and are bothersome, you may vacuum them up with the hand vacuum located downstairs. DO NOT let them out as they will just find their way back in. We will empty the vacuum between cleanings.
*Always wash your dishes/glasses/silverware and small appliances before returning them to their place in the cabinets or counter tops. Our cleaners can’t take everything out of the cabinets each time and wash everything. Please “treat others the way you want to be treated”.
*Clean the grill after you use it to how you found it. Leave the tools under the grill (next to the propane canister) and re-cover it. Let us know if you change the propane canister so we can provide another.
