Cancellations

Your reservation may be canceled with a full refund up to 14 days prior to arrival. A 50% refund is available for bookings cancelled up to 7 days prior to arrival. No-shows and cancellations within 48 hours of your check-in date will be billed the entire reservation total. Our property is bordered on all sides by forest, so there is a chance of wildlife wandering onto the property. The creatures include and are not limited to: frogs, mice, raccoons, squirrels, possums, spiders, cicadas, etc... While we make every effort to keep wildlife outside of our lodgings, occasional incursions do occur. No refunds will be issued due to the appearance of wildlife.
