AGE RESTRICTIONS

Rentals are to family groups and responsible adults 25 years+ only. NO TEENAGERS. NO PARTIES. NO LARGE GROUPS. We reserve the right to immediately terminate or reject rental, without refund, if in our opinion the tenant has violated these policies or determines, in Agent’s sole discretion, that tenant(s) are detrimental to the property.

 

SMOKING/VAPING REGULATIONS

Smoking & Vaping is strictly forbidden at any of the cottages. This includes inside the cottage and outside anywhere on the property or dock. Smoking/Vaping is only permitted off-property at the road, and all butts must be properly extinguished and disposed of. NO littering.

 

PET POLICY

For those cottages which are pet-friendly: Maximum 2 small-medium dogs (breeds under 50 lbs), or 1 large dog (under 75 lbs). NO CATS. Dogs are not allowed to wander onto another property. If you cannot keep your pet under control, it must be tied. Dogs that bark too much should be kept indoors. At check-out, renters must sweep up excessive dirt/pet hair on floors, vacuum any furniture covered with hair, and pick up all dog poop/garbage outside. If the cottage requires excessive cleaning, a $100 cleaning fee will be deducted from the security deposit.

 

GUEST POLICY

Guests are welcome to visit, just as long as you never exceed the maximum number of people allowed at the cottage. Any extra people will be asked to leave immediately.

 

BOAT REGULATIONS

If you bring your own watercraft (canoe, kayak, paddle board, blow up raft, etc), brand new or used, you are required to have it washed before launching it, and must obtain a permit from the city (cost $10). If you are caught without a permit, you can be fined $500/day for any infraction. For more details, visit: Municipalite de Wentworth-Nord

 

HOW TO RESERVE

Renters are required to complete a rental agreement and provide 50% of the total rental fee (*100% payment is required when arrival is less than 30 days away). Dates are held for 24 hours. Final payment is due 1 week prior to arrival.

 

SECURITY DEPOSITS

We require a $500 security deposit 1 week prior to arrival. No one receives entry to a cottage without it. Deposits are returned once the accommodation has been inspected (generally within 48 hours). In case of any damages or data overages, we will notify you by email & simply deduct the amount from your deposit.

 

CHECK-IN & CHECK-OUT

Renters can arrive at the cottage any time after 4pm, and must depart the cottage at 11am sharp. Off season, an earlier check-in and late check-out may be possible.

 

CLEANING FEE

We do not charge a cleaning fee. HOWEVER, if the following 2 things are not done and the cottage requires excessive cleaning, a $200 cleaning fee will be deducted from your deposit:

  1. For your convenience, we provide all bedding & some utility towels. Anything used should be washed, dried & folded. *Otherwise, please bring your own.
  2. Renters must follow the check-out procedures posted at the cottage (ie. sweep up excessive dirt/sand on floors, wash & put away dirty dishes, take/throw away all food, and clean up any garbage outside).

 

FORMS OF PAYMENT

Payments may be made easily online via Interac or PayPal. Renters who wish to pay by credit card via PayPal will incur a 3% processing fee. Alternately, Interac costs only $1.50/transaction).

Renters have until 14 days (Sep – May) or 60 days (Jun – Aug) prior to their check-in date to cancel for a full refund minus a $100 administration fee. Any time after that, you lose your entire deposit (If we are able to re-book the dates, you will be fully refunded, minus the admin fee).

Renters have until 90 days prior to their check-in date to cancel for a full refund minus a $100 administration fee.
Should you wish to cut your rental short, the fee will switch from the long-term rate to short-term pricing (ie: If you only stay 1 month, the regular monthly rate will apply). *Unless we can find someone to take over the balance of your rental term.
