Reservation Priority for our Repeat Guests
As a special service to our valued guests, you have the first option to reserve the same property, for the same time next year (many of our guests have made their lake vacations a family tradition year after year in the same property). Give us a call or stop by our office Monday - Friday, 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. within one week of your departure. Reservations can be made 1 year in advance.

Furnishings
All of our properties are privately owned and their decor and furnishings will reflect the owner's personal taste. In all of our properties, you will be provided:

   Bed linens, blankets and pillows.
   Essential kitchen items.
   Hair dryer
   Ironing board and iron
   Start-up supply of coffee, soap and paper products.
   Start-up supply of towels (don't forget to bring your beach towels).

We want your stay to be relaxing and enjoyable, so we make every effort to maintain our vacation rental properties in their best possible condition. We will handle any necessary repairs during your stay as quickly as possible. Our maintenance staff is available after hours for emergencies. We can also help you make arrangements for:

   Special occasion gift baskets.
   Golf Packages with advance tee times.
   Additional housekeeping during your stay.

We will also be happy to provide you with a local's insight on area information and attractions!

Rental Payment
We are confident you will be pleased with the value you will receive with our vacation rentals and our service.
We accept U.S. currency, personal checks, traveler's checks, American
Express, MasterCard, Visa, and Discover credit cards.

When paying advance rent by check, please limit it to one check per reservation.

Guests are responsible for payment of all nights reserved, regardless of your actual arrival and departure date. There are no refunds for early departure.

A Security Deposit Protector®  (SDP)is added to some reservations that covers you and your vacation party for up to $1,500 worth of accidental property damage.

We understand accidents happen. This program provides our guest with
peace of mind and allows us to address necessary replacement/repair issues
in a timely and efficient manner. This is a non-refundable fee. Intentional
damages or those in excess of $1,500 are the responsibility of the renter.

Reservations without the SDP will be charged a minimum $150.00 damage deposit which will be refunded minus any damages after you check out and the unit is inspected.

Lodging tax of 4% is charged all nightly and weekly rentals.

Cleaning fee varies with location. Generally they are as follows
   1 & 2 Bedroom Condominimums $50 - 60
   3 Bedroom Condominiums $90
   Cottages and Homes $90 to $150

Golf packages must pre-pay 15 days prior to arrival.

Most weekly rental rates include your 5th night FREE.

A non-refundable, nominal reservation processing fee is charged for all
reservations. This fee and the advance rent payment are due within 7 days of making the reservation to avoid cancellation.

Daily/Weekly Stays: Advance rent payment is equal to one night's rent per
week or $150, whichever is greater. Balance due on arrival. Take advantage of our Express Check-in Service by prepaying at least 14 days prior to arrival.

Monthly Stays: Prepay the monthly rate, and 1/2 month security deposit which will be refunded upon check out minus any outstanding charges.

Travel Insurance
We are pleased to offer Trip Cancellation and Interruption Insurance provided by Insure America® to protect your vacation investment. We recommend this service to our guests because it helps to cover financial losses that may be incurred if you must cancel or delay your vacation due to covered unforeseen circumstances or illness, or interruption due to mandatory hurricane evacuations. Our Reservation Professionals can provide you with more details. If purchasing travel insurance, your rental balance must be paid in full 30 days prior to arrival or at the time of making reservation if less than 30 days out.

Confirmation
You will receive a confirmation letter after we receive your advance payments. Please contact us immediately if you find a discrepancy, otherwise it will be assumed correct. Please verify:
Arrival/departure dates.
Reserved accommodation.
Rental amount due.

A property will be assigned to you upon confirmation, but is subject to change before check-in if necessary. We will make every effort to contact you before your arrival should this occur.

Occupancy
No property will be rented to persons other than families, married couples, and adults who are 21 years of age or older. The renter must closely and personally supervise all occupants of a property under the age of 21 years. Single persons under 21 years of age will not be permitted to check-in. Any reservation obtained under false pretense may be subject to loss of rent and/or eviction.

   Limited to actual sleeping capacity shown (includes children).
   For your comfort, bunk beds and sofabeds are not recommended for adults.

Parking
Here at the lake, parking is limited. Please make your travel plans accordingly to avoid any inconvenience on your arrival.

Condominiums - 1 to 2 vehicle passes per reservation (determined by the
property association). Boats, trailers, jet skis, and motor homes are not
permitted in the parking lots. We do have boat trailer parking and boat slips available for rent.

Homes - parking space varies. Motor home/travel trailer hook-up is not
allowed as it over occupies the property.

Pets
We love pets too, and some of our units are pet-friendly. Ask about availability of pet-friendly units when you make your reservation. Anyone found with a pet in or on the premises of a unit that is not pet-friendly will be charged an additional $250 cleaning fee, be escorted from the property immediately, and forfeit all money paid.

Cancellations and Changes
We know you won't want to, but if you find it necessary to cancel your reservation or change dates, you must give us advance notice in order to receive a refund of your advance rent less a cancellation fee. The reservation processing fee is separate and is not refundable.

Condominium Reservations - 7 day advance notice for daily and weekly stays, 14 for Holidays.

Lake Homes - 15-day advance notice, 30 days for Holidays.

If less than the minimum notice is given, your required advance payment will be forfeited to the property owner.


Express check-in Service
Take advantage of our Express Check-In Service. Make your full payment at least 14 days prior to your arrival. (Regular check-in times still apply).

Check-in/Check-out
Check-in begins at 3:00 p.m. If you plan to arrive after 5:00 p.m., please call ahead for payment and key pickup instructions.

You will receive two sets of keys upon payment of rent at check-in. If you become locked out of your accommodations after hours, security may charge a $25 re-entry fee.

Due to our high housekeeping standards, some properties may need a little extra cleaning time and check-in may be delayed. We appreciate your patience as we prepare your property.

Check-out is 10:00 a.m. We appreciate your cooperation in adhering to this, as we must have time to prepare the property for our next guests.

Remember, the check-out is not complete until keys have been returned to our office.
