CHECK OUT time is 11:00 am.   Please vacate property no later than 11 a.m. so that we can have it ready for the next guests. If you stay past 11 a.m.,  you will be charged an additional night's rental. NO EXCEPTIONS.

 
Pets: No pets are allowed unless it is a pet friendly location and you have pre arranged with reservations to bring your pet.  You are responsible for all damages caused by your pet.  Please do not try to hide pets anywhere on the property including decks, vehicles, screened areas or indoors.  If you bring a pet to a "no pet" property,  your group will be asked to vacate the property immediately with no refund. 

Smoking Policy:- No smoking is allowed inside any of our properties.  Please use the outside porches and decks for smoking.  Please use an appropriate receptacle for cigarette butts.  Do not throw them on the decks, porches, lawns or grounds.  An additional fee will be charged for picking up cigarette butts.

Outdoor Areas: Outdoor areas must be cleaned and returned to proper order prior to departure.  This is not included in your cleaning fee.

Fish cleaning areas are provided for your convenience and enjoyment.  Please dispose of fish heads, guts, etc. in a proper manner.  They may be placed in heavy trash bags, tied and placed in the garbage bins or you can bury them across the beach levee (deep enough so that no one will step on the fin or bone of a fish).  Do not throw this material on the levee, streets or any other open area.  This is a violation of municipal law and could result in a fine.  You are responsible for cleaning all fish cleaning areas after each use.  Remove all seafood and fish scales and rinse all fish cleaning counters, concrete, etc. with fresh water.

BBQ - Because of fire hazard, please use barbeque pits in open areas only.  No barbecuing is allowed on decks.  After charcoal has cooled, please remove charcoal from pit and discard in garbage bag.  Please clean grill after use.

If outdoor areas are not cleaned, an appropriate amount will be deducted from the security deposit.

No swimming pools or hot tubs are allowed on decks:  The decks are not designed to support the weight of water in a swimming pool.  This can create an extremely dangerous situation resulting in damage to property and possible injury.

Neighboring Properties: Please be considerate of neighbors and respect their property.  Do not park on their property or block their driveways.  Do not use the neighbor's dock for your boat.  Do not use items from outside their houses (tables, chairs, crab traps, fishing gear, etc.).  Do not empty charcoal or dump grease or boil water on their lawns.  Please use designated crossovers to get to the beach and do not cut through private property.  There is usually a right of way at the end of each street to access the beach.  Some of these rights of way are maintained by the neighboring homeowners and appear to be part of their property.  However, they are public property.  There are also numerous cross walks with steps to the beach that are maintained by the town.  These are especially helpful for those who may have trouble crossing the levee. 

Occupancy:  The person booking the rental must be staying at the camp for the duration of the rental.  A maximum occupancy is listed for each property.  This is the maximum number of people that may sleep in the house overnight.  Older children and teens are counted in this number.  Infants and toddlers do not have to be included in this number.  You are allowed to have a reasonable number of guests visiting the property during the day, however, we do not allow large groups of extra guests and large "yard party" situations.  If the police are dispatched to the house due to large groups of people or because of loud and disruptive behavior, we reserve the right to deny occupancy to all members of your group with no refund.
