The high season includes all national and provincial holidays. We request $500 fully refundable damage/loss/excessive cleaning fee paid directly to the owner. CanadaStays/VRBO collects an additional commission fee + our cleaning fee. The other similar cottages nearby go for more than 1.5-3,000 more/week.
