To ensure a safe, seamless, and high-quality experience, we kindly require all guests to complete the following quick steps after confirming their reservation:

1. Sign our short-term rental agreement
This is a standard document that outlines the terms of your stay, our house rules, and general policies. It protects both parties and helps us maintain the quality of our homes and guest experiences. The rental agreement will be sent automatically after your reservation is confirmed and can be signed digitally in just a few clicks.

2. Complete ID verification

3. Choose your damage protection option
You’ll have two options to finalize your booking:
– Pay a $50 CAD non-refundable damage waiver, which provides up to $700 CAD in coverage for accidental damage during your stay.
OR
– Choose a refundable $700 CAD security deposit, which is a pre-authorized hold on your credit card taken 2 days before check-in and released automatically 5 days after check-out, provided there is no damage or violation of house rules.
Please note: A 2% processing fee is retained by our payment processor, so the refunded amount will be $686 CAD. However, if you cancel your reservation before the deposit is processed, you will not be charged this fee.

Review Title: Clean Property, But Poor Communication and Extra ChargesThe property was clean and in a good location, but the booking process was frustrating and the communication felt impersonal. When I asked to add one guest, the host delayed responding and then charged 15 per day for two days, even though the listing stated extra charges only apply after two guests (our reservation was for three).I inquired several times about early check-in as we were driving five hours and had an event shortly after arrival. Each time, I received delayed, generic chatbot-style responses, often filled with dashes as though the template had not been completed. Clear answers never came. Only two hours before check-in did I finally receive a fee schedule for early access (60 at 10am, 40 at noon, 20 at 2pm), along with instructions to pay by e-transfer to an address that also appeared incomplete. This made it extremely difficult to plan and gave the impression of added charges being introduced at the last minute.The damage deposit process was also unclear, with only two options: a 700 preauthorization plus 15 fee, or a 50 deposit. There was no flexibility, even though we were two responsible couples.Overall, while the property itself was satisfactory, the reliance on automated, incomplete responses, the lack of timely communication, and the introduction of surprise charges made this my most frustrating VRBO experience to date. Unclear up until arrival, I would have chosen elsewhere
