Thank you for renting this property. We are delighted to have you visit and enjoy the greater Boothbay peninsula in mid-coast Maine!! We hope that your stay is comfortable and memorable and that you return to stay with us again and again. Please let us know how we can help to make your stay a pleasant one. Please fill out the period of time for which you are renting the Cape here: _________________________________.

Below are the ‘policies’ under which we rent this property to you.
1. CHECK-IN TIME IS AFTER 4 P.M. EST AND CHECK-OUT IS NOON EST. Please, NO early check-in or late check-out unless we have reached an agreement beforehand. 
2. This is a NON SMOKING house. The other house rental on the property is also NON SMOKING.
3. Pets are not permitted in this house under any conditions. So many people are allergic that it makes it unpleasant for others to rent it after pets have visited.
4. DAMAGE/RESERVATION DEPOSIT- A damage/reservation deposit of $300 is required. This must be received with this signed contract and the 50% rental deposit, in the next seven (7) days, to ensure that your reservation is confirmed.  The deposit automatically converts to a security/damage deposit upon arrival.
The deposit is NOT applied toward rent; however, it is fully refundable within (4) days of departure, provided the following provisions are met.
   a. No damage is done to the house or its contents, beyond normal wear and tear.
   b. All debris, rubbish and discards are placed in the garbage cans, with lids securely
       attached, and soiled dishes are placed in the dishwasher and cleaned.
   c. All keys are left on the kitchen island and the house is left locked.
   d. All charges accrued during the stay are paid prior to departure.
   e. All linens are washed and folded. No linens are lost or damaged.
   f. Please, no early check-in or late check-out, unless we have reached an
      agreement beforehand.
   g. Unloading is allowed on the driveway. Parking is allowed on any other hard surfaces, but not on the lawns or soft surfaces, please.
5. PAYMENT – An advance payment equal to 50% of the rental rate is required with this signed contract. The advance payment will be applied toward the house rent. Please make payments in the form of traveler's checks, bank money orders, cashiers checks or personal checks payable to Bold Colorful Life. The advance payment is not a damage deposit. The BALANCE OF RENT is due fourteen (14) days before your arrival date.
6. CANCELLATIONS: A sixty (60) day notice is required for cancellation. For cancellations that are made more than sixty (60) days prior to the arrival date, a full refund will be made, subject to a 5% Cancellation fee or $200, whichever is greater. Holiday cancellation fees may be higher. Cancellations that are made within 60 days of the arrival date, or changes that result in a shortened stay, forfeit the full advance payment and damage/reservation deposit. Early departure does not warrant any refund of rent or deposit. You may choose to purchase travel insurance separately.  See item number sixteen (16) of this contract.
7. MAXIMUM OCCUPANCY- The maximum number of guests for this house is limited to nine (9) persons. An additional charge of $25.00 per person per night for overnight guests in addition to nine (9) will be assessed.
8. THIS PROPERTY REQUIRES A THREE (3) NIGHT MINIMUM STAY.
Longer minimum stays may be required during holiday periods. If a rental is taken for less than three days, the guest will be charged the three-night rate.
9. INCLUSIVE FEES – Rates include a one-time linen-towel setup. All linens are to be left clean and folded. Amenity fees are included in the rental rate with the exception of the AC, which is offered on a rental basis. Cleaning service after check-out is included in the rental rate. Please note: the vacation rental does NOT include breakfast but the kitchen is fully equipped for you to make your own.
