RENTER REQUIREMENTS
For legal and accounting purposes, the person placing the reservation must be the same as the credit/debit card holder. This person is considered to be the guest. All other persons involved with the rental are considered to be the guest's invitees, and all discussions regarding reservation, cancelation, and damage policies will be discussed with the guest, not the guest's invitees. The guest understands that Elevate Vacation Rentals rents to responsible adults over the age of 21 only.

PROPERTY USE
The guest should abide by the property rules and the clause of the rental agreement. The property is for residential use only. The rental is not intended for parties, gatherings, or photo ops at any time. If there is excessive noise or music, any illegal activity, or evidence of a violation of these policies, you may be asked to vacate the premise without any refund and additional charges may be assessed. Please inform us of any change in the number of guests before your arrival to avoid these charges and so the cabin can be prepared appropriately for your group. No exceptions or refunds are given for changes in the number of guests after your arrival.

SECURITY DEPOSIT & DAMAGE TO PROPERTY

The guest is expected to leave the property in the same condition it was upon arrival. In the event that said deposit is insufficient for that purpose, the guest shall pay the additional costs on demand, and hereby authorizes Elevate Vacation Rentals to charge such costs to the card on file.
