Other Details to Note
Guest Rental Agreement, Security Deposit, & ID Verification Required: ❗️All guests must complete a Guest Rental Agreement, ID verification, and Security Deposit before receiving Arrival Instructions. Security Deposit Options: ➡️Non-refundable insurance waiver ➡️Option for a refundable security deposit instead—please inquire for details. This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). We understand that security deposits can feel like an added hassle, so we offer the smaller non-refundable insurance waiver as an alternative for shorter stays. This option provides peace of mind for both you and us, covering common accidental damages—such as a spilled drink or a broken dish—without requiring a large upfront payment. Our goal is to ensure a smooth, stress-free experience for all guests while maintaining the beauty and comfort of our home. As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $50 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $3 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots. 🐾Pets are welcome with prior approval before check-in. A pet fee of $75 per pet, per stay applies ❌No Smoking or Vaping: This is strictly a smoke-free property. A $1,000 cleaning fee will be charged for any violations. 🤫Noise Policy: This home is in a peaceful, scenic area. Please respect quiet hours from 10 PM - 8 AM, and be considerate of the surrounding neighborhood. 🚫 No street parking or trailers allowed 🚗 Only one vehicle allowed per group (per county requirements) 💻 No Wi Fi (we're working on this!) 🕐 Check-in after 5 PM · Check-out by 10 AM 💨 No AC Most homes in McCall don’t have air conditioning because it’s rarely needed. Ceiling fans in bedrooms, movable fans throughout the home, and cool mountain nights mean you’ll stay comfortable. We recommend opening windows at night and closing them in the morning. ❄️ Winter Weather Notice McCall transforms into a stunning winter wonderland — but with that beauty comes true mountain conditions. From November through March, snow and ice are common, and weather can change quickly. Please come prepared: -4WD or AWD vehicles are highly recommended during the winter months. -Snow tires or chains may be required during active snowfall or icy conditions. -Our driveway is plowed regularly, but accumulation can still happen between plowings. -Always check the forecast before driving, and allow extra time for safe travel. -Guests are responsible for their own vehicles. -We are not responsible for stuck vehicles, towing costs, or delays caused by weather conditions. That said, if you ever need help or local guidance, we’re just a message away. A little planning goes a long way — and the snowy setting is all part of the magic here in McCall! Please review the house rules and feel free to reach out with any questions before your stay. We look forward to hosting you! 😊
