Contact Re-Up Retreat anytime through your booking app (AirBNB, VRBO, or website) for any concerns during your stay. Our after-hours emergency service is for extreme emergencies only (fire, electrical, lightning strike, water leaks and lock-outs). Should you have an after-hours emergency, please text Morgan at 803.804.6144 or Tim at 803.524.2040. You will be able to leave a message and your call will be returned promptly.
We have a firm cancellation policy. This means you have until 30 days before your reservation to cancel for a full refund, and between 30 to 7 days before check in to get 50% back. After 7 days, there is no refund. If booking through AirBNB, please consider using their extended cancellation policy at booking or travel insurance. We do stick to our cancellation policy and will not issue refunds. We understand emergencies happen and have been on the end of having to cancel our own trips due to circumstances outside of our control -but that is what the extended policy (available only when you are booking, not after) and travel insurance (available at booking and after) are for!
We have a ring doorbell on the front door. This is our only security camera and is to protect the cabin as well as your belongings during our stay. We will not use this camera during bookings unless in case of an emergency.
We allow up to two (2) mature, house-trained dogs. Cats and other animals are not permitted. Dogs (and any other animal) are not allowed in the hot tub. We do ask that you crate your dogs if you decide to leave the cabin without them for their comfort and safety. 2 crates are provided and are located in the laundry room area. Guests are responsible for any damage incurred by their dog, as this type of damage is not covered under our Security Deposit Waiver Fee. Additional unauthorized animals will be subject to a $200 unauthorized pet fee.
We like for your pets to feel comfortable, but please be mindful of super shedders, especially if they are bed sleepers. Please bring your own linens if you intend to have them sleep on the bed with you. It just helps our turnover specialists immensely and keeps your puppers happy.
Fireplace is available for use from September through March. We will make every effort to ensure that is operational during the guest’s stay; however, we cannot guarantee fireplace operation. Propane deliveries may take several days and cannot be guaranteed.
We will not be responsible for any items that you leave in the cabin. Lost items will be held for two (2) weeks. After that time, all unclaimed items will be donated to a local charitable organization. If requested, items left behind will be returned via U.S. mail. A $25 handling fee, plus postal charges, will apply to all returns.
Reservations require a refundable $250.00 security deposit to be paid with the final payment. This security deposit will be refunded 5 days from departure, provided there is no damage or excessive cleaning required at the property.
Any damages (apart from normal wear and tear) found will be assessed and the cost of repair(s) will be deducted from the $250.00 security deposit. If the cost of repair(s) exceeds the $250.00 security deposit, the credit card on file will be billed.
