Lake View; Daily Private Access to Outdoor Hot Tub; Fast WiFi; BBQ

**PLEASE READ HOUSE RULES BELOW IN THIS DESCRIPTION BEFORE BOOKING. Also if there's no availability, message us and we'll try to find a different cottage for you at the same location via Vrbo!

>Resort Activities: relaxing by either of the two romantic lakeside fire pits, hiking, kayaking to ocean beach, free outdoor hot tub time slot, sauna (30$/hr)

>Cottage Features: cleaned with highest cleanliness standards, stunning lake view, designer log furniture, balcony, BBQ, Wi-Fi, Keurig Machine & more

HOUSE RULES (must read, understand & agree to these rules if you wish to book this listing):

1) We have a zero-tolerance policy for illegal drugs

2) Bringing pets = 500$ violation fee & guest(s) will be asked to leave premises immediately without refundā€”> There are people with severe pet allergies so we ask for compassion & for you to respect this.

3) All forms of Smoking (tobacco, cannabis, e-cigarettes/vaping etc) is strictly prohibited inside any cottage/building (500$ violation fee for contaminating a cottage/building with third-hand smoke). Smoking is allowed everywhere else (outside only).

4) Disclosure on location remotenessā€”>

St. Esprit is extremely remote with no nearby restaurants, stores, shopping etc
-->The closest....
A) Restaurant & full size grocery store= 30 min away (St. Peterā€™s)
B) Convenience store = 20 min away (Lā€™Ardoise)
C) Full size shopping mall or theatre= over 1 hr away (Sydney)
Please keep this in mind before booking as location remoteness is not something we can change/improve on, so getting reviews that mention our location remoteness in a negative way is unfair to us. This is why we disclose this beforehand to make sure everyone is fully aware of it before booking.

5) Disclosure on cottage falcon 5pm check-in & 2 pm check-out time & why we can't offer you an earlier checkin in-->

Please don't ask for an earlier check in time b/c it's not possible. We must stagger our check-in times so that we are able to clean all our cottages thoroughly. This cottage is typically for people who are only able to arrive later due to work reasons etc & therefore they get a late check out at 2pm which is later than your typical hotel/Airbnb meaning you have more time the next day to further enjoy your stay! Total stay duration is 21 hours, which is also more than many other Airbnbā€™s.

6) Hot tub Rules:

No glass at hot tub areaā€”>
NEVER bring anything with glass to the hot tub area for any reason (ex: food & beverage containers), except if you believe there is a medical exemption to this rule you MUST contact us & let us know about this. If for some reason you break this rule & glass breaks (not good....especially if it lands
inside the hot tub), you must immediately exit the hot tub & then turn off the jets for the safety of yourself & others. Then you have to report this to us immediately so this issue can be taken care of as quickly as possible. This is not a joke & must be taken seriously.

All guests must sign a hot tub waiver/questionnaire (can be found in the cottage) before using the hot tub.

Do not open or close the hot tub cover unless stated otherwise.
No food or snacks in/around the hot tub-->

Food/snacks can be kept on the kitchen patio deck & can be consumed outside
of the hot tub on the deck. Beverages & smoking are allowed but nothing
is to be spilled into the hot tub (use the ash tray provided at hot tub
area). Disclaimer: Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of
the hot tub to avoid unconsciousness, possible drowning & the risk of
fatal hyperthermia. Exceptions of course include drugs that have been
medically indicated for you to take by your physician, who has assured
that they are safe for you to use before or during hot tub use.

g) Please leave the hot tub area clean & dispose of your trash in the sauna
house trash can.

h) Pregnancy disqualifies one from hot tub use due to safety
reasons.

i) Children under the age of 5 aren't permitted to use the hot tub. All
children 5 years or older should have parents/guardians consult with the
child's physician on whether hot tub use is safe for them & for how long
they are allowed to remain in the hot tub. All children that decide to use
the hot tub must be accompanied by their parent/guardian at all times.

j) Disclaimer: Anyone who decides to use the hot tub should consult with
their physician to ensure that they are safe to use a hot tub. Exit the hot
tub as soon as you feel hot, dizzy, nauseous, or light-headed. Check
with your physician if it is safe for you to use the hot tub for extended periods of time & how often (as well as how long) you should take
breaks to sufficiently cool off. If you wish to have more private hot tub
time slots after thoroughly considering & implementing the statements
in the aforementioned sentence, the pricing is 30$/extra hr

7) Full disclosure on last points of Cellular Service before arriving & Resort WiFi

a) Cellular Serviceā€”>Thereā€™s no cell phone reception on the resort, however, if your phone allows it & you are with a suitable carrier, you can turn on "Wi-Fi Calling" in your cellular network settings. For certain carriers, this allows you to make & receive phone calls and send/receive text messages. The last service point along the Fleur-de-lis Trail if travelling eastbound is next to the nova scotia transportation and public works building on top of the big hill in Grand River. If travelling westbound, ~12km before the entrance to our driveway, there will be full LTE reception.

b) Resort WiFiā€”>may experience interruptions during certain weather conditions.

8) Don't sneak in additional people (including brief visitors) without adding them to the reservation-->
Regardless of how minimal someones visit/stay is, they have to be added as a guest to the reservation.
10) Throughly check for your personal belongings (plugged-in devices/cables/chargers/clothing/ jewelry, wallet, passport etc) when leaving the hot tub & when checking out of our cottage during departure--> We aren't responsible for returning ANY items lost/forgotten to guests. If we find anything, they will be kept in a lost & found box for 30 days. During this time, you can come & arrange to pick it up & after this time, it will be thrown in the trash.

11) To protect guest privacy, taking off or landing a drone on our property isn't permitted

12) Disclosure on:
a) Cottage & Hot Tub location + walking distance to lakeside beach.
The hot tub is situated in a private forest clearing, ~1 min away (walking) from Cottage Falcon. ALL guests on our resort are entitled to pick a free 1 hr time slot per booked night for this hot tub. Walking time from Cottage Falcon to Lakeside beach is ~25 sec.

b) How private is the hot tub??--> Full privacy. For additional privacy reassurance, you can block off the hot tub trail using the rope attached to a wooden post along the trail & lowering the "Do Not Enter" sign on this same post for your convenience. Only the guests who have booked the hot tub for that specific time slot are allowed to enter the hot tub area during that specific time so all guests are aware of the rules anyway & no guest will ever have to share the hot tub with other guests. We have simply provided the rope barrier & sign for extra reassurance with regards to privacy.

c) Cottage Size?ā€”> 380 square feet. Please consider this given the number of guests that you want to bring.

d) Anything else I should note?ā€”> see listing pictures. There is no oven but there is a small toaster oven, microwave & stovetop. There is a mini fridge (not a full size fridge)

13) All services & items for which a fee must be charged must be paid before using the product or service (ex: extra hot tub time, firewood, washed/dried clothes, sauna etc.)

14) Please don't vandalize our property. Landscaped rocks (such as the fire-pits) or any other rocks are not to be thrown into the lake or smashed. Please leave the fire-pits in a normal respectful condition & do not use our provided bath robes for the fireplace (these bathrobes are intended to be used inside the cottage & for the hot tub/sauna). Do not chop down trees or break off branches.

15) Propane is free for guests but remember to turn off the dial on the BBQ itself & the dial on propane bottle after you are done using it or itā€™ll drain the entire bottle of its propane!

16) Bundle firewood $15

17) If you need any laundry done we would be more than happy to do that for you (washing - $10 , drying - $10)

18) Sauna (capacity= 2 people)--> 30$/hr (to cover electricity & maintenance)

19) Full refund if requested during power outages->
In the uncommon event of a power outage (due to uncontrollable factors such as, but not limited to, weather) during your stay & you find that you want a refund, we will give you a refund if you ask for one no questions asked b/c we cannot provide backup generators for all cottages.
