Green Gables & Grazelza Gunch Reservation Agreement

Thank you for your reserving our Home!
Please do not hesitate to e-mail or call us, with any questions you may have, before signing this Agreement. Please be certain to read all of the information, policies, procedures and this entire Agreement carefully, as your failure to comply with its terms may result in your reservation being cancelled. We realize that it is long, but it is all very important information for you as well as for us.

We will email you the check-in information, including driving directions (from Tillamook) and lock box code once the total balance due has been paid, your security deposit has been received and we have this entire (signed) Agreement with emergency contact information on file. If you will not be available by email during that time, please notify us (in advance) so that we can arrange to get you this information another way.

We hope that you become a Return Guest in "our" home! We place a high value on our Return Guests. That is why, in addition to the other Specials that we may be running on our web site, our Return Guests always enjoy half-off of their first night's stay with us (when booking a min. 3 night's stay) every time that they return to our home.

GENERAL INFORMATION: Our home is fully furnished and includes linens and towels, cookware, dishes, glassware and silverware. For your convenience, you will find a starter supply of toilet paper, hand soap, dishwashing and laundry detergents. We do not replenish these supplies during your stay.

Please inform us right-away of any cleanliness or maintenance problems by calling us any time at the emergency contact numbers that we will provide. PLEASE LEAVE A DETAILED MESSAGE IF OUR VOICE MAIL ANSWERS.

We will return your call to the house phone, as cell phones often do not work there.

CHECK-IN is 4:00 pm and CHECK-OUT is 11:00 am. You will be charged (by debiting your security deposit) half of one night's rental amount for either:

(1) checking-in prior to 4:00 pm, without making arrangements with us in advance (prior to the day of your arrival); or,

(2) failing to check-out on time without making arrangements with us in advance (by the day before your departure).

We understand unforeseen emergencies, so if you anticipate being unable to check-out on time - it is imperative that you contact us (at one of the emergency numbers you will be provided) to arrange for a late check-out at least 24 hours before the cleaning crew is scheduled to arrive (at 11:15 am the day of your departure).

We rent to adults 21 years of age (and older) exclusively, as no minor may enter into a legally-binding agreement. Violators will be asked to leave without refund. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone (although we never have). Rates are subject to change without notice, although they will not change once you have confirmed your reservation with us.

Number of Guests: The rental amount and cleaning fee that you are paying is based upon a certain number of people (who are five years old or older). Additional persons (up to the maximum) may stay for an additional $10 per person, per night, to cover the additional cleaning and wear and tear on the home.

Guests "sneaking" additional people into the home, without prior arrangement with us, may be asked to leave without refund.

Any guest who allows more than the maximum number of people to stay in the home may be asked to leave without refund. The maximum applies to all hours of the day and night.

Children: Do not leave children under the age of 16 years unattended in the home without at least one responsible adult, over the age of 25, actively supervising them.

Common Courtesy: We hate to have to insist, but past guests have proven the need: please respect the people who live in or near the home by not trespassing on their property, throwing loud parties or playing loud music into the wee hours of the night.

We expect our guests to honor the hours of quiet that are respected in hotels, from 10:00 pm through 8:00 am. Please do not use the hot tub or decks after 10:00 pm for anything but quiet contemplation. Voices carry.

Our neighbors have our contact information. If they need to call us more than once, due to your (or your guests') violation of their right to quiet after 10:00 pm, you may be asked to leave without refund.

Smoking: Is not allowed in the home or on the wooden decks. Please, if you smoke outside, fully-extinguish your cigarettes and dispose of the cooled butts in a trash receptacle - not on the ground, in the planters or by flushing them down the toilets, as they will get plugged. Anyone violating the non-smoking policy, as evidenced by the smell of the

air in the home upon check-out, will forfeit their security deposit.

Our cleaning crew will charge extra for picking up cigarette butts outside of the home.

Pets: Pets: NO Pets allowed unless specifically designated by the home you are renting. There is an additional pet deposit required. Should this policy be violated, you may be asked to leave and your security deposit forfeited.
Here is the pet clause for our rental agreement:
Dog(s) will be allowed during tenants occupancy (with prior approval) if the following
policies are adhered to:
Dog(s) must be on flea preventative.
Dog(s) must be fully housebroken.
Dog(s) must be under owners full control at all times, they must be
on a leash when walking outside the home. Please monitor them at all times.
Dog(s) are not allowed on beds or other furniture. Please bring a
dog bed/pillow if necessary.
Tenant assumes responsibility for any damage that their pet causes
to the home.
Tenant will remove dog waste in the yard caused by their pet.
An additional $150 pet deposit will be due at the time of final payment
(reflected above.)

I will be bringing my pet:

______________________________________________________Breed & Weight

Condition of the Home: You must notify us immediately, upon your arrival, if you are unhappy with the condition of the home or if you are missing any items or supplies that you believe should be there so that we may arrange to solve any problem that you may have. If we are not notified by Noon the day after your arrival of damage or other problems, it may be assumed that such damage was caused during your stay and your security deposit may be charged. This would not apply if the damage that occurs during your stay is something completely out of anyone’s control, such as a burst pipe inside the wall.

Our homes has a "no shoes inside" policy. Please observe this policy by leaving your shoes in the foyer or your security deposit could be charged for our steam cleaning the carpets or painting the scuff marks on the walls.

Cleaning Fee and Check out: The cleaning fee is based upon a routine cleaning checklist (including kitchen and bathroom sanitizing, dusting and washing some laundry). This does not include any of the items that guests are expected to do prior to check-out.

Certain check-out and cleaning procedures must be followed. (See the check-out procedures below) Failure to follow the check-out and cleaning procedures given will result in additional cleaning charges being deducted from the security deposit. The cleaning crew charges $25.00 per hour, per person, to perform check-out tasks not completed by a guest.

Hot Tubs: The Hot Tub is cleaned from debris and santized after each use. Please foIlow the Hot Tub rules posted to maintain cleanliness of it. If there is excessive sand and debris, or cloudy water due to skin lotions and oils after your stay your Security Deposit will be charged an additional $25 hour to restore the Tub. This can take 2-3 hours if the Tub needs to be completey drained, hand wiped down to remove debris, refilled, and then the chemicals brought up to acceptable levels.

CHECK -OUT & CLEANING PROCEDURES

The home must be clean for the next guests! Our cleaning crew often has only a few hours to prepare for check-in and to make certain that everything is completely sanitary. Please follow the cleaning instructions below prior to leaving. They are also in the home’s informational notebook for your reference. Failure to comply with these will result in extra cleaning fees being charged against your security deposit ($10 each extra load of laundry and $25 an hour per extra crew member needed to finish by 4 pm):

1. Strip the linens from the beds and put them, with all used towels, in the washer (or near the washer, if full) and housekeeping will run the washer for you. Please leave the bedspreads and blankets on the beds, as they leave the premises for laundering.

2. Remove all perishables and food containers from the refrigerator/freezer and wipe up any spills inside. Please do not leave food in the oven or microwave! Wipe-up any spills in the kitchen and eating areas, including the stove top, the counters, the floor and the inside of the microwave.

3. Return all items, especially furniture, to their original places (as you found them).

4. Run the dishwasher before you leave, housekeeping will put the clean dishes away. If you leave dirty dishes, etc., behind - you will be charged extra for their washing them.

5. Empty all garbage receptacles into a larger bag, tie it securely, and place it in the larger can for collection. The collection garbage can is secured to the car port with bungees and is collected at 6 am Tuesday mornings.

PLEASE turn the heat down to 55 degrees, draw the shades, turn off all of the lights, make sure all doors and windows are closed and locked, return the guest set of keys to the fridge hook and make sure that the lockbox key is locked back inside of the lockbox (and the box is closed and re-set) before driving away. You may have to work the combination again to get the lockbox to close, but please be sure that it has closed and re-set.

IMPORTANT – READ BEFORE YOU LEAVE:

We provide the service of washing some towels and linens for you. You may leave 2 loads maximum for housekeeping to wash without charge. Extra loads cost $10.00 per load and will be deducted from your security deposit. You may wash your own linens and towels during your stay to avoid the extra expense. Please do not wash colors with whites to save time, the colors may bleed and destroy the whole load. Replacement linens will be deducted from your security deposit. Any linens or towels left on the beds, or in the baths, will be considered used and will be washed at your expense. Unused linens and towels may be left in their places, with an obvious note from you to housekeeping by the phone, to avoid this expense.

If you use the dryer during your stay, please clean the lint screen and please be certain that all laundry is dried thoroughly. DO NOT LEAVE EITHER THE WASHER OR THE DRYER ON WHILE AWAY FROM THE HOME!

Make certain that any coals in BBQ or outdoor fireplace are completely extinguished before leaving the home at any time, for however long! You will be held responsible for the cost of repairing any fire damage due to your (or your

guest’s) failure to comply with this rule.

PLEASE DO NOT DUMP LEFTOVERS OUTSIDE FOR THE CRITTERS. It's unsightly and attracts rodents. Instead, please use the plastic bags provided prior to placing food in the garbage collection can.

Make sure the collection garbage can lid is bungeed tight, there are many hungry raccoons!

PLEASE DISPOSE OF YOUR CIGARETTE BUTTS, fully extinguished and cold to the touch, in the garbage can only!

If staying with your dog(s), scoop their waste into a bag, tie it very securely and dispose of the securely tied bag in the outside garbage can. If the garbage can is full, you must take this bag with you to dispose of. Housekeeping will not handle animal waste. Please do not toss your dogs’ waste into nearby bushes or leave it in neighboring yards, etc., as our non-dog-owning neighbors will complain – and rightfully so! If we need to ask our landscaping service to “scoop” after your stay, your security deposit will be charged for their doing so.

Put your garbage into the plastic bags provided prior to placing it in the can and do not leave extra bags of garbage outside of the can or you might find yourself picking-up raccoon-strewn garbage from all-over the neighborhood!

We are proud of our community and strive to maintain this beautiful area of the Oregon Coast. We would appreciate your help during your stay by taking your recycling to one of the stations in Oceanside, Netarts or Tillamook. We are sad to say that the local garbage service does not provide pick-up for recycling.

Cancellation Policy: The rental payment may be refunded upon cancellation, only if canceled 30 days (or more) prior to your arrival date (you will be charged a $50 handling fee). If canceling less than 30 days prior to your arrival date, no refund will be given unless we are able to find a new guest to stay during the dates that you had booked. In that instance, the $50 handling fee will still be charged. There are absolutely NO REFUNDS given for early departures, unless it is due to an evacuation or other area emergency. Power outages in the area are common during the stormy season and do not constitute an emergency. We are, again, human. If there are extreme circumstances beyond your

control that are causing you to cancel, please let us know and we might be able to work something out.

Security Deposit: If your reservation is for 10 people or more, the security deposit is $300.00. For fewer people, it is $150.00. If you did not pay this deposit by credit card you must provide a separate check for it. The balance of your security deposit will be returned to you within 30 days of your departure date (providing there was no damage, missing property or extra cleaning, laundry or garbage).

Any guest who is asked to leave without refund due to their (or their guests') violation of the Policies will also forfeit their security deposit. There is a $25.00 fee for lost key replacement.

Phone Calls: The local phone number will be given to you with the check-in instructions. Local calls are free. Long distance calls may only be made by use of a calling or credit card. You may always call us from the home using the local numbers provided - you are our guest, after all! Please note that cellular phones often do not have service in our area of the coast and never in the mountain pass on Highway 6 or in Oceanside village. You should contact your cellular service provider prior to your trip to confirm service availability in Tillamook and Netarts.

Parking: IMPORTANT! DO NOT BLOCK ANY WALKWAYS OR STREETS. This is a small community with narrow streets. Very few residents rent their homes to strangers and the people who live there resent (understandably) being unable to access their homes because of strangers' cars that are parked in their way. The maximum number of vehicles allowed at the home you are renting is four, assuming they are mid-sized vehicles.

If you have more vehicles than the maximum, you must find a legal place for the extra vehicle(s) to park and car pool to the home. Guests who park their cars in any way that obstructs other vehicles' passage or other residents' access to their homes, risk towing

of the violating vehicle to a local storage yard if someone complains - where all charges and fees will be charged to the vehicles' owner. RVs and boats are only allowed with prior permission.

Compliance with the Law: All guests (and their guests) are expected comply with all applicable laws, statutes, ordinances and regulations that are in effect during their tenancy at the rental home. Any actions taken by guests (or their guests) in violation of the law, or of any individual's rights, are strictly forbidden and will result in immediate termination of your stay without refund.

Wildlife: It is very tempting to feed and interact with the cute critters that come to the windows begging for food. It is easy to forget that they can be vicious and dangerous. It is best to avoid any contact with them and to keep your children and dogs away from them. Under no circumstances should a wild animal be let in to the house.

Mother Nature: Regarding the beach, rocks can fall from the cliffs above, "sneaker" waves can carry you out to sea (or cause logs to roll over on you) and incoming tides can trap you on the rocks that you are climbing. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for any consequences of using the beach or any of nature's other wonderful

offerings. Please enjoy the beaches and our homes by exercising caution and sound judgment.

AGREEMENT WITH THE OWNERS:
