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 refund—> 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 remoteness—>

St. Esprit is extremely remote with no nearby restaurants, stores, shopping etc
-->The closest....
A) Restaurant & full size grocery store= 30 min away (St. Peter’s)
B) Convenience store = 20 min away (L’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 Airbnb’s.

6) Hot tub Rules:

No glass at hot tub area—>
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

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.
