This non-refundable fee of $110 goes to the housekeeper to maintain a high standard of cleanliness. This includes disinfecting and scouring the bathrooms and kitchen, door knobs and handles, and all frequently touched items with Clorox solution, washing all bed linens and towels, cleaning out the fridge, wood stove, and BBQ, and mopping, dusting, sweeping, or vacuuming all surfaces. If you find any problems on your
arrival, please let us know immediately.
SECURITY DEPOSIT
The $250 security deposit is collected to cover damage to the premises, excessive cleaning, missing inventory, dog waste pick up, and extra trash removal. The deposit will be returned in its entirety if the home is left as you found it. We do expect some breakage (e.g. wine glasses) and will not charge you unless the breakage is excessive. Please let us know if we need replacements. Refund checks will be mailed to the person and
address on record for the reservation or VRBO will reverse credit card charges.

NO SMOKING
Please do not smoke in the house. If you or other guests do smoke outside, please appropriately dispose of the butts. DO NOT toss them on the ground, into the shrubbery, or onto the street. If you do so, a portion of the security deposit will be used for cleanup.
DOGS
We love and welcome well-behaved dogs into our home. There is no extra charge for them accompanying you to McCloud. Both the front and back yards are fenced. We do ask that you pick up after them. Bags, scooper, and hand sanitizer are supplied. Please seal the bags and deposit waste in the garbage can before leaving. There is a bottle of Resolve and towels above the washer for any inside cleanup. If you are going to be leaving the dogs at the house alone, they must be crated. Please leave barkers, diggers, chewers, and scratchers at home.
SNOW/WINTER
If your stay is during the winter, please be aware the roads are plowed when the snow starts to accumulate (2 to 4 inches) and vehicles may need to be moved to avoid blocking the snow plows. The firehouse across the street has parking areas that can be used although this area is plowed too and is only a temporary solution.
Rainbow House is not responsible for any damage to vehicles. Please be cautious. Highway 89 and Interstate 5 are well maintained but, when winter storm warnings are in effect, these routes may be temporarily closed. Prepare ahead of time. Carry chains and bring adequate supplies.
