Reservation Procedure
We get so many requests, that we have to operate on a first come basis. Occasionally folks ask us to hold some dates but unfortunately this isn't possible. As you can see from our availability page, we sell out quickly. We mention this, because we don't like misunderstandings. Here's the procedure:
1. Check the availability page for dates that work for you. Once you've chosen your dates, email us confirming the dates and our mailing address.
2. Mail your deposit (50%) and drop us an email saying that the deposit is in the mail. At that time we will "hold" your dates.
3. Upon receiving your payment, we will promptly send a receipt and contract.
4. Remaining balance, contract and $1000 security deposit due 30 days prior to arrival. We recognize that your security deposit is your money -- not ours. We look forward to returning it promptly, minus required lodging tax. The deposit is an attempt to guarantee a quality experience for all of our guests.
5. Once the final deposit is received, we will email check-in/escort directions as well as a packing list for your convenience.
Policies
1. Cancellation. We understand that emergencies come up. We will make every effort to rent the cabin and return your deposit if we are successful.
2. Saturday thru Saturday weekly rentals in the summertime. (Monday thru Monday in Spring/Fall) Check out 10:00 AM check in 3:00 PM. A personalized escort is scheduled to lead you to the cabin, disarm the security system and give you a "hands on" tour of the property. We need 5 hours to clean thoroughly. (you'll see why) Fall and Spring dates are somewhat flexible.
3. For the comfort of all guests, there is no smoking permitted in the cabin. (Strictly enforced) Our security system can detect cigarette smoke and it will alert us.
4. Sorry, no pets.
5. Well behaved, supervised children are welcome. Please encourage your children to respect nature by leaving it exactly as they found it. Be cautious around the lake bluff.
6. Firewood and marshmallow sticks are provided, please do not disturb the forests.
7. No large groups (8 individuals maximum) without prior approval. We ask you to respect our neighbors by keeping noise to a moderate level. They will do the same for you.
8. Two cars maximum....extra vehicles can be parked at Skaneateles Suites. Four wheel drive is encouraged in the summer and required in the early Spring and late Fall.
9. Mailed personal checks are welcome. Paypal is available for last minute reservations within two weeks of arrival.
10. Please read our FAQ page more more detailed explanations of the policies at Paul's Cabin.
