If you experience any problems whatsoever with the vacation property during your stay, please contact us and we will do our best to rectify the matter as soon as it is practically possible. Should a problem remain unresolved, you are required to notify us in writing within 7 days of your return. No action can be taken or liability accepted for any complaints received after this period. We aim to resolve complaints within a two month period from receipt, the details of which will be kept confidential to only the parties involved. Please note that as Texas is a Gulf state, insects such as ants, fleas, mosquitoes, water bugs, and the like are occasionally inevitable — as are grass burrs and stickers — and are not cause for complaint. The vacation property is treated periodically as part of a pest and termite control program, and is cleaned after each rental.

Parking is limited to the driveways of the rental property. Do not park on the street or on other property. If you need additional parking, contact our staff for parking alternatives. Due to the regulations of many of the subdivisions and developments in our area, improperly parked vehicles are subject to towing at the owner’s expense.

We love pets too and they are only allowed in Pet Friendly Units for additional fees per night of $35 per pet. There is a maximum of two (2) pets per rental allowed in each unit. Note: SPECIFICALLY TO VRBO BOOKINGS--VRBO's system allows us to charge but only for one pet at booking, if you bring 2 pets (again max of 2 allowed and any pet friendlies) you will need to pay us for the second pet directly outside of VRBO. Your pets must be treated for fleas and ticks using a reliable flea and tick treatment plan prior to arrival. Pets are not allowed on the furniture or bedding and all pet hair must be cleaned up prior to departure--a $200 or more fee will be charged if there is any report of pet hair on bedding and furniture (this is in addition to the nightly fees). Guest pets must be leashed at all times when outside of the unit. Guests must pick up after pets and tightly tie the remnants in a plastic bag and dispose in the trash toter outside. The violation of any terms of this pet policy subjects the guest to additional fines or termination of the rental period. Guest pet policies and unit availability are subject to change per county and association rules and regulations at any time. Pets must be kenneled if you are leaving them unattended for their safety and that of our rental unit.

Fireworks are strictly prohibited and banned from any and all vacation rental properties. Failing to comply could result in eviction.
