Thank You for Respecting Our Policies

Our Unique and Beautiful Piece of Private Property has been Enjoyed by Many Visitors for Decades.
We are happy to share these natural treasures with those that are happy to observe our policies in exchange.

We have laws and policies imposed upon us by the government and insurance (and common sense) that we have no choice but to pass on to our guests. Our years of experience and small staff also dictate how the hot springs must be run in order to be available to the public. The expectations of our guests are very important to us and though we accept it is impossible to please everyone, we believe our policies are as fair as can be for the vast majority of visitors. We take violations of these policies very seriously.

Click on the tabs above to get more information about the policies that pertain to you.

Feel free to ask questions. Thank you for understanding.

Making a reservation indicates you understand and accept our policies. Please feel free to ask for clarification.

At the time of booking a reservation, a $300 check, damage and cleaning deposit, as well as a NON-REFUNDABLE $100 down payment, per reservation night, is required. Your reservation is guaranteed upon receipt of this deposit (check clears bank) and the successful charging of your CREDIT CARD (not debit, gift or reloadable card) for the down payment. If the deposit check is not received within 2 weeks of making the reservation, we reserve the right to charge your card $312 which includes a non-refundable 4% credit card fee. If the reservation is made too close to arrival for a check to be acceptable then the same credit card fee applies to a deposit charged to a credit card.

Remaining payment due is required in full, less the down payment, prior to access being granted to the lodge. An additional 4% is charged if not paying with cash. Please note, we do not accept checks at the time of check in. Your $300 deposit will be returned to you at the end of your stay after the lodge has been satisfactorily inspected.

As of THREE MONTHS PRIOR to your reservation, if you should cancel, we reserve the right to keep your deposit and charge your card for 50% of your total reservation lodging cost less the $100 per night down payment and $300 deposit.
