COMPANY POLICIES

W.A.S. Properties, LLC, and Walden’s Creek, LLC are both doing business as Supercabins.net, hereinafter “Company”. Currently, all cabins are owned by either W.A.S. Properties, LLC or Walden’s Creek, LLC.

The Customer shall mean the individual signing the rental agreement. In the event the Customer is an entity or organization, the individual making the reservation shall also be considered the Customer in addition to the entity or organization.

The words you, guest, and yours shall have the same meaning as the word Customer. The word arrival or arrivals shall have the same meaning as check-in, and the word departure or departures shall have the same meaning as check-out. The words we, us, and our shall mean The Company.

All homes are privately owned and their prices are subject to change. The Company reserves the right to set minimum night stay requirements for certain times and minimum and/or maximum occupancy requirements for the properties.


SECURITY DEPOSIT:

Each property booked, is subject to a $250.00 security deposit. The security deposit is to partially cover damages that may occur during a stay, to cover any items that may be stolen or become missing from the property, or to cover any excessive cleaning that may result. In no way is your liability limited by the security deposit. Assuming you return the property in the same condition that existed prior to your arrival, and nothing is missing or stolen, you will receive the entire security deposit back. The security deposit will be refunded in approximately 14 days after your departure. You agree when making a reservation that you will be personally liable for any and all damages that occur during your stay, including any attorney fees that the Company may incur and you personally guarantee that you will cover such expenses. Upon sending any form of payment, that signifies your acceptance of all the company policies. Do not place diapers, sanitary napkins, or other foreign objects in the plumbing system. In doing so, you agree to be responsible for all damages and costs incurred by the Company.

RESERVATIONS:

All reservations are non-refundable at the time you make payment. In the event you fail to sign your Rental Agreement, and return a copy of your driver’s license along with a copy of the front and back of your credit card within 10 days after the date you made the reservation, the Company reserves the right to cancel your reservation and retain the amount of money you have paid as liquidated damages. However, travel insurance is available see the website for details. However, we will allow you to change the reservation within 60 days of your stay by allowing you to pay a $50 change fee and move the reservation within one year of your stay. Should the rates be higher when you make your change, you agree to pay the increase. Should the rates be lower when you make your change, we will not refund any money. The changes must be made before your original arrival date, and 100% of all monies are due once a change is made. Once a reservation is changed there are no further changes or refunds. When a reservation is made, 50% of the entire balance including all taxes, fees, nightly charges, etc… is due at the time of booking, and the balance is due at least 60 days before the date of the reservation. You must call us to pay for the balance. All checks are deposited in the Company’s bank account which may bear interest (the interest shall remain the property of the Company). Any statement that you place on your check, even though we may deposit or cash it, does not bind us in any way. We are only bound by our policies and terms of the Rental Agreement. Should you make a reservation 60 days or less from the date of your arrival, 100% of all monies are due at the time of booking. Anything you are required to mail us is due at our mailing address which is Post Office Box 494, Gadsden, AL. 35902. The Company will send you a confirmation notice by email confirming your reservation, and charges after you make payment and sign and return the Reservation Agreement, along with a photocopy of your driver’s license and front and back of your credit card. No reservations are binding on the Company until and unless the Company sends a confirmation notice. Sometimes properties are sold, have unforeseen construction and repairs that must be made. In those events, the Company shall have no liability to the Customer except to refund in full for all charges. However, the Company reserves the right in its discretion to make a equal or larger cabin by bedroom available for the same exact dates without additional costs to the Customer, and the Customer agrees that the Company may do this. The Company reserves the right to refuse service to anyone or take a reservation in its sole discretion. The rates listed are subject to change until a confirmation notice is issued, even though a credit card may have been charged or a Rental Agreement has been signed.
