Booking Confirmations & Cancellations

If booking more than ten (10)weeks in advance, we accept a 50% deposit to hold a reservation, at which time a date will be arranged for the payment of the balance.

For bookings made less than ten (10)weeks in advance, full payment, by either check or credit card is due before arrival. Your reservation is NOT confirmed until your full payment is processed.

If you find you need to cancel your reservation with us at any time for any reason, it may not be possible for us to re-rent the home or unit. Your full payment, less a $75 booking fee will only be refunded upon re-booking of same dates, same length of stay, and same or greater rental rate. While we make every effort to rebook your dates, please let us know as soon as possible in the event of a cancellation so we can open the dates for someone else.

Security Deposit

A fully refundable security deposit is payable by MasterCard, Visa, or personal check. The security deposit amount will be discussed during the booking process as it reflects the size of your group and the unit(s) rented. It will be refunded within fourteen (14) days of your departure, if no damages are sustained and there are no other outstanding payments regarding any of Sleeping Sea's policies.

Occupancy Limitations

The number of guests that will occupy your rental must be stated at the time of booking as each rental has specific occupancy limits. Additional guests not included in your stay are required to check-in with Sleeping Sea management and additional fees apply. Privacy, property lines, and "quiet hours", observed between 9 pm and 7 am daily, must be respected at all times. Increased vehicle traffic, occupants, excessive noise, or illegal activity may result in fines and/or eviction.

Property Use & Responsibility

You accept liability for any damages caused to the home, including but not limited to; landscaping, misuse of appliances, and/or furnished equipment. If it is necessary to make extensive repairs or replacement, you will be charged for all labor and materials.

Cleaning & Garbage Fees

You are required to remove all refuse and recyclables during your stay. Failure to do so will result in a deduction from your security deposit. Alternatively, trash removal service may be arranged for an additional fee prior to your departure. Absolutely no food down the drain as it is harmful to the septic system. Please save ALL food waste for our compost and farm animals. Be sure to recycle during your stay. In San Juan County all recycling is commingled to reduce sorting time. These tips should minimize your trash significantly.

Our homes and units are thoroughly cleaned between guests. A cleaning fee applies to all rentals. This fee will be included in your rental quote. Additional housekeeping can be arranged. You are required to leave your unit in the same general condition in which you received it. In the event of excessively dirty conditions and disorganization, additional fees will apply.

Check-in/Check-out

Check-in time is 4:00 PM and Check-out time is 11:00 AM
We appreciate your cooperation in observing these times. This guarantees that there is sufficient time to prepare the accommodations for incoming guests. Early check-in will NOT be accommodated during the summer season (June-Sept).

No Smoking

Sleeping Sea is strictly a NON-SMOKING facility inside and out at all times. Smoking is prohibited anywhere on any Sleeping Sea property. We wish to keep the indoors and outdoors fresh and clean for all, as well as avoid litter and fire danger in the summer months. Those who choose to smoke on any Sleeping Sea premise results in forfeiture of your security deposit.

Pets

Pets by prior arrangement only. Unannounced pets will NOT be accepted, as all rooms are not designed to allow pets. We have the right to make changes to a room to better accommodate your pet(s). A reasonable non-refundable pet fee is required in addition to your room rate.

Amenities

All rooms, suites, and homes are furnished with hand & face towels, bed linens, hand soap, dish soap, cleaning products, kitchen cloth towels, and sponges. Limited toilet paper is provided. Large body towels can be provided at an additional cost. Please bring your own paper household products, extra garbage bags, beach towels, personal body care products, and any special kitchen accessories.

Vehicles

For guests staying at Once In A Blue Moon Farm, please park your car in the guest parking lot and the parking designated for the suites. Loading and unloading is available next to all the units. NO vehicles are allowed on the farm to reduce congestion and to be sure they do not inhibit our tractors and other machinery, unless alternative arrangements are made upon check-in.

Gates

Our locations are completely gated and fenced to keep eager deer out of our gardens, and to keep our animals safe inside their pastures. We ask if you open a gate, please close it gently behind you.

Not all gates are for opening. Please respect all signage, especially on the farm. No guests are allowed in animal pastures without accompaniment by Sleeping Sea staff.
