CBMF Reservations

For the week of the Cavendish Beach Music Festival (CBMF), we require a 50% non-refundable advance deposit at the time of booking which will be applied to your final payment upon check-in.  As per this policy, there will be no nightly refunds for early departures of less than a minimum stay of 3 nights during the festival week or for last minute cancellations. Should a guest cancel a confirmed reservation, they can not reassign their cottage to another party.

​

Please NOTE:  Only guests/vehicles registered on the property during the festival weekend will be permitted access. During the festival extra visitors/vehicles are not permitted.  All cars and guests not registered will be asked to vacate the premises by the management team.

 

We sincerely pride ourselves on guaranteeing our guests a superior vacation experience.  

This policy is for Inn the Woods Cottages, SeaShell Motel, and The Olde Farmhouse.

This policy is applied to guarantee this experience for all our guests.

A $200 damage deposit may be collected at time of check-in.  You can pay by cash, etransfer or credit card.

Important to note that there will be an additional $200 + HST cleaning/repainting fee applied to the credit card on file should evidence of smoking inside the cottage be found. Evidence includes but is not limited to: Smell of smoke/substance, loose butts, ashes, etc.

 

In the event the interior or exterior of a cottage is damaged (pine walls, material furniture that is costly to remove odor, etc.) guests may be subject to additional replacement and/or repair fees, Re-Inspection fees, and/or legal action.

We have a maximum per unit policy. All units are priced for up to 4 people in the two-bedroom units and up to 6 people for the three-bedroom units. There is a charge of $20 per person per night over the allotted advertised pricing. Maximum allowable occupancy in a 2-bedroom is 6 people.

Should extra people arrive beyond the maximum allowable occupancy, we will be asking you to vacate the premises. We have insurance policies to adhere for maximum cottage loads.
