Most of our properties can be rented for a two-night minimum stay. Minimum night requirements may vary, but standard is two night minimum for non-holiday, three night minimum for holiday weekends and special events.

 

About our 1 and 2 bedroom rentals: All of our chalets are three bedrooms or more. However, we have found over the years that couples and/or families of 4 wanted to just rent part of the chalet at a lower rate. To accommodate this, we introduced the 1, 2, 3 bedroom program. Some chalets are able to “lock-off” the extra bedrooms, giving the guest full access to the living/dining room, kitchen, 1 bath and deck, yet only paying the 1 or 2 bedroom rate. Refer to the Chalet Details to see which units can be rented this way. Dates restrictions apply.

 

REPAIRS – SERVICE CALLS – PMCC cannot guarantee against mechanical failure of heating, air conditioning, TV’s, Cable, VCR/DVD players, modems or other appliances.  Please report any equipment that is not operating properly. PMCC will make every effort to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. Should a repair person make a call to a cabin and find the equipment in working order and the problem was due to Guest(s) oversight or neglect, the charge for the service will be the Guest(s) responsibility.  All maintenance repairs must be reported to PMCC between 9 AM and 5 PM.  Guest(s) understand and agree that PMCC or its repair people might need access to the cabin for the purpose of making the repair.

 

TERMINATIONS BY OWNER/SUBSTITUTIONS – PMCC strives to comply with all Reservations Requests, however, due to circumstances beyond our control, changes in cabin ownership, rental status, mechanical problems, etc., we cannot absolutely guarantee a specific cabin. PMCC reserves the right to change your cabin without notice or liability should the cabin become unavailable for any reason. Neither the owner nor PMCC shall be liable for events beyond their control which may interfere with you visit. This may include but not limited to Acts of God, acts of Governmental agencies, fire, war, inclement weather and construction noise.  No rebate or refund will be offered in these circumstances.   We will try to offer a comparable cabin at the same rate satisfactory to you. PMCC will attempt to give you as much notice as possible so other arrangements can be made.

 

PMCC reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. All rental cabins are leased without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin or handicap.
