Please remember that when we put you on the calendar we start turning other prospective renters away from the time you have reserved.  Ultimately we can not absorb your losses if you cancel regardless of your reason.  When that happens we both lose.  Lastly, let me just say we try to be as fair as possible in our dealings with you but have in the past absorbed many losses so unfortunately we have to have these policies to protect ourselves and we will adhere to them.

1.   Cancellation policy:

2.  SchoodicPointVacations.com owners (hereafter referred to as we, our or I) have a first come first served policy for reservations.  In other words he who pays, completes the verification process and answers any other queries first.

3.  We collect two different types of deposits.  The first being a deposit paid at the time of the reservation which is applied to the rent.  The second deposit collected is a security deposit which varies depending on the number of weeks rented and the number of pets in your party, that is returned if there has been no damages, losses, extra cleaning or other expenses and all things are in order.

4.  Full payment or deposits on the rent are collected when the reservation is made.  (See clause 5 for balance payment timeframes.)

5.  The length of time we will hold a time slot until payment arrives is generally a week but is ultimately at our discretion.

6.  Payment terms for multiple weeks rented.   (Deposits for reservations are due at the time of the reservation)

• If renting two weeks
•   Two months prior to arrival 1/2 of the balance is due.
•     (If you are reserving within this period from 1-2 months then the above amount is also due and I will send a request for payment)
•   One month prior to arrival the remaining (1/2) of the original balance is due and then you will be paid in full.
•     (If you are reserving within 1 month of your arrival date then the rental must be paid in full at the time of reservation)

• If you are renting three weeks
•   Three months prior to arrival 1/3 of the balance is due
•     (If you are reserving within this period from 2-3 months then the above amount is also due and I will send a request for payment)
•   Two months prior to arrival 1/3 of the original balance is due.
•     (If you are reserving within this period from 1-2 months then the above amounts (2/3 of the original balance) are also due and I will send a request for payment)
•   One month prior to arrival the remaining (1/3) of the original balance is due and then you will be paid in full.
•     (If you are reserving within 1 month of your arrival then the rental must be paid in full at the time of reservation)

• Payment dates made simple:
•   If you rent 1 week and you are arriving on say August 3rd then your full balance will be due July 3rd.
•   If you had rented 2 weeks then the first installment of your remaining balance (1/2) will be on June 3rd.  Finally the last installment of the remainder of your balance will be due July 3rd.
•   Likewise if you had rented 3 weeks then first installment of your remaining balance (1/3) will be due May 3rd, the second installment on your balance (1/3 of the original balance) will be due on June 3rd and the last installment of the remainder of your balance will be due on July 3rd.
