Check In/Check Out Times:
Check in time is 4:00 PM, EST. The housekeeping staff needs this time to insure that the unit
will be clean and orderly. Please call our office if you will be checking in after 9:00 PM for information on obtaining the
keys to the unit. Check out time is 10:00 AM. This is necessary if someone is checking in after you. If you stay past the
check out time you will be charged for a full night stay. At the time of making your reservation we will take your check
in information (license number, car make and model) so that you may go directly to your cabin.
Cancellation Policy:
If cancelling a six (6) day or less reservation we must be notified
48 hours in advance of the reservation. If your stay is one (1) week or longer, we must receive a two (2) week notification
prior to the reservation. If these terms are not met you will be responsible for the entire rent. The only exception is if
the unit can be rented out on such short notice. A $25.00 administrative fee plus processing fee is charged on all
cancellations.
Pets
Sorry - absolutely, positively NO PETS of any kind are permitted on or in the premises, so please
make arrangements with a kennel or a pet sitter. If a pet is found on the premises your reservation will be terminated
immediately. As Dr. Phil likes to say "That's a deal-breaker".
Phone/Fax:
You are welcome to place local calls. You will need your credit card to place a long distance
call as the phone has been enabled with a long distance block. Cell phone reception is poor here in the mountains, however,
there are some areas in Highlands where you will be able to place and receive cell phone calls. If you just can't stay
away from the office, you may send and receive faxes in our office between the hours of 10:00 AM through 5:00 PM. The rate
is $1.00 for the first page and .50 for all pages thereafter.

open to the public. Sapphire Mountain Golf Club, Sapphire, NC, 828-743-1174; Sky Valley Golf Club, Sky Valley, GA, 800-437-2416;
