A cleaning service to clean the house on your departure is included on your invoice. You are responsible that all debris, rubbish and discards are placed in garbage bags and transferred to the large trashcans by the road on predetermined days of the week. At the conclusion of your stay, all items are expected to be returned to their proper place.

The home is provided with a starter set of home supplies as outlined below.

• 3 rolls of bathroom toilet paper per bathroom
• 3 paper towel rolls
• 1 sponge
• 1 small dishwashing soap
• Dishwashing detergent for the week

Owners do not guarantee that these extra items will always be available and guests may need to replenish their own paper goods, toiletries, & laundry detergent, etc.

We, the Renters (also referred to as “Tenants” and “Guests”) agree to the following:

1) PAYMENT DUE - All rental monies are due according to the payment schedule disclosed under "Payment Policy" above on reservation acceptance.

2) CANCELATION 30 days before check-in, Renters will forfeit the total rental. The total rental includes all charges on the paid-in-full invoice. Renter may mitigate this loss by purchasing Travel Insurance or Cancel for Any Reason insurance offered by from a third party provider. CANCELATION 31 DAYS or MORE before check-in, Renters will receive a REFUND of 50% of the rental. CANCELATION 61 DAYS or MORE will receive a full refund. There are NO REFUNDS for EARLY DEPARTURE.

3) HURRICANES & TROPICAL STORMS - There are NO REFUNDS for hurricanes, tropical storms or weather conditions, even if a mandatory evacuation is ordered (optional travel insurance is offered for Renters protection or Renter may obtain through a third party. Renter ASSUMES THE RISK).

4) CONDITION OF PROPERTY: Owners have, to the best of their ability, given an accurate description of the property and its condition. Guest understands that it is considered as reserved "sight unseen". Our cleaning staff will have cleaned it before your occupancy. Keep in mind that this is new construction and all systems and appliances should be in peak working order. With that said, the failures of operation of certain extra amenities, such as TVs, cable, games, or the Internet and Wi-Fi service are not a basis for any refund in excess of $500. The amount of any refund shall be determined by the parties in a fair and equitable manor.

Owner will make every effort to have these items repaired but does not guarantee that they will be repaired during Guests occupancy. When you arrive, if you find that the house has not been cleaned to normal standards please notify the Owner immediately. We will do our best to have tradesmen attend to the problems but may not be able to fix everything over holidays and weekends. The Guest agrees to hold the Owner harmless from any liability for the condition of the house.

5) CLEANING & REPAIRS: Please note that cleaning does not include dishes & cooking utensils. If additional cleaning is required after you leave, it will be charged to your credit card. Guest agrees to keep house, furniture and furnishings in good order. Removing, adding or changing furniture without Owner’s written approval shall be deemed a material breach of this Rental Agreement, and is strictly prohibited. Guest is responsible for cost of replacement of any damage to furniture or premises and replacement of missing items. Under no circumstances can any furnishing or linen be taken outside onto the beach with the exception of those items specifically mentioned in paragraph 8.

6) ENTRY OF PREMISES: Owner or Owner’s representative may enter the premises ONLY by securing prior permission from Guest. For inventory and maintenance purposes a property management employee of the Owner may need to enter the premises. The same permission procedure applies as above.

7) ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE INSURANCE - Renters will be completely responsible for any and all damage to the home or property caused by Renters, whether accidental or due to Renters negligence. However, Renters understand that the rental includes an accidental damage rental policy providing up to $3,000 in accidental damage protection provided Renters notify the owner and assist the owner in making a claim. Renters understand that Renters are responsible for damage beyond the coverage provided by the accidental damage insurance. Renters are also responsible for damage that would have been covered by the accidental damage insurance if Renters fail to advise the Owner of the damage and provide the necessary information that would allow the Owner to file a claim against the policy.

8) USE OF EXTRAS - Renters will furnish their own beach towels and beach shades (EZUPs, umbrellas, etc.). Owners will provide 8 beach chairs, 8 beach passes and 7 bicycles (3 women’s, 2 men’s and 2 juniors). If there are issues with any of the inventory, it is the responsibility of the renter to alert the owner of such at the start of the stay. All inventoried items will be checked at the conclusion of your stay and are expected to be returned in the same condition they were found. Replacements for some of the inventoried items found to be damaged or missing will be billed at the following rates:

• Beach chairs - $50/chair
• Beach passes - $50/pass
• Bicycles - $200/bicycle

The owner makes available a limited supply of extra linens (1 queen, 1 full, 1 twin) in the hall closet, to handle unusual circumstances or needs. If Renters use any of these items they will wash, dry and return them to their prior location or Renters will be assessed a cleaning fee of $50.00. All beds will be left as found.

9) ASSUMPTION OF RISK: No lifeguard may be on duty. Accordingly, persons using the beach or hot tub do so at their own risk and the owner assume no responsibility for accident or injury. No one should swim alone. Renters will hold the Owners harmless from any and all bodily injury and/or property damage incurred on the property arising out of Renters' negligent acts or omissions. See disclaimer below.

10) CHILD PROOFING: Guest understands that no special efforts have been made to “childproof” this house, and accept the risk or harm to any children we allow on the property. These risks are not limited to, but include access to the ocean, hot tub, adjacent street, cleaning supplies in the house and plants in the house, patio and on the street, that might be poisonous if ingested.

11) FURNITURE: All furniture must be returned to its original location on Guest's departure or an additional charge will be made.

12) MISSING ITEMS - Renters will be charged for any missing items reasonably attributable to Renters and not returned after notification.

24) CHECK-OUT PROCEDURES - Renters are responsible to complete the check-out procedures in the provided guest package that includes a check out list and to insure that the keys are placed back in lock boxes and the home is left.

25) HOLDING OVER: Because of the nature of Owner's business (short term winter and summer recreational rentals) Guest understands, and is hereby put on notice that any unauthorized "holding over" of the property past the stated rental period could severely jeopardize Owners business and cause loss of rental income from other previously booked guests, temporary and/or permanent loss of business, goodwill and reputation and, among other things, could force Owner to breach an agreement with similar short term summer and winter recreational Guest(s) who may have reservations during Guest's unauthorized "holding over" period.

In that event, Owner may be legally liable in damages to said other guests. Guests should be aware that unauthorized "holding over" has been construed as a factor in establishing "malicious continuing occupation" of rental property, which may entitle Owner to treble damages in any unlawful detained action. Guest also recognizes the unauthorized "holding over" could be grounds in court as a cause of action for intentionally interfering with Owner’s prospective business advantage.

26) RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES: It is specifically agreed and understood that the relationship between the parties herein shall be deemed to be of proprietor and lodger or Guest as opposed to a relationship of landlord/tenant.

27) REMEDIES: In the event of a default to the Rental Agreement, particularly, but not limited to Guests unauthorized "holding over" or those acts mentioned above in this agreement, and in addition to all other rights and remedies Owner may have at law, Owner shall have the option, upon written notice or as the Law may hereinafter provide, Owner may immediately re-enter and remove all persons and property from premises. In such an instance, the Rental Agreement will be terminated, and Owner shall be entitled to otherwise recover all damages allowable under the Law. The Guest, as part of the considerations of this special rental, in recognition that this property is booked in advance by other Guests throughout the year, hereby waives all claims for damages that might be caused by Owner; re-entry and taking possession of premises or removing or storing property as herein provided, and will hold Owner harmless from loss, costs and damages occasioned thereof, and no such re-entry shall be considered or construed to be a forcible entry as defined in the New Jersey Code of Civil Procedure or other similar statutory provisions.

Further, if for any reason Owner is unable to deliver possession of the premises to Guest at the commencement of the term specified in the Rental Agreement, Owner shall refund amounts paid by Guest, but shall not be liable for any other damages caused thereby.

28) ATTORNEYS FEE/DEFAULT: If any legal action or proceeding (including default, non-payments, etc.) arising out of or related to this Rental Agreement is brought by either party to this Rental Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to receive from the other party, in addition to all other relief that may be granted, the reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses incurred in the action or proceeding by the prevailing party.

29) INDEMNIFICATION: Guest agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Owner for any liability arising before termination of this Rental Agreement for personal injuries or property damage caused by the negligent, willful or intentional conduct of Guest(s). This indemnification agreement does not waive Owner's duty of care to prevent personal injury or property damage when that duty is imposed by law.

30) PRIOR AGREEMENTS: No prior agreement or understanding not contained in writing herein shall be effective. Furthermore, Owner, other than what is specifically written and set forth herein, makes no other or further representation regarding the nature, character and quality of the premises to be rented, and no representation shall be deemed to exist or be material unless and until it is reduced to a writing and signed by the parties. This Rental Agreement may be modified in writing only, and must be signed by the parties in interest at the time of the modification. It constitutes the entire agreement of the parties. If any provision in this contract held by any court to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall never the less continue in full force.

The sole and exclusive venue (i.e. place where lawsuit may be filed) for any legal proceedings shall be in Ocean County, New Jersey. Guest expressly waives any other right or privilege with respect to the Disclaimer:
