VACATION AND 30 DAY+ POLICIES
Each home in our management program is privately owned. Recommendations are provided to homeowners, ultimately the choice is up to the homeowner to furnish the property. We welcome your feedback and gladly work with the owner on how to create the best experience possible.
Please promptly report any maintenance issues. The $50 Damage Waiver for short term vacation homes covers accidental damage when reported immediately.
All short term and 30 day+ rental properties reserved for 30 days or more have a nonrefundable $250 damage waiver. For information on damage waivers see the Guest FAQ section.
Renters insurance is required for 30 Day+ homes and strongly encouraged for vacation homes.
All furnished properties are non-smoking, including cigars, vaping, and marijuana. If smoking occurs a minimum of $250 will be charged for additional cleaning and odor removal.
When planning a wedding, rehearsal dinner, reunion, or other big events, be sure to make your inquiries well in advance. Depending on the home desired and the size of your group there may be additional permits, site fees, or equipment rentals involved. We’re happy to help you plan your special occasion.
Lost keys or being called after hours to unlock a door is a $50 charge.
If police are summoned to a home by Gorge Rentals or neighbors there is a $250 guest charge.

We want you to have fun and enjoy the Gorge. Our policies are in place for your safety and out of respect for our surroundings. Violation of federal, state, county, or city laws and company policies and house rules will be grounds for immediate eviction without refund.
VACATION HOME CANCELLATION POLICY
Cancellations are sometimes unavoidable, however, guests often make reservations in advance to ensure they have a home. This makes it difficult to re-book a home with short notice.
Cancellations made 60 days or more in advance will be refunded deposit less a 10% cancellation fee per property.
Cancellations made 30 days or less from your expected arrival date will not be refunded if the reservation is 15 days long or more. If the reservation is for 14 days or less the reservation may be canceled minus a 10% cancellation fee per property.
Making your stay shorter is also considered a cancellation for affected nights, and is subject to the same 60 -day cancellation policy.
Online Travel Agencies (OTA) like Airbnb and VRBO have their own cancellation policies.
