Important Safety and Use Instructions: 1) WARNINGS: Persons using any medication or anyone with a medical condition including, but not limited to, obesity, heart disease, low or high blood pressure, thyroid disease, multiple sclerosis, diabetes or circulatory system problems should consult a physician before using the hot tub since the hot tub affects heart rate, blood pressure and circulation. Pregnant women and women who may possibly be pregnant, should not use the hot tub. Excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy. The use of alcohol or drugs in or around the tub and/or swimming pool is prohibited. The hot tub may cause lightheadedness and use of these substances may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning. Individuals using medications should consult their physician before using the hot tub since some medications may induce drowsiness, while other medications may affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation. Hyperthermia (heat stroke) is a dangerous condition brought about by excessive heat. The symptoms include: sweating, dizziness, nausea, light-headed, convulsions, increased pulse rate, shallow breathing, possible unconsciousness. If you suspect hyperthermia, get medical help immediately. 2) Before each use of the hot tub, measure the water temperature. Water in the tub should never exceed 104 degrees. Water temperatures between 100 degrees and 104 degrees are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children. If there are any problems with the hot tub and/or swimming pool, including any mechanical, electrical or chemical, please call the Manager immediately and do not enter the hot tub and/or swimming pool. Never use the hot tub and/or swimming pool alone. Do not permit children to use the hot tub and/or swimming pool unless they are closely supervised at all times. While the hot tub and/or pool are being serviced, we ask that you keep children and pets away from the hot tub and/or swimming pool area. Do not stay in the hot tub for extended periods of time. Set reasonable time limits (10 minutes is recommended for adults. 5 minutes maximum for children at a temperature lower than 100). Prolonged use of hot tubs beyond reasonable time limits or more than the recommended number of users in hot tub at one time can cause irritated skin, imbalance of chemicals and/or other injuries. The hot tub must always be left covered when not in use. This helps maintain temperatures and is also for the safety of your family and any children in the area. Read and follow any safety instructions and/or signs posted in the home and on/around the hot tub and/or swimming pool areas. Exercise extreme caution when entering or leaving the hot tub and/or pool. Be sure of secure footing before applying your full weight as water refraction can be misleading. Never use any soaps, oils or fragrance of any type in the hot tub and/or swimming pool. This could cause damage to the equipment and affect the chemical balance of the tub and/or pool, leading to a less enjoyable environment and a possible dangerous situation. Never remove the thermometer or floating chemical dispenser from the hot tub and/or pool. These must remain in constant contact with the water to provide the maximum amount of safety. Always shower before using the hot tub and/or swimming pool. DANGER - Risk of Electric Shock. Do not permit any electrical appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio or television within 15 feet of the hot tub and/or swimming pool.

These are acts of God over which ECVR has no control.

ECVR will attempt to locate the guest in an alternate property until the roads make the original booked property accessible, at which time the guest must relocate to the original booked property. There will be a cleaning fee assessed to the guest for the occupancy of the alternate cabin during the time period the guest cannot reach the original booked property. ECVR will not reimburse for travel expenses related to acts of God. Travel Insurance is available and recommended but not required. ECVR is not at liberty to provide refunds under any circumstances.
