Additional Fees
Energy
Fees are all-inclusive with the exception of power generation. Use of the on-site generator for more than 2 hours a day will be charged at a rate of $10 per hour.
Firewood
The use of firewood use each day is $20. Please be frugal with the firewood as it is collected by a limited team and takes great effort.
Cleaning
All cleaning is the responsibility of the user groups. Any cleaning tasks left unfinished will result in a cleaning fee being added to the final invoice. Visitors are expected to leave the site, building and other facilities in the same condition (or better) than they are found. Groups will be charged $20 dollars per hour for cleaning if facilities are left in an unsatisfactory condition. This includes the outdoor common areas.
Cancellation
If you must cancel a booking for any reason you must contact the site coordinator immediately. Cancellations made less than 2 weeks before the site visit is scheduled will be charged a $50 cancellation fee.
