Question 5

What is the pet policy / are pets allowed on 5RK Ranch Lakeside properties?

Accepted Answer

While the owners and purveyors of 5RK Ranch Lakeside LOVE animals and pets of all shapes and sizes, as hosts seeking to provide the best experience possible to all potential Guests – the 5RK Ranch Lakeside regrets that currently we cannot accommodate pets of any kind. If this changes in the future, we will make sure to make note of this change across all our applicable listings within the 5RK Ranch Lakeside estate. ** Service Animal Considerations: Host will consider service animal requests (max of 1 per property). Guest will be requested to provide appropriate documentation and an accompanying picture of the specific Service Animal for consideration prior to booking.

Question 6

Is a security deposit required or do you offer Guests accidental damage protection?

Accepted Answer

Accidents happen, and can also be very expensive. 5RK Ranch Lakeside prefers to not inconvenience Guests with a large security deposit. To provide Guests with a worry-free stay while mitigating risks associated with being a STR host, 5RK Ranch Lakeside has bundled into the price of each Guest stay Accidental Damage Protection (ADP). This option is offered in place of a significantly larger security deposit. The ADP Waiver is a low cost, non-refundable, per-stay fee that helps cover unexpected, accidental mishaps — so you can relax and fully enjoy your time at 5RK Ranch Lakeside with added peace of mind. What the ADP Waiver Covers: Accidental, unintentional damage that may occur during your stay (up to 21 nights) What the ADP Waiver Does Not Cover The waiver does not apply to damage or issues resulting from: Parties or events Pets (unless explicitly approved in writing) Intentional or negligent damage Smoking, vaping, smokeless tobacco, or other related violations Any violation of house rules The owner reserves the right to charge for damages or violations that exceed, or are not covered by, the Accidental Damage Protection.
