All guests must read and sign this release before receiving entry onto the property and into the hot tub. It applies to the primary guest, as well as all registered, invited and uninvited guests regardless of the reservation status and or age.
The maintenance of this hot tub is very costly for operation and cleaning. Please keep the tub clean. Do no enter without bathing and removing lotions, oils, soaps or debris. Do not enter the hot tub directly from the lake.
All guests accept all liability and agree to use extreme caution and care during their stay at the property. All that enter the hot tub assume all liabilities and waive all rights from the owner of the property and business, Lake People LLC. Risks include:
Being injured or harmed in any way, including death or drowning.
The owner keeps the hot tub in good working condition and keeps the hot tub chemically balanced. The property uses a weekly survey to maintain the chemicals and cleanliness of our hot tub and to keep it in proper running condition.
When a guest departs, we shock the hot tub to get it ready for the next guest. It is normal to see white particles in the water, which is the bromide sanitizer. The hot tub should not be used for 24 hours after a chemical treatment.
Be clean before entering the hot tub. Shower and clean your feet before each use. When entering the hot tub, wash off all lotions and sun protection, along with any hair products.
Do not add anything to the hot tub, no oils, no soaps, no bubble bath, no other liquids, or any other type of harmful material shall be added to or used in the hot tub.
No glass products whatsoever are allowed in or around the hot tub. Please keep your drinks and bottles away from the hot tub.
If any items such as soaps, bath products, food, alcohol, et cetera, are found in the hot tub. The renter will be charged a cleaning fee of a hundred dollar minimum. If the renter or above-mentioned person or persons damage the hot tub, the booking guests accept full responsibility and will pay for all damages and repairs.
You are using the hot tub at your own risk.
Do not use the hot tub while under the influence of alcohol or impaired by other medications. This increases your risk of drowning and or other accidents. High water temperature in a hot tub or spa will accelerate drowsiness. If a person has consumed alcohol or is taking drugs, there is an increased risk of drowning.
No children in the hot tub. This rule is imperative because children are at a greater risk for drowning. Children cannot regulate the extreme temperatures of a hot tub. Children may not be tall enough to stand in all areas of the hot tub. Hot tubs are dangerous for kids in every way. Supervise your children at all times during your stay.
Pregnant women, persons with heart disease, diabetes, or high blood pressure problems and elderly people should not use a hot tub or spa without doctor's permission.
Hot Tub temperatures cannot by law exceed 104 degrees. Never use a hot tub or spa alone or unsupervised.
Limit time in the hot tub to 15 minutes.
Keep the cover on the hot tub at all times when not in use.
Carefully remove and replace the cover so as not to damage it, do not set anything on the cover. Do not walk or sit on the hot tub cover. If using the cover lifter, do not allow the arms to be over extended as they will break.
Do not use the hot tub if it is especially windy.
Damage to the hot tub cover will result in a $500 replacement charge. The cover should always remain on the hot tub when not in use.
The renter agrees that there will be no horseplay in the hot tub. The guests agree to use the hot tub in a proper manner and to pay for all repair charges for damages caused by the guests.
The renter authorizes owners to charge their credit card for any of the above-mentioned charges.
No checks will be accepted for damages to the hot tub or hot tub cover. We do not charge an extra fee for the hot tub. The renter agrees that if they choose not to use the hot tub, no money will be refunded to them. The renter agrees that within 60 minutes of arrival, the renter will report any problems with the hot tub as this will give us the greatest chance of making repairs so that it can be used during the stay.
