What is the Cancellation Policy for the Farmhouse?

Cancellation & Reservation Modification Policy

We understand that travel plans can change. Because Jug Handle Creek Nature Center operates as a non-profit nature education center with limited accommodations, changes to existing reservations impact our operations and affect our ability to provide affordable lodging. Please review our policy for cancellations, shortening stays, or reducing rooms below:

1. Full Cancellations

• Single Rooms, Cabins, & Cottages: You will receive a refund only if you cancel with at least 14 days' notice prior to your scheduled check-in date.

• The Farmhouse: You will receive a refund only if you cancel with at least 30 days' notice prior to your scheduled check-in date.

• Camping: All camping spots booked directly through us are fully refundable with 24 hours' notice. (Note: Reservations made via Hipcamp must be altered or canceled directly through the Hipcamp platform).

• Processing Fee: All approved refunds are subject to a 10% processing fee on the total transaction amount. Within the 14-day (or 30-day for large facilities) window, payments are strictly non-refundable. 

2. Shortening a Stay (Reducing Nights)

• Outside the Policy Window: If you request to shorten your stay before your cancellation deadline (14 days for rooms/cabins; 30 days for Farmhouse/Bunkhouse), your reservation will be adjusted. The nights removed will be refunded, subject to the standard 10% processing fee on the dropped nights.

• Inside the Policy Window: If you request to shorten your stay within the 14-day or 30-day window, or after you have checked in, no refunds or credits will be issued for the dropped nights. You will remain financially responsible for the entire length of the original booking. 

3. Dropping Rooms (Partial Cancellations)

• Multi-Room Group Bookings: If you have booked multiple individual rooms, cabins, or campsites and wish to drop some but not all of them, the standard notice windows apply to each specific room being removed.

• Notice Provided: Dropping a room prior to the 14-day or 30-day deadline will result in a refund for that specific room’s cost, minus the 10% processing fee.

• Late Requests: Dropping a room within the 14-day or 30-day window will forfeit the entire payment for that specific room.

Facility Buyouts: If you rented the entire Jug Handle Property under a flat group rate, dropping individual rooms does not change the total reservation price.
