Bluebird Cottage Inn — Reservation & Stay Policies

Cancellation Policy

Cancellations must be made at least 10 days before the first date of the reservation (30 days on holidays and special events) in order to avoid a cancellation fee equivalent of one night's stay. Cancellations made in time will be refunded minus a $10 processing fee (This fee applies to each cancelled unit). No refunds will be given for early departures, unless by management consent.

Check-In & Check-Out

  • Check-In: Starts at 2:00 PM. Our office is open until 6:00 PM Sunday through Thursday, and until 8:00 PM Friday and Saturday. If high occupancy delays room readiness slightly, we appreciate your patience as we finish preparing your cottage.

  • Late Check-In: If you plan to arrive after office hours, please make arrangements with management in advance for late check-in instructions.

  • Check-Out: 11:00 AM. Late check-outs may be requested in advance subject to availability ($10/hour with prior management approval).

  • Minimum Stays: We require a two-night minimum on weekends (and longer during holidays). Occasionally, one-night stays are accepted with an additional room-cleaning fee.

Pet Policy (Dogs Welcome!)

  • We allow dogs (up to 3 maximum per room) for a fee of $10.00 per night, per pet.

  • Pets are not to be left unattended in the room at any time.

  • If excessive barking causes complaints from other guests, we reserve the right to ask you to leave without a refund. Please pick up after your pet and dispose of droppings in a tied plastic bag.

Smoke-Free Rooms

  • All rooms are strictly 100% smoke-free (including tobacco, cannabis, and vaping).

  • Smoking is only permitted outdoors away from other guests, doors, and open windows. You may smoke on outdoor decks or patios only if it does not disturb neighboring guests.

  • Any evidence or odor of smoking or drugs inside a room will result in a $250.00 cleaning charge, plus any costs required to repair smoke damage.

Stay Policy & Housekeeping

  • Daily maid service is not provided during stays, but can be scheduled for a $20 fee with advance notice. Fresh towels and complimentary amenities can be exchanged or picked up at the office at any time.

  • We strictly enforce the maximum occupancy listed for each room. We do not have rollaway beds, cots, cribs, or alternative sleeping arrangements beyond what is already listed in the room.

  • Guests will be held responsible for any damages caused to the rooms during their visit.

Wireless Internet (Wi-Fi)

  • Wi-Fi is provided as a complimentary convenience for our guests. Because our inn is located in a rustic mountain environment, local weather and regional service provider issues can occasionally cause speeds to fluctuate or service to be temporarily unavailable. Wi-Fi service is not guaranteed, and service interruptions or speed variations do not qualify for discounts or refunds.
