RENT BRANSON VACATION RENTAL AGREEMENT

We look forward to having you stay and enjoy one of our amazing vacation rentals! We have prepared
a wonderful place for you, your family, and friends. Please enjoy our home and keep in mind your safety and others.

Please read this Vacation Rental Agreement carefully before you begin your vacation. Any monies received by Rent Branson (herein referred to as BR) for occupancy of Vacation Property indicated the acceptance of the terms of our Vacation Rental Agreement in full. All policies are strictly enforced. It is the responsibility of all guests and members of their party to be familiar with all policies pertaining to rental. Upon making your reservation online you have already accepted this agreement. We also require this agreement to be accepted again with this form.

This agreement is made between you referred to as Guest throughout this agreement and Rent Branson/Alpha Omega Management LLC, called Agent.

RENTER REQUIREMENTS: For legal and accounting purposes, the person placing the reservation must be the same as the credit/debit card holder. This person is the Guest. All other persons involved with the rental are the Guest’s invitees, and all discussion regarding reservation, cancelation, and damage policies will be discussed with the Guest, not the Guest’s invitees. The Guest understands that Streamline Getaways rents to responsible adults over the age of 25 ONLY.

RATES:

Rates are quoted on a per night, per week or per month basis as noted. Most rates quoted are for a specified number of people (4 for 2 bedrooms, 6 for 3 bedrooms). Additional guests are subject to a per person, per day charge. Charges vary and are subject to change without notice.

ADDITIONAL CHARGES (NOT included in rate):

Rates do NOT include daily maid service (unless noted), gratuities, out-of-country (except Canada) long- distance phone charges, car rental, food, liquor, laundry, personal items, excessive cleaning upon departure (i.e., upholstery or rug shampooing, etc.). For Longer Term Rentals we can make available weekly housekeeping. Please reach out to us for the rate. For some properties in this long term stay a mid-stay cleaning will be required. We will let you know if your property applies.

RESERVATIONS AND PAYMENTS:

Payment of the applicable 30% Rental Deposit amount together with a completed Guest Reservation Application must be received and approved by Amazing Branson Rentals before a confirmation will be
issued. You may be required to complete a guest verification form. This is to protect you as well as the owner from any possible fraud. Final payment, consisting of the remaining balance, must be received by the agent 30 days prior your arrival and for some properties of 120 days. Failure to make final payments on a timely basis will leave the Guest’s reservation subject to automatic cancellation without refund of any monies previously received. The credit card must have an expiration date that exceeds the departure date. If the card on file has already been charged, the Agent will not refund and process a different form of payment. If the Guest has more than one card on file, the Agent’s system will charge the default payment unless called ahead of time to change

it. If the Guest’s card has expired and there is another form of payment on file, the Agent’s system will automatically default to that form of payment. The Agent will not refund and charge another form of payment. An electronic check payment can be arranged if the Guest is not arriving in under thirty (30) days. A $35 service charge will be incurred for any returned e-checks. Additionally, a $500-750 security deposit may be required.

CLEANING FEE:

A non-refundable cleaning fee is required with all reservations. This fee is for the Agent’s housekeepers who dust, vacuum, sanitize, clean linens and towels, maintain the hot tub and remove refuse from the property. The Guest is required to follow all checkout procedures detailed in this agreement and leave the property in the same general and good habitable condition it was in when the Guest arrived. If the property is left in an unsatisfactory condition, including but not limited to, trash not removed, dirty dishes, furniture moved, etc., there will be an additional cleaning fee charged to the Guest’s card on file at a rate of $65 per hour, with a one-hour minimum. This also applies to the property exterior, grounds, grills, hot tubs, and pool (if so equipped). Housekeeping is not provided during the stay unless previously arranged. Glitter and confetti are not allowed on any property, inside or outside.

CONDITION OF RENTAL:

The property shall be in the same condition upon departure as at check-in. Normal wear and tear excepted. Failure to comply with pre-departure cleaning requirements resulting in excessive cleaning will be charged to your credit card at $65/hour, with a one-hour minimum

RESERVATION CHANGES:

The Agent has the right to reject all requests pertaining to the changing of bookings. This includes moves or change dates. If a change is granted, an additional administrative fee of $100 to $250 will be charged. If there is an increased cost associated with the updated booking, then those costs will also be charged. Acceptance of any change is subject to approval by the Agent.

OCCUPANCY:

Each property has a maximum number of guests that are allowed, which is strictly enforced. If the Guest exceeds this occupancy limit for any reason, Guest is considered in violation of this agreement and will be charged a minimum fine of $100 per person per night. Please inform the Agent of any change in the number of guests before arrival to avoid these charges and ensure the property is appropriately prepared for the stay. No exceptions or refunds are given for changes in the number of guests after arrival. In addition, occupancy limits for day usage for visitors are limited to two (2) times the premises occupancy limit. A guest/reservation holder who signs this lease must be at least 25 years of age and be present during the entire term of the lease. Any Guest found to be in breach of this contract will be subject to expedited eviction procedures.

CHANGES TO THE NUMBER OF GUESTS:

The Guest agrees that the number of people stated on the reservation shall not be exceeded at the rented property. Unauthorized people at the property at any time will result in a double charge for each additional guest or a maximum occupancy charge (whichever is more), loss of any security deposit, and responsibility for all damage, disturbance, and cleaning charges.

CONDUCT OF GUESTS:

The rental property is not intended for parties, nor gatherings at any time. Exceptions are made on an individual basis – please contact the Agent for prior approval. Guests who host an unauthorized party will be held accountable for a minimum $10,000 fine and prosecution for damages. If there is excessive noise or music, any illegal activity, or evidence of a violation of these policies, the Guest may be asked to vacate the premises without any refund and additional charges will be assessed.

PETS:

Not all rental properties allow pets. The Agent does not accept any animals other than dogs. Dogs may be permitted in certain rentals with prior approval, but additional fees & restrictions apply. Many of the properties are not pet friendly. In these properties, no pets are allowed. An unannounced pet will be required to leave immediately. If the guest refuses, the entire party will be asked to leave without any refund. Some properties have external cameras used to notify the owner if a pet has entered.

Unauthorized occupancy of pets will result in immediate eviction and loss of all rents and deposits. If the discovery of unauthorized pets is made after the Guest’s departure, a penalty of $75 per day plus any additional cleaning charges will be assessed. The minimum charge for such instances is $300. Damage done by pets is not covered by any insurance offered for the home. The Agent is not responsible for any actions caused by the Guest’s pet or pets.

1. 1)  An additional deposit may be required.
2. 2)  A per night usage fee for each pet and an additional cleaning fee.

CANCELLATION AND REFUNDS:

Cancellation of reservations at any time after the first twenty-four (24) hours of booking may result in forfeiture of monies paid. Cancellation after the final balance has been paid will result in forfeiture of the entire rental amount. Refund of monies paid for rental and services will be made under the following circumstances: (1) If, on the day that the rental is scheduled to begin, the property is unfit for habitation and no equivalent substitute can be obtained, or the property is not reachable by the usual means of transportation, or access to the property by visitors has been prohibited by authorities; or (2) The property is rebooked for the same time period and at the same rate of initial booking. If a portion of the rental time is re-booked, a pro-rata refund will be made. All refunds, whether in whole or pro-rata, will be subject to a deduction equal to 15% of deposit(s) paid with a minimum of $100-500 (property dependent). In addition, all credit card and processing fees will be retained by the Agent. To protect against cancellations caused by certain unforeseen events, such as illness, death, natural disasters, etc., the Agent strongly recommend the Guest purchase travel insurance and the VIP Protection Plan to assure refund of deposits paid and reimbursement of other vacation payments. Such insurance is available through travel agents, auto clubs such as AAA, or the Agent. Cancellations due to a cancellation or change of a tee time, conference, or other events are subject to this same policy.

VACATION RENTAL INSURANCE:

Travel Protection Insurance is available through the Agent and covers cancellation or interruption of the Guest’s stay, travel delay, baggage delay, rental car damage, and emergency/medical/dental expenses. Please read your documentation carefully as certain limitations, restrictions, and exclusions apply. The plan is optional, but we strongly recommend it. In case of unforeseen events, this insurance helps protect the Guest’s vacation

investment. If the Guest chooses not to purchase this coverage, or the Rent Branson VIP Cancellation Protection Plan provided by the Agent, no refunds will be given after the final balance has been paid. The insurance premium, 7.45% of the total, is non-refundable and non-transferable.

RENT BRANSON VIP CANCELLATION PROTECTION PLAN:

SECURITY DEPOSIT:

An additional refundable security deposit may be required at the Agent’s discretion for the Guest’s reservation. It is the obligation of the Guest to surrender the rental property in good, clean condition at the time specified. If a security deposit is taken it will be returned within thirty (30 days) of the departure date, provided there is no breakage or damage to the premises and/or contents, there are no outstanding long-distance phone or pay-per- view charges, no additional cleaning costs, and all other rules of this agreement are adhered to. If your property allows for a pet, a refundable pet deposit may be required. Please note pet cleaning and daily pet fees are in addition to this and are not refundable.

DAMAGE PROTECTION PLAN:

The Agent’s Damage Protection Plan covers unintentional damages to the rental unit interior that occur during the Guest stay, provided they are disclosed to the Agent prior to checkout. The policy will pay a maximum benefit of $1500. Any damages that exceed $1500 will be charged to the credit card on file.

EMERGENCY and/or MAINTENANCE:

In the event of a problem getting in the rental or if there are problems with the condition or functionality of the rental, please immediately contact the Agent at 417-779-5880. If it is not an emergency, please call during normal business hours between 8 AM and 8 PM.

DAMAGE and/or ACCIDENTS:

The Guest agrees to notify the Agent as to any damage or accidents that occur to the premises, to both real property and personal property during the rental period. Damages must be reported prior to checkout for the Agent to repair and/or replace said damages. Otherwise, all damage costs will be the responsibility of the Guest.

CONSIDERATION:

If the Guest’s reservation for the rental property is not available, the Agent reserves the right to relocate the

Guest to a different rental property within the Agent’s rental program or that of another company. Every effort

The Guest agrees to pay $25 plus shipping and handling for any item that needs to be shipped back. The Agent may use any shipping method they deem necessary to return lost items.

There is a minimum charge of $100 for left behind weapons. Weapons are reported to the local authorities and must be retrieved in person. The fee will be charged to the card on file.

Television, Internet, and Telephones

All properties are privately owned and have different subscription packages for cable and/or satellite and internet. Not all properties offer internet and cable. The Agent does not guarantee any programs, events, or reception. The Guest is liable for ordering any Pay Per View. If the Guest does not use their own credit card for ordering, programming charges plus an additional $50 processing fee will be charged to the credit card the Agent has on file. Some properties are equipped with a telephone; short calls within the U.S. are permitted.

Fireplaces, Firepits and Wood Stoves

Some properties have a fireplace, firepit, and/or wood stove. The Guest should confirm this information with the Agent before booking. During winter months, some properties may provide a starter amount of firewood for in-home heating (approximately November to February or if temperatures permit).

Do not put anything except wood or wood products in the fireplace. Do not put any flammable material on or near any heat source, such as the electric baseboard or wood stove. Do not leave the home with a fire in the firepit, fireplace or wood stove. Do not place hot embers in the ash buckets inside or outside of the property. Do not put ash or hot embers anywhere outside the home (apart from cooled ash in provided buckets). Some properties have access to a communal firepit. The Agent does not provide starter amounts of wood for firepits. If the Guest would like to purchase firewood for an additional cost, please contact the Agent. Orders placed by noon may be delivered the same day.

Winter Conditions

The Agent will attempt to have the driveway and walkways clear of snow before the Guest’s arrival. Please be cautious when there are icy conditions. During the winter months, the Guest may be required to carry chains or have traction tires. Four-wheel drive is recommended.

Safety and Security Risks

Always lock doors and windows when not at home. The Guest assumes responsibility for the home and its contents, as well as all personal property. Instead of using a key, the Agent uses a keypad to lock and unlock the door. The Guest will be given a code in the Arrival Instructions email to use to access the home. This code is changed for every guest for security. For most properties, the Agent also has a key in a lock box in the event it is needed. The Guest is responsible for lost key replacement costs. Children are welcome, but there are conditions in and around the home that may be hazardous to them, as well as to adults, such as the open stairways, wildlife, icy surfaces, fireplaces, etc. The Agent does not assume any responsibility for injuries resulting from the Guest’s failure to use due caution. Children must always be supervised. Candles are not allowed due to fire hazards except citronella candles in buckets outside or supplied emergency candles in case of a power outage.

Insurance Disclaimer

The Guest understands that the Agent’s insurance does not cover personal belongings, or any damage caused by the Guest. The Guest agrees that the Agent is not responsible for any loss or damage during the term of the rental agreement. The Guest agrees to carry insurance covering all the Agent’s personal property located in the unit or bear full responsibility for its damage including damage from fire, water, theft, or any cause.

Right of Entry

The Guest agrees that the Agent reserves the right to enter the rental property any time to investigate disturbances, check occupancy, check for unreported pets, check for damage, to make such repairs, alterations, or improvements as the Agent may deem appropriate, or to show the property to prospective purchasers or guests (in which case prior notification will be given).

Plumbing

Do not put any feminine products in the toilet. The toilets are water-saving models and don’t have a strong flush – limiting the amount of toilet paper used will help prevent a clog. Plungers are provided if a clog occurs. Please do not pour grease down the drain.

RULES & REGULATIONS

Noise

The Guest shall be entitled to the quiet enjoyment of the premises and must reciprocally respect the rights of the neighbors to the quiet enjoyment of their respective properties. No bothersome noise is permitted after 10 PM.

Alcohol and Drugs

No illegal drugs, minor consumption of alcohol, or fireworks are permitted on the grounds of any of the Agent’s rentals.

Fireworks

No fireworks are permitted on the grounds of any of the Agent’s rentals.

Smoking

Smoking of any kind is not permitted in any of the Agent’s rental properties. If there is any tobacco, other smoke odor, or smoking remnants within the rental after the Guest’s departure, there will be an air quality fine of up to $1500 but no less than $250. This will be charged to the method of payment on file. If deemed necessary, the Agent will bring in an outside source for smoke removal and may charge the Guest’s method of payment for additional costs that are incurred to remove the smell of smoke or smoke damage. Oil lamps, candles, and incense are not permitted due to the long-lasting odor, fire risk, and liability. Smoking is only allowed outside if the remnants are properly disposed of. Do not throw cigarette butts on the ground (including the fire ring) or bring them into the rental. If this policy is violated, there will be an additional charge for excessive cleaning.

Service Animals

Many of the Agent’s properties have never had animals. ADA-certified service animals are accepted by law;. Lying about service animals is a felony and will be treated as such. A service animal is one who has been trained to do a specific task and is tasked to be with their owner twenty-four (24) hours per day, not left at the unit. No animal can be left in the unit without being crated. If found in violation, the Guest will be asked to vacate the premises immediately. Please notify the Agent directly of any special conditions. The Guest must also inform the Agent in writing that a service animal will be staying in the rental upon booking. Non-pet- friendly homes are generally for owners and/or guests that have allergies or reactions to animals.

Swimming Pool Use and Rules (for properties that have them)

Use of the swimming pool is strictly at the Guest’s own risk and liability. The pools are regularly sanitized, and chemicals are replenished in all indoor pools prior to every arrival. If additional maintenance is required during the Guest’s stay, or the next guests are unable to use the indoor pool due to conditions resulting from the Guest’s failure to observe the rules laid out in this agreement, there will be a minimum $45 charge (and cost of

supplies if necessary) for each hour of required maintenance. If the Agent must drain the tub or indoor pool it

will be 1)

2)

3) 4)

a $200-500 charge.
All children and teenagers, regardless of swimming ability, are to be constantly supervised by an adult that can swim and is able to jump into the pool to assist a child in danger of drowning.
Keep a phone nearby to call 911 in the event of any swimming pool accident. All adults must know the house address.
Swimming alone is not permitted, regardless of swimming ability or age.
Don’t leave any toys in the pool when the pool is not in use. Toys are an invitation for children to explore an unattended pool.
No running or jumping around the pool area is permitted.
No horseplay is permitted.
Be familiar with pool rescue protocols.
Be familiar with emergency CPR.
No glass items are allowed in or near the pool.

5)
6)
7)
8)
9)
10) Alcoholic beverage consumption is not permitted in the pool area. Persons under the influence of

alcohol must not enter the pool.
11) Notify the Agent of any potentially dangerous pool or backyard conditions that may be present.
12) For sanitary purposes, the Agent respectfully requests that all children that are not fully potty-trained

wear swim diapers.

Hot Tub (for properties that have them)

The hot tub pump will kick on periodically to circulate, filter, and heat the water. It will activate automatically. The Guest does not need to do anything. This continues to occur while the hot tub cover is on. The water level will be filled to the proper amount upon the Guest’s arrival. Please take care not to splash too much water out or add more water. Altering the amount of water in the hot tub can disturb the chemical balance. Allowing the jets to be exposed to air will cause the tub to airlock, resulting in the need for a service call, and an additional charge. Please carefully remove the hot tub cover when ready to enjoy it and remember to replace the cover after each use. The cover must remain on the hot tub when not in use to maintain its temperature. Absolutely no suds, oils, or food is allowed in the hot tub. Feet should be rinsed before entering the hot tub to ensure sand and dirt are removed. This is very important as all these things affect the filtering system. Draining and cleaning out the tub and filter system is very time-consuming and costly. After refilling the tub, it can take twenty-four (24) to thirty-six (36) hours to reheat. If the hot tub must be drained and cleaned after the stay, the Agent will charge the Guest an additional fee to be determined at the time of service.

Hot Tub Use and Rules

Use of the hot tub is strictly at the Guest’s own risk and liability. The hot tubs are regularly sanitized, and chemicals are replenished in all hot tubs prior to every arrival. If additional maintenance is required during the Guest’s stay, or the next guests are unable to use the tub or due to conditions resulting from the Guest’s failure to observe the rules laid out in this agreement, there will be a minimum $45 charge (and cost of supplies if necessary) for each hour of required maintenance. If the Agent must drain the tub or indoor pool, it will be a minimum $200-500 charge. Instructions for the tub controls are posted in the information book in the rental property.

1) Always shower or bathe before and after using the hot tub. Body oil, tanning oil, self-tanning products, makeup, hair products, etc. clog filters.
2) An adult must always accompany children.
3) Observe the safety precautions posted at the tub and have all guests do likewise.

4) Do not sit, stand, or lie on the tub cover; a minimum charge of $300 will be made if the cover is broken. 5) Unhook the safety strap before removing the cover.
6) Replace the cover when not in the tub and secure the safety strap to conserve heat, for safety, and to keep debris out of the water.

7) If the temperature has been adjusted during use, make sure to return the temp to the original setting when done. Failure to reset may cause the hot tub to overheat & stop working, possibly resulting in additional charges.
8) Use non-breakable drink containers in the tub area.

9) Do not add anything to the hot tub water such as bubbles & oils, even if the product says it is compatible. 10) If the water level is low (below the filter intake) add more water or call the Agent, as low water can destroy the pump, resulting in additional charges.

Hot tubs may be drained and refilled before the Guest’s arrival because of previous Guest misuse. If this occurs the hot tub may not be warm until later the evening of arrival or the following morning. Additionally, due to the high mineral content in the mountain water at some of the Agent’s rentals, the hot tub may initially appear cloudy until the minerals settle. If the conditions persist, please call the Agent.

Swimming Pool and Spa Disclaimer

If the property has a swimming pool (community or private), I (the Guest) fully understand the potential dangers that swimming pools present to infants, children, teenagers, and adults, and I (the Guest) fully understand and agree to abide by all swimming pool and hot tub rules listed above. I (the Guest) agree to hold the property owners, the Agent, and the Agent’s employees completely harmless against all liability, loss, damage, or expense, including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, and cost of litigation, resulting from any and all swimming pool accidents or incidents occurring at the property. I (the Guest) agree to keep the door of the gate that opens to the pool area always closed. I (the Guest) also agree an adult must be present to supervise any children or teenagers in the swimming pool area. I (the Guest) agree to never leave a child or teenager unattended on the property. Swimming Pools can be extremely dangerous for unsupervised children and teenagers, as well as adults swimming alone. Swimming pool accidents can happen to anyone, regardless of swimming ability, therefore the Agent requires that the rules laid out in this document be strictly adhered to.

Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances shall the Agent be responsible for any loss, expense, damages, claims, or injury direct, indirect, consequential, or otherwise whatsoever, howsoever caused or incurred whether arising in contract or otherwise in law or equity as a result of the rendering of the services or accommodations as described or substituted and including, without restricting the generality of the foregoing as a result of any delay(s), substitution(s), rescheduling(s) or change(s) in the provision of services or land accommodations by the Agent or by reason of military actions, revolution or acts of God, government agencies, or unforeseen circumstances or events, by any agents, owners, employees, subcontractors, servants or services as substituted; the Agent, at all times will act in good faith and use its best efforts to substitute with accommodations or services of a type as comparable as possible to those contracted. The Agent will not be liable under any circumstances, including substitutions, to refund any unused portion of booked accommodation or services. The Guest may also encounter the following risks: slippery floors and stairs, especially when wet, swimming pools, hot tubs, BBQ grills (charcoal, electric, gas, etc.), clean/clear sliding glass doors, outdoor decks of various elevations, and narrow pathways. Therefore, the Guest agrees that he/she is voluntarily participating in any and all activities, risks, and use of the accommodations, and hereby assumes all risk of injury, illness, damage, or loss to person and property that might result, including, without limitation, any loss or theft of personal property. By booking this property, the Guest acknowledges that in all events and circumstances, the Agent, its officers, and employees shall not be liable. The Agent reserves the right to cancel or rescind any rental agreement if it is found that the Guest is conducting unlawful activities, disturbing others by playing loud music, percussion, audio, or instruments, causing any loud or offensive noises, has made any misrepresentations about the nature of the visit, size of the group, use of the property, or breach this rental agreement in any way.

Indemnification and Hold Harmless

While the Agent and its property owners strive to maintain vacation properties in the finest condition, no guarantees are expressed nor implied regarding suitability or for any purpose. All Guest(s) and their invitees use the vacation property structures and premises at their own risk. The Agent and its property owners shall not be

held liable or otherwise responsible in any way for injury to any Guest and/or their invitees that is caused or permitted to be caused by the intentional or unintentional acts of said Guest(s) and/or invitees, or by the failure of structures, appliances (including hot tubs, pools, and grills), furnishings, and/or other equipment, whether by malfunction, misuse, acts of God/nature, and/or are otherwise naturally occurring. No guarantees are expressed nor implied as to the suitability of utilities and other services provided to the vacation properties and adjacent structures and premises. No guarantees are expressed nor implied regarding the suitability and/or compatibility of materials utilized in the construction of the vacation property and/or its contents. The Agent and its property owners shall not be held liable nor otherwise responsible in any way for allergic reactions to Guest(s) or invitees, caused or permitted to be caused by materials utilized in the manufacture of the vacation property and/or its contents, nor from mold and/or airborne spores, nor from pet and/or animal allergens, nor from chemical agents including, but not limited to appliances, linens, carpeting, utensils, fixtures, hot tubs, pools, and/or other equipment. By written or electronic endorsement of this Agreement, Guest(s) and invitees hereby agree to forever hold-harmless and indemnify the Agent and its property owners from and against all claims, demands, loss, liability/responsibility of any kind and character, including the cost of defense, arising out of or in any way connected with the Guest(s) use of the property.
