Enchanted Hideaway Policies:

• smoking is allowed on deck, porch, and patio, not inside -- please use ashtrays provided.
• pets are welcome with no extra charges or fees
  • please note that the Hideaways are not fenced and are in a rural area. The owners and others in the neighborhood have dogs that have free run of the neighborhood.
  • kennels and cages are not required unless you plan on leaving your dogs inside the house while you are away
  • we do have a cage available
  • you will be responsible for any damages done by your pet
• check in and check out times -- we want to be as flexible as possible to meet the needs of all of our guests.
  • check-in time is 3:00 pm or later. This can be earlier by advance arrangement.
  • check-out time is 11:00 am or earlier. This can be later by advance arrangement.
  • if there are no other guests scheduled for the nights before or after your stay, then we can be flexible with your check-in or check-out times.
  • if other guests are scheduled, then we must insist on your honoring the stated times. This can change even up to the day of your stay, so advance arrangements may be altered at the last moment. This gives us an opportunity to prepare the facility for the next guest.
  • if you wish to reserve an early check-in and/or a late check-out, and there are no other guests scheduled, you may reserve this by paying the guarantee fee ($50) for each with your deposit.
• outdoor fire pit is available unless Hill County Commissioner's Court has instituted a "burn ban"
