VIRUS CONCERNS: We recognize that all parents and grandparents are concerned about doing everything they can to protect the health of their families. We feel the same way and do everything we can to give you confidence that your family’s health is protected at North Haven Family Retreat. Here are the details. First, the house is thoroughly cleaned by our housekeeping staff. Then, upon your arrival, you will find that we have provided commercially laundered bed linens for your family, including freshly laundered sheets, mattress covers, blankets and two freshly laundered cases for each bed pillow. And we provide a large supply of wipes for you in the case that you chose to do additional sanitizing. At your option, the house offers optional Orkin VitalClean third party professional sanitation service prior to check-in. Orkin's trained technicians wipe down all high-touch surfaces followed by a misting application using specialized equipment and its EPA "List N" disinfectant which is both effective against viruses including COVID-19 and also carries the EPA's lowest toxicity rating (Category IV), defined as “practically non-toxic and not an irritant.” Let us know what else we can do to make you confident that your family gathering will be safe and relaxing.

CANCELLATION & TRAVEL PROTECTION POLICIES: We do not offer refunds for cancelled reservations. Our cancellation policy needs to be this strict because most families book their gatherings 5 to 7 months in advance. As such even 60 days notice often does not allow for a comparable rebooking. Therefore we strongly recommend that you purchase VRBO's Travel Protection policy. We will even reimburse you for half the cost of that policy if unused at check out. In addition, if you do have to cancel for any reason, we will use our best effort to rebook your dates with another family to recover any uninsured loss of your investment.
