2. Liability: The Lessee is responsible for the actions of all occupants and visitors.
3. Use of property: Furniture and objects must be used for their intended purpose. The Lessee is responsible for any damage caused to the rented premises, including the grounds and outdoor equipment.
4. Cleanliness: Additional cleaning fees may be charged if necessary.
5. Local wildlife: The occasional presence of small animals or insects in the chalet is normal in a rural environment and does not constitute grounds for refund or cancellation. Diligent precautions were taken to prevent these visitors from infiltrating the chalet.

NUMBER OF PERSONS

1. Capacity: Respect the number of people indicated in the contract. Any additional person, for one or more nights or visits during your stay, must be approved in advance by the Lessor.

PARTIES, MUSIC AND SOUND NOISE

1. Music: Our chalet is in a small community where respect is important. Music must be played in an acceptable manner (do not disturb the neighbors).
2. Around and on the lake: No loud music on or near the lake. The lake is a resonating chamber, and noise travels very easily.

4. Fireworks: Strictly prohibited.

IN THE CHALET

1. Shoes: Remove your shoes inside.
2. Doors and Windows: Keep exterior doors closed and ensure that doors, patio doors, and windows are securely closed in case of rain or when you are away.

FURNITURE AND SURFACES

1. Surface Protection: Use trivets, placemats, or coasters to protect furniture and surfaces from hot objects or other breakage.

WATER MANAGEMENT

1. Proper Toilet Use: Only flush toilet paper down the toilet. Sanitary products, diapers, wipes, tampons, sanitary napkins, tissues, etc., must be disposed of in the designated bins.
2. Water Consumption: As water is a precious resource in rural areas, please use it responsibly to prevent the well from drying up. The well can easily accommodate normal use for approximately ten people. Therefore, in the event of misuse, the Lessor will not accept these reasons as grounds for canceling a rental and/or requesting a refund.
3. Water Supply: The chalet is supplied by an artesian well. This precious resource is not in unlimited supply. Therefore, you should prioritize:
   • Quick showers spread throughout the day.
   • Avoid baths.
   • Avoid outdoor watering.
   • Minimize washing machine use.
   • Maximize lake water; it is in unlimited supply.

PETS
