Rental Agreement & Terms

GUEST RENTAL AGREEMENT

Revised April 24, 2026

This Guest Rental Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into between Elite Lake Rentals LLC ("Elite," "Company," "we," or "us"), acting for itself and for the owner of the Property ("Owner"), and the person who is the responsible renter of the Property (collectively "Renter" or "you"). This Agreement is a vacation rental agreement for transient occupancy of the Property and does not create a residential lease, tenancy, or landlord-tenant relationship under Wisconsin law or the law of any other jurisdiction.

By booking your rental of the Property with Elite, you acknowledge that you have read and understand, and agree to be bound by, all terms, conditions, and policies in this Agreement, including any Property-Specific Terms (collectively, the "Terms").

ARTICLE I: PROPERTY USE AND OCCUPANCY

Section 1.1 Maximum Occupancy

The Property shall not be used at any time by more than the number of adults and children listed in your confirmed reservation. All occupants must be registered guests. Exceeding maximum occupancy at any time, including with day visitors, is prohibited and may result in immediate termination of the rental agreement without refund.

Visitor Restrictions:

•     Day visitors are permitted but total people on property (guests + visitors) may not exceed maximum occupancy plus 4 additional people

•     Any visitors that would cause the property to exceed maximum occupancy must be pre-approved by Elite

•     No visitors are allowed at the property past 10:00 PM if their presence would exceed maximum occupancy

•     Overnight guests that would exceed maximum occupancy are strictly prohibited

•     All visitors must comply with property rules and quiet hours

Section 1.2 Minimum Age Requirements

The "Minimum Age" to rent the Property is twenty-five (25) years of age, or the age specified in any Property-Specific Terms. The primary Renter who makes the reservation must be at least 25 years of age and must be present at the Property for the entire duration of the rental.

Age Requirements: Primary Renter must be 25+ and present for entire stay. All guests must be 18+ unless they are minor children supervised by an adult 25+. There must be at least one guest 25+ for every two guests under 25. Elite may verify ages at check-in or any time during stay. All guests must be registered on reservation and count toward occupancy limits.

Children and Young Adult Guests: Minor children (under 18) traveling with their parents/legal guardians are welcome and count toward maximum occupancy. The primary Renter (25+) is responsible for supervising all guests under 25.

Consequences for Age Misrepresentation: Providing false information about age during booking or check-in constitutes fraud and breach of this Agreement. If it is discovered that the primary Renter is under 25, any guest is under 18 (except minor children with proper supervision), or the 25+/under-25 supervision ratio is violated, Elite may immediately cancel the reservation and remove all occupants from the Property without refund. All rental payments, fees, and deposits are forfeited if the reservation is cancelled due to age misrepresentation.

Section 1.3 Responsible Renter

As the Renter, you agree to be an occupant of the Property for the entire duration of the rental. All other occupants will be family members, friends, other responsible adults over the Minimum Age, or accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. You agree to be solely responsible for your actions and the actions of all family members, guests, and invitees (collectively, "Occupants") present at the Property at any time during your stay, and to ensure that all Occupants understand and comply with the Terms.

Section 1.4 No Permanent Residence

You agree that your use of the Property is on a temporary and transient basis only; that you may not use the Property as a permanent residence; and that your permanent residence is and will remain elsewhere than at the Property.

Section 1.5 Unregistered Guests and Visitor Policies

Only registered guests may stay overnight at the Property. Unauthorized visitors or gatherings are strictly prohibited. All overnight guests must be registered on the reservation at time of booking or added with prior approval. Day visitors are permitted but must leave by 10:00 p.m. unless specifically approved. The primary Renter is responsible for ensuring all guests, visitors, and friends comply with all property rules. Unauthorized overnight guests will result in immediate termination of the rental agreement without refund.

Section 1.6 Corporate and Third-Party Bookings

If the Renter is a business entity, organization, or any party other than the individual(s) who will occupy the Property, the Renter is fully responsible for the conduct of all Occupants placed at the Property, including compliance with all Terms. The Renter's obligations under this Agreement, including Sections 7.2 (Damage and Liability), 12.3 (Legal Fees), and 14.4 (Indemnification), apply with full force regardless of whether the Renter personally occupies the Property. The Renter may not assign or delegate its obligations under this Agreement to the Occupants or any third party without Elite's prior written consent.

Section 1.7 No Subletting or Assignment

Renter may not sublet, sublicense, or assign this Agreement or any rights under it to any third party without Elite's prior written consent. Occupancy is limited to the registered guests identified in the reservation.

Section 1.8 Extensions

Any extension of the original reservation period requires Elite's prior written approval and payment in advance. All terms of this Agreement apply to any extension period. Extended stays do not create a residential tenancy, landlord-tenant relationship, or any rights beyond those expressly stated in this Agreement, regardless of the total duration of occupancy.

ARTICLE II: CONDUCT AND BEHAVIOR POLICIES

Section 2.1 Good Neighbor Policy

Because the Property is a privately owned home, all Occupants must comply with this good neighbor policy. Please treat the Property with the same care you would use with your own residence and leave it in the same condition it was in when you arrived. You and other Occupants agree to conduct yourselves throughout your stay in a manner that is respectful of and not disruptive to neighbors, traffic flow, or the community and that will not prompt complaints to Elite from police, neighbors, or neighborhood or homeowner associations.

Quiet Hours and Noise Policy: Noise audible outside the Property is prohibited between 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. You and other Occupants agree to abide by all applicable parking restrictions and limitations.

Noise Monitoring: Elite properties are proactively monitored for compliance with this noise policy. Decibel sensors notify Elite of sounds in the property that exceed 75 decibels (dB). The noise sensors are 100% privacy compliant and required on this property. You hereby consent to the use of sound level monitoring. If Elite receives a noise complaint from a neighbor and/or receives a notification that the noise level in the property has exceeded 75dB, Elite will contact you and issue a first warning to reduce the noise level. If, after the first warning, Elite subsequently receives an additional noise complaint and/or notification that the noise level in the property has exceeded 75dB, Elite reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge you a penalty of $500 and/or remove you and all occupants from the property without a refund.

Section 2.2 Prohibited Activities

The following activities are strictly prohibited:

a) Smoking and Vaping: No smoking or vaping is permitted inside any Property or on any covered outdoor areas, wooden decks, or wooden surfaces. Smoking is only permitted in the driveway area or by fire pits (when active), and all cigarette butts must be properly disposed of. Violation will result in a damage fee of $1,000.

b) Criminal Activity: Including but not limited to underage drinking, marijuana use, illegal drugs, drug paraphernalia, illegal downloads, and any violation of federal, state, or local laws — results in immediate removal from the Property without refund. This prohibition extends to use of the Property's internet service for criminal activity. Elite may cooperate with any investigation of alleged criminal activity that occurred at the Property during your stay.

c) Commercial Use: Commercial photography, filming, or events are prohibited without express written permission from Elite. If approved, additional conditions and fees may apply.

d) Confetti and Glitter: Use or bringing of confetti and/or glitter onto any part of the property is prohibited. If any of these items are found on the property, it will result in a damage fee of $1,000.

e) Indoor Candles and Open Flames: For safety reasons, the use of candles or any item with an open flame is strictly prohibited inside the Property. This includes, but is not limited to, decorative candles, scented candles, incense, or ceremonial flames. Violation of this policy may result in immediate removal from the Property without refund and an additional cleaning or damage fee of up to $1,000.

f) Safety Device Tampering: Tampering with or disabling smoke detectors, CO detectors, cameras, or noise monitors is prohibited. A $500 fee may be assessed for violations.

ARTICLE III: ANIMALS AND PETS

Section 3.1 Pet Policy

No animals or pets of any kind are permitted at the Property except if: (1) the home is specifically listed as dog friendly, or (2) they are recognized as bona fide service animals that we are required by law to allow under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Emotional support animals are not permitted. You agree that a prohibition on animals is not a guarantee that an animal has not been inside the Property or that the Property is free of animal or pet allergens. Violation of the pet policy will result in a charge of up to $1,000 and removal from the property.

ARTICLE IV: STRUCTURES, VEHICLES, AND EQUIPMENT

For reservations made through third-party booking channels where a credit card is not automatically provided to Elite, Renter must provide one directly to Elite before golf cart use will be permitted. Only licensed and insured drivers age 21 and older may operate golf carts. Golf cart operators must comply with all local traffic laws and posted property rules.

You agree to contact Elite immediately upon noticing any maintenance or housekeeping problem, or any potentially hazardous condition. Issues present upon arrival must be reported by 10:00 AM the day after arrival. Issues discovered during your stay must be reported within 1 hour of discovery. Elite will respond to reported issues within a reasonable timeframe during business hours. Guests must allow Elite reasonable access to the Property for inspections, repairs, and maintenance, and must allow vendor and contractor entry to remedy reported issues. Guests must provide Elite reasonable opportunity and timeframe to remedy reported problems.

Section 7.2 Damage and Liability

Renter is liable for any and all damage to the property and agrees to accept charges to the card on file should damage occur during occupancy. You authorize Elite to bill your credit card for: any damage or loss occurring at the Property during your stay; violation fees as specified in this Agreement; additional cleaning fees up to $1,000 for excessive cleaning beyond standard turnover; relocation costs if future reservations must be moved due to intentional damage; any fines issued by authorities for violations during your stay; fire-related damages including structural repairs, landscaping restoration, furniture replacement, smoke damage remediation, and fire department response fees; emergency response costs associated with emergency services called due to your actions or negligence; and septic system costs including pump-outs, repairs, replacements, and related property damage caused by misuse or violations.

Renter is responsible for intentional damage and any unreported damage, whether accidental or otherwise, and authorizes Elite to bill the credit card on file for all repairs and replacements needed. If the credit card on file is unavailable, declined, or insufficient, Renter agrees to remit payment promptly upon demand through any method accepted by Elite, including but not limited to ACH, wire transfer, or electronic payment. Elite reserves the right to pursue collection through all available legal remedies for any unpaid balance. All damage must be reported to Elite prior to departing the property. Failure to report damage prior to departure does not relieve Renter of liability under this Section but may affect the availability of coverage under the Limited Damage Waiver.

Section 7.3 Additional Fees

•     Late Departure Fee: Up to one night's rental if you fail to vacate by check-out time

•     Excessive Cleaning Fee: Up to $1,000 for cleaning beyond standard turnover requirements

This includes mattresses, linens, towels, upholstery, carpeting, and any other affected property contents. If professional biohazard remediation is required, Renter is responsible for the full cost. This fee is not subject to the $1,000 excessive cleaning cap.

ARTICLE VIII: CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICIES

Section 8.1 Cancellation Policy

Rental payments are fully refundable (less 3.5% processing fee and Admin fee) for cancellations received 60 or more days before the first night of your reservation.

ARTICLE IX: CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT

Section 9.1 Check-In and Check-Out Times

Check-in begins at 4:00 PM and check-out is at 10:00 AM. Elite will message guests if the property is ready early and activate their unique door code for early entry at that time.

Section 9.2 Late Check-Out

Late check-out may be available by request for a fee. Since Elite does not hold dates without payment, late check-out cannot be guaranteed and requests will not be approved until the evening before your departure date. Failure to vacate by the designated checkout time (or approved late checkout time) authorizes Elite to charge a late departure fee of up to one full night's rental for each day or partial day of unauthorized occupancy, and to remove occupants and personal property with or without law enforcement assistance. Unauthorized occupancy beyond checkout does not create any tenancy or right to remain at the Property.

Section 9.3 Checkout Requirements

•     Place all wet towels in the tub/shower

•     Load and start the dishwasher, or if the property does not have a dishwasher, ensure all dishes and utensils are rinsed and stacked in the sink

•     Turn off all lights

•     Secure the Property

Failure to follow checkout procedures may result in additional cleaning fees.

Section 9.4 Lost and Found

Elite Lake Rentals is not responsible for items left behind by Renter or Occupants. It is the Renter's sole responsibility to ensure all personal belongings are removed from the Property prior to checkout. If Renter believes items were left behind, Renter may contact Elite by phone or email to request a search. Elite will make reasonable efforts to locate requested items but cannot guarantee items will be found, and Elite is not liable for any items that are lost, damaged, discarded, or otherwise not recovered after departure. If items are found and Renter requests shipping, Renter is responsible for all shipping costs. Items not claimed within 14 days of checkout may be disposed of at Elite's discretion.

Section 9.5 Keyless Entry Systems

All Elite Lake Rentals properties feature keyless entry systems. If you experience access issues, contact Elite immediately for remote assistance or new access codes. Elite is responsible for maintaining keyless entry system functionality, including battery replacement.

ARTICLE X: GUEST VERIFICATION AND DAMAGE WAIVER

Renter gives permission to Elite's designated guest verification provider to verify identity and check criminal databases to confirm the reservation. Complete terms regarding guest verification are available upon request.

Section 10.2 Limited Damage Waiver

The reservation includes a Limited Damage Waiver that provides coverage for accidental damage to property contents, real property, and bodily injury during the rental period, subject to the terms, conditions, coverage limits, and exclusions of Elite's designated coverage provider. Coverage details are available upon request. All damage must be reported to Elite prior to departing the property for claims to be approved. Renter is responsible for intentional damage and any unreported damage, whether accidental or otherwise, and authorizes Elite to bill the credit card on file for all repairs and replacements needed. If the credit card on file is unavailable, declined, or insufficient, Renter agrees to remit payment promptly upon demand through any method accepted by Elite, including but not limited to ACH, wire transfer, or electronic payment. Elite reserves the right to pursue collection through all available legal remedies for any unpaid balance. Failure to report damage prior to departure does not relieve Renter of liability under Section 7.2 but may affect the availability of coverage under the Limited Damage Waiver.

ARTICLE XI: EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

Section 11.1 Emergency Response

Elite provides a 24/7 guest service phone number for emergencies. Emergency issues (HVAC failure, plumbing problems, fire, injury, alarms) will be addressed immediately. Non-urgent concerns may be handled the next business day.

ARTICLE XII: LEGAL PROVISIONS

Section 12.1 Property Substitution

Elite reserves the right to substitute a comparable property from its managed portfolio if the original Property becomes unavailable due to ownership changes, removal from rental use, or extensive repairs needed.

If the alternative property rate exceeds the original reservation rate, the guest is responsible for paying the difference.

Section 12.2 Chargeback Waiver

Renter agrees not to initiate a credit card chargeback without first attempting resolution with Elite Lake Rentals.

Section 12.3 Legal Fees

Renter agrees to pay all reasonable attorney's fees, legal costs, and collection costs incurred by Elite in enforcing this Agreement, recovering damages, pursuing unpaid balances, or defending claims arising from Renter's or Occupants' actions during the stay.
