Check-out GUIDE

we hope you’ve made wonderful memories at Creekside Cabin!

Before you head home, we’d love your help with a few quick check-out steps. These little things make a big difference and help us keep the cabin cozy, clean, and affordable for everyone. 

🧺 Quick Clean-Up

• Dishes: Please load and start the dishwasher before you leave.

• Fridge & Freezer: Remove any leftover food or drinks.

• Games & Toys: Return puzzles, games, and toys to their original spots.

• Trash: Bag all trash and place it in the outdoor bear-proof bin (lock it, please — our furry neighbors get curious!).

      *If you have extra bags that won’t fit, leave them neatly by the kitchen trash can.

• Hot Tub: Set the mode to 100°F and secure the cover.

• Grill/Griddle: Clean after use and leave no food behind.

• Towels: Place all used towels in the laundry hamper in the laundry room.

      *Please don’t strip the beds — our cleaners will take care of that.

• Furniture: Return any moved furniture or cushions to their original place.

• Kayaks & Outdoor Gear: Rinse and return kayaks, yard games, or other items to their storage spots (preferably under the deck).
  
  

📋 Guest Passes & Safety

• Guest Passes: Please return both guest cards to the hooks by the fridge.

      *Missing cards incur a $50 replacement fee (per card).

• Lights & Doors: Turn off all lights except the front porch light, and double-check the back deck floodlights so they’re off.

• Lock Up: Please make sure all doors and windows are locked before leaving.

💬 Final Notes

The cleaning fee you paid covers only part of our cleaners’ costs (we actually pay the rest ourselves to keep overall booking fees low).
 

Your help with tidying ensures we can continue keeping rates fair for future guests — so thank you!

We’d be so grateful if you left us a 5-star review — it really helps more families discover our little slice of Ellijay!

Safe travels home,
Ankur & Julie
