Cancellation Policy?

For my parents 50th wedding anniversary (which is today) I booked them a week at a Spa in Lake Placid. This place is awesome. But I just went on their site and noticed their cancellation policy


Cancellation Policy:
If you find it necessary to cancel or change your dates, (a change in arrival or departure date constitutes a cancellation), please notify us at least 14 days prior to arrival and your deposit will be refunded. If you cancel with less than 14 days* advance notice, you will be responsible for the entire length of your stay. We do not overbook, and we guarantee your room, therefore we cannot make any exceptions, (illness, deaths, weather, snowstorm, accidents, etc.). If this policy is uncomfortable to you please consider Travel Insurance or other accommodations.



Is this common? I've never seen this? Is this legal?
So if someone dies or they get into an accident on the way, these f'ers will not refund me?

wow, so you can't even change you're arrival or departure date without them considering it a cancellation?
2 weeks advance notice is a LONG time. that sucks.
 
I think so.

I think its just a risk you take. I've bought travel insurance before on my expensive trips because if a close family member dies, or I get in an accident, or whatever....I'm covered.

I know, it's odd. I guess they can do this?!
I wish I would have seen this before


Cindy...I may get some cancellation insurance in case



BW1....no, my Dad is a great driver. He's 75 and sharp, but my Mom bitches at him while he drives so you never know ;-)
It's only a 90 mins drive from us so not too far!
 
that's why you buy travel insurance for expensive trips

i almost got screwed on a spring break trip when one person cancelled but the spot was filled

Always is the womans fault
 
Fuck, just send them to Scandinave Spa in Mont-Tremblant..... $120/day including 1 hour massage and volcanic massage as well.
 
BLUE since your parents have managed to stay together for 50 years, why dont you think thats possible anymore today?

I did that last summer. It's a great place, but it's only a day spa. The place I'm sending my parents to is a resort.
What is great about Scandinave is if you don't want the massage, you can just hang at the spa all day for $40 and use all the facilities.
This is us in the Diablo river after a hot bath.

ANother one I tried last week is the Polar Bear Club in Piedmont (5 minutes after St-Jerome). They also have a resort. $35/day with a nice river, 2 saunas (hot and wet). One of my favorite so far.
 
ive found that at the smaller of two places I am going to on my honeymoon,they only have 8 rooms so if they allowed short notice cancellations think of how often they would get screwed, sucks if a accident or whatever happens especially when these places cost a ton anyway, for 3 nights its 900bucks spa stuff extra

I guess too much choice!......not sure. I never wanted to get married. My ex of 11 yrs and I were engaged but I gave the ring back.
I have two olders sisters, both never married either. My oldest sis has two kids with the same guy and has been with him for 25 yrs, but they never wanted to get married.
I guess back when my parents did it, that's what you had to do to have kids and such.
They do love each other, but I think many time wanted to set one another on fire.....heheh!

That's the only reason I can think why people stay married so long.

Oh never heard of that one......I'll google it.
I love jumping in the cold river after a hot bath....I felt so WELL when I did that!
Thanks :-)

This place is larger than that. Maybe I'm just naive about these things. I don't travel much.

Where are u going for the honeymoon. US Or staying in canada?
 
It looks awesome. Almost nicer than the one in Tremblant.
I'm going!

Oh wait...I can't! It says

Warnings:

Fantastic pictures, Blue.


I bet they talk about the best gift they got all the way to Lake Placid---YOU!

Of course, cause I'm their favorite daughter...hehe!
My sisters and I got them the gift.

They are really going to like this. We wanted to send them to Europe, but my Dad doesn't want to fly anymore. Phewww cause I would have had to strip again to pay for that trip ;-)

I have an older brother and sister. We kept their 50th low key, as that is what they wnated at the time. My bro and sister flew in and we just took them to dinner. We did, however, buy them both new carpet for the living room and family room. What is it about older people NOT wanting to update shit in their house?lol

I miss my mom and dad. I , like you, was so lucky to have fantastic parents.

when you book tru sites like Travelocity, Expedia, etc they usually have cancellation insurance available for a pretty low price - always worth it for an expensive trip

Ahhh G, We will adopt you. I'm so sorry! They raised a very special person though.
How old were they?


My dad was 79 when he passed. My mother followed him 7 months later, she was 74.
