Cancellation Policy

 

30 Day Cancellation Policy 

To cancel a reservation with no fees, it must be done so 31 days prior to check in date. 

Non-Holiday Reservations: 

If a reservation is cancelled within the 30-day policy window, but is not taking place during an observed holiday, the first night only will be charged to the card on file. 

Holiday Reservations:

 If a reservation is cancelled within the 30-day policy window and taking place during an observed holiday, the entire reservation will be charged to the card on file. 

 

Fire Season
Wildfire is part of the ecosystem of the Methow Valley. Fire Season is typically mid-July through early October. Smokey air and the potential for road closures can be expected. Booking a reservation during the fire season comes with risk. The Freestone Inn will follow normal cancellation policy unless extreme situation arises.

Winter Season

Snow is a part of our environment typically November through April every year. On average we receive 155 inches of snowfall a year and frequently this effects the pass conditions. If guests are booking during this time, it should be understood they are doing so at their own risk. Our only exception to our normal cancellations policy’s during winter is if all passes are closed, we will waive our policy. If one or more passes are open the cancellation policy is still valid.
