In the event SRM is unable to deliver the Property to Licensee because of property sale, property owner decision, fire, mandatory evacuation, eminent domain or Acts of Nature, or if the property is unavailable because of construction delays or lack of utilities, Licensee agrees that SRM sole liability, as a result of any of these conditions, will be a full refund of all payments tendered by Licensee.

If SRM is able to relocate Licensee, Licensee agrees to pay the difference in rental amount, should Licensee accept alternate accommodations. Licensee expressly acknowledges that in no event will SRM be held liable for any other condition out of the control of SRM or the Owner, or for any incidental or consequential damages, including but not limited to, expenses that result from moving or for any other losses.

Tenancy:
The Licensee acknowledges that this is NOT a tenancy for the Property. The Property is not rented for more than 30 days, and is taxed and treated as a transient occupancy, akin to hotel accommodations. Property laws do not apply to the license granted herein, and the Licensee may be removed as a trespasser immediately upon termination of this license. The Property is rented on regular short-term periods, and for a significantly higher rate than a non-vacation rental. Often a licensee is scheduled to begin a vacation in the Property on the same day as the check-out day of another prior licensee. If Licensee stays even one additional day, SRM would face significant logistical problems with the next licensee, including possible liability. As such, Licensee agrees to vacate immediately on the check-out day, at designated time. Failure to do so will entitle SRM, in addition to all other remedies available to it, to: have Licensee ejected by law enforcement as trespasser; and to physically remove Licensee and all of Licensee’s possessions from the Property, for which Licensee hereby grants permission and consent; and obtain damages and injunctive relief against Licensee.
Indemnification:
Licensee agrees to release and indemnify SRM and Owner from and against all liability should anyone be injured upon the premises during the term of occupancy, resulting from any cause whatsoever, except in the case of personal injury caused by willful gross negligence on the part of the Owner or SRM.
Owner Changes:
Every effort is made to ensure all information on the web site and other documentation is accurate and complete. However, SRM is not liable for errors, omissions, mistakes, price changes and any changes by the Owner in furnishings, equipment, bed arrangements and other accommodations.
Effective Date:
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Occupancy Agreement is binding and effective when no signature is required, and Licensee's affirmative assent to the terms is expressed by Licensee's reservation of the unit. If Licensee desires to terminate this agreement due to lack of assent, he/she must do so within three days of the date the reservation was made and SRM receives a Reservation Deposit.
Governing Law:
The terms and conditions stated herein will be interpreted by and governed under the laws of the State of West Virginia and any action arising out of this agreement shall be litigated in Tucker County West Virginia.

Invalid Provisions:
If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term hereof, such provision shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof; and the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of the Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and still be legal, valid, or enforceable.
Entire Agreement:
This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof. No amendment or modification hereto shall be binding unless made in writing and signed by the parties hereto.
Waiver:
The waiver by either party hereto of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of same provision by any party or of the breach of any other term or provisions of this Agreement.
