The deposit will apply towards the cost of the rental.  The first party to book the home and send in the $2,000 deposit secures the home for that week.  When a booking is secured you are guaranteed the rental rate posted at that time of booking (posted discounts apply only to current year).  This home allows weddings and will allow pre-bookings for up to two years in advance.  There is a $1,500 refundable damage deposit for all weddings in this home.  There is a $500 non-refundable wedding/event fee.
