Cancellation Policy

In the event that you have to cancel, we will give a full refund for those who provide at least 10 days advance notice, and a refund of half the cost after that. There will be no refund for cancellations less than 48 hours in advance, since it's pretty challenging for us to fill a vacant spot on such short notice!
