Hold Harmless Agreement

​

Trips, falls, and accidents can happen in any home. The shoreline of Lake Superior can be inherently dangerous. Old logs with long spikes from old cribs are on the beach and often wash up on shore. Watching your step and using caution in nature is always required. The cold water of the lake can shock and immobilize. Campfires are beautiful, but can be dangerous too.

​

Except for gross disregard, neglect and intentional disrepair of things within owners control, renters agree to hold owners harmless in regards to accidental injury incurred while occupying the property. Renters are responsible for their own actions, compromises, deficiencies, and negligence.
