Important Snowmobile Rental Information and Policies
An Understanding – Release of Liability

Snowmobile Rental Damage Deposit Details
On the day of the rental, renters will be required to purchase a damage waiver program. Assuming no damages at the end of your rental, your chosen security deposit will be voided. If there are damages associated with the operation of the rental, the credit card will be charged in full for all damages and retrieval costs that are incurred.

Don’t Be Stupid ~ Ride Sober!
Maine has a very strict OUI law for snowmobile operators. Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or demonstrating unruly behavior, will be denied services without refund.

Full refunds are provided for cancellations made up to 2 weeks prior to reservation, minus the 5% booking fee. Cancellations made inside 2 weeks to arrival forfeit 50% of the full rental fee, and any cancellations made within 48 hours to arrival are non-refundable.
Rebooking: If you need to reschedule your rental within the same season (if availability exists), there will be a $25 rebooking fee per machine. If it cannot be rescheduled within the same season, it is considered a cancellation.
