Our cancelation policy
Our demand exceeds our supply... When you book a date, we end up turning away other customers that want that date. As such deposits are NON RERFUNDABLE. Also, deposits are for the number you specify. For example, if you send in a deposit for 6 hunters and only 4 show up, the other 2 hunter's deposit is forfeited and cannot be credited towards the balance due on the four hunters.
