We have a cottage in a family-oriented resort community that we rent out thorughout the summer. I had a booking request from a guest: they wanted to book a weekend in June for a birthday. They said that they had a friend with a cottage at the park, and they would mostly be at the other trailer: so far, so good. I approved them.
Now we're closer to the checkin date, I sent the guest a copy of the park agreement that they have to fill in before arrival. I had written 4 people on the agreement, which is what the guest had booked. I got a message back, saying that there were now 6 people because the other cottage had fallen through. I sent a message back saying that 6 guests were fine, and I also sent through a reservation change request. I also mentioned that as per the resort rules, only the 6 registered guests would be allowed to occupy the cottage, in accordance with the resort rules. I also reminded them that we do not allow parties. I was concerned about it because it seems like if the original place where they were going to be celebrating is no longer available, where else are they going to have a party/get together?
Since that message was sent, I have not received a response from the guest. They have also not accepted the change to 6 guests. At this point, I'm pretty concerned about their intentions. I can defintely forsee a party situation, but I'm wondering if I'm being too paranoid. I'd like to hear other hosts' thoughts about it.
Thanks!
