Absolutely! Trip insurance can be purchased for about 7% of the cost of your stay, not including your travel. You can also purchase (CFAR) “Cancel For Any Reason” trip insurance for just under 10% of the cost of the trip. This is a separate, private policy YOU purchase. We do not receive any compensation from this policy, but we believe the peace of mind is priceless! Trip cancellation insurance is strongly recommended if you think your plans may change or if traveling during winter storm season. As per our cancellation policy, there are no refunds with less than 30 days notice. You will be given the opportunity to purchase optional travel insurance when booking if dates are more than 30 days in advance.
