| LODGING: Our goal is to make you private party with us an exceptional experience. Since we are not a regular restaurant open for walk-in business, we can offer a very different atmosphere for that special occasion. However, we non-lodging guests. Reservations: For a party of 2-6 People we request at least 48 hours notice. For a party of 7-30 People we request at least 1-week notice. If the number of guests is decreasing, please let us know at least 24 hours in advance. If you fail to notify us of a decrease in the number of guests, you will be required to pay for the number contracted. So if someone cancels at the last minute, grab a friend to bring along! The reason for this is that we have already bought and prepared the food for this one-time event. If the number of guests increases and you fail to notify us, there may or may not be enough food to go around. There will be a per person charge for extra guests. Menu: The menu items must be agreed upon in advance to allow for shopping and preparation. We are not a full service restaurant with large walk-in style refrigerators and freezers. We have limited cold storage space and we shop at the same grocery store as our neighbors. If you have something in mind for your party and you do not see it on the menu, ask us: we may be able to accommodate you. We have found that for most parties, the most economical method is for your party to agree on one or two items for your party’s menu. Setting: We proudly provide an elegant ambiance for your party. Unless otherwise arranged, all private parties will be served with china, crystal, silver, and lace and cloth table linens. The time needed to properly handle these items is part of the cost of your experience here at the Crystal Key Inn. There is no smoking allowed anywhere inside the Crystal Key Inn. Ashtrays will be provided on the porch if needed. Deposit: For parties of 5 or more, there will be a 50% deposit to hold your reservation and allow for shopping. The balance is due at the completion of the party. Whenever possible, we prefer a single payer since we do not have a till. The deposit is 80% refundable if the party is cancelled at least 72 hours before the scheduled party and we have not been shopping yet. We try not to shop any earlier than necessary so that we can guarantee freshness. Some specialty items may require earlier shopping. If a party is cancelled less than 48 hours ahead of schedule, then the deposit is forfeited. |
