Question 3

Is there a damage deposit for tool rentals in Muskoka Lakes?

Accepted Answer

Listers may set an optional security deposit, which is placed as an authorization hold on the renter's card at handoff — not at booking. The hold is released automatically when the rental ends with no damage claim. Renters can also add an optional damage waiver at checkout, contributing to a reserve fund that may help offset repair costs in case of accidental damage. It is not insurance.
