Bentwater Homeowners Association Clubhouse

 

The Bentwater Clubhouse has two rooms available for rent to Bentwater residents only.  Please call the office
at 770-529-8585 to see if the date and room you are interested in are available -- the sooner the better,
as our rooms rent VERY quickly.

Set up before and clean up after events will be the responsibility of the resident renting either or both space(s). Any cleanup that is not taken care of before the end of an event will result in compensation taken out of the deposit.

RENTAL PROCESS:  

* Minimum hours for rentals: Weekdays - 1 hour, Friday - 3 hours ,  
  Saturday - 5 hours, Sunday - 3 hours with a 4th hour free.

* Upon Reservation:  We take a $500 reservation deposit from you to hold the room and it is also held against any damages or if we don't get our key back, or if other restrictions are not observed.  We only take checks/money orders.  No cash ever, and we are not set up to accept credit/debit cards.

* ALL RESERVATIONS must be made in person by the Bentwater resident, and the $500 reservation fee must be given at that time.  We do not take reservations over the phone or by email.

* ONE OR TWO DAYS BEFORE YOUR EVENT, you will be required to come to a final walk-through, and confer with the setup staff.  The Terrace Room can be staged to your liking, but the Parlor Room cannot be changed around.  At that time you will sign the contract with us and pay for the event in full.  The $500 deposit does not go toward your room rental fees.  You will also get a key to the clubhouse at this time, as we are not on site on weekends.  You will have all your questions answered and will be instructed how to return the key to us.

JUST A FEW DETAILS ABOUT ROOM RENTALS:  

You MUST be a Bentwater resident, in good standing with your HOA fees, to rent rooms in the clubhouse.  THIS MEANS THAT YOU MUST BE PAID UP ON ALL YOUR HOA FEES AND ANY OTHER CHARGES BEFORE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RENT AN AREA IN THE CLUBHOUSE.  

If you are a Bentwater resident, and wish to sponsor someone's event who is not a resident, you MUST be current on all your HOA fees, and you MUST come to reserve this room yourself, and supply the $500 reservation deposit.  

You MUST also come to the final walk-through and you will be required to pay for the entire event at that time, and also sign our contract.  If the sponsored party wants to pay, they must simply reimburse you after you have paid.  

Also, you MUST be attending this event yourself.  

YOU MAY NOT JUST GIVE YOUR ADDRESS TO A NON-RESIDENT.  YOU MUST BE PARTICIPATING IN AND ATTENDING THE EVENT, AND YOU MUST BE THE ONE WHO PAYS ALL THE FEES.  REMEMBER, YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FINANCIALLY IF ANY DAMAGE IS DONE OR IF WE DON'T GET OUR KEY BACK, OR IF OTHER RULES ARE NOT FOLLOWED.  PLEASE BE CIRCUMSPECT IN YOUR THINKING IF YOU PLAN TO SPONSOR SOMEONE FOR A RENTAL.

ONE OTHER ITEM:  OUR ROOMS ARE RENTED/PROVIDED TO RESIDENTS WHO REQUEST THEM IN THE PROPER WAYS DESCRIBED ABOVE. 

SOME GROUPS WHO USE CERTAIN ROOMS ON A REGULAR MONTHLY BASIS WITHOUT PAYING A FEE, SUCH AS THE BRIDGE CLUB, SENIOR GROUP, EUCHRE GROUP, ETC, MUST SUBMIT A PROPOSAL TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR APPROVAL AND MEET CERTAIN CONDITIONS.  THE ATTENDEES MUST BE BENTWATER RESIDENTS.  

NOBODY IS ALLOWED TO JUST SHOW UP AND ANNOUNCE THAT THEY ARE GOING TO USE A ROOM WITHOUT EITHER RENTING IT IN ADVANCE, OR GOING THROUGH THE BOARD AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.

THERE ARE TWO OUTSIDE VENUES THAT WE DO RENT ONLY TO RESIDENTS IN BENTWATER.  THIS IS THE CEDARCREST FIELD NEXT TO THE MAIN CLUBHOUSE AND THE HIGHCREST FIELD.  IT MAY BE RENTED UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES:

* YOU MUST COME IN PERSON TO RESERVE THE FIELD.  AS ABOVE, YOU MUST BE A RESIDENT IN GOOD STANDING TO RENT THE FIELD. 

* WE DO NOT RENT THE PAVILION THAT IS IN BETWEEN THE TENNIS COURT AND THE FIELD.  SO YOU WOULD BE RENTING THE FIELD ONLY.  YOU ARE ALLOWED TO USE THE PAVILION IF NOBODY ELSE IS USING IT, BUT YOU CANNOT RENT IT FOR YOUR EXCLUSIVE USE.  

* YOU WILL PAY A $500 RESERVATION FEE AGAINST DAMAGES FOR THE FIELD BEING RENTED, AND ALSO SIGN THE CONTRACT AND PAY $85/HOUR FOR THE USE OF THE FIELD AT CEDARCREST OR $65/HOUR FOR USE OF THE FIELD AT HIGHCREST.  YOU MUST HAVE A DATE/TIME FOR THIS FIELD USE, AND MAY NOT JUST "SHOW UP" AT RANDOM.  

* NO CLEATS OF ANY KIND CAN BE USED ON THE FIELD, AND NO WATER ACTIVITIES ARE ALLOWED.
