AS WITH ANY NATURAL WATER BODY, YOU SHOULD USE CAUTION & USE COMMON SENSE WHILE ENTERING & ENJOYING THE WATER. DIVING AND JUMPING ARE DISCOURAGED DUE TO THE VARYING DEPTH OF THE WATER AND LACK OF WATER CLARITY.

(b) RENTING A CABANA, GLAMPING CABINS, CABINS, USING WATERCRAFT & SHUTTLING SERVICE  AND  BEING A GUEST AT SON'S GUADALUPE IS AN INHERENTLY DANGEROUS ACTIVITY AND CAN RESULT IN LOSS OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, PERMANENT DISABILITY OR DEATH. Contact and guests assume all such risks. Contact & each guest should be aware of his/her surroundings at all times. CONTACT AND EACH GUEST IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY AND THOSE MINORS IN THEIR GROUP while at Son's Guadalupe, in the water on and adjoining Son's Guadalupe and while engaging in Recreational Activities in and out of the water.

THE RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES ARE INHERENTLY DANGEROUS ACTIVITIES THAT MAY RESULT IN LOSS OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, PERMANENT DISABILITY OR DEATH.

(d) In addition to any other risk set forth in this Agreement, the risks associated with visiting Son's Guadalupe and engaging in the Recreational Activities include, but are not limited to, the following: sudden changes in weather conditions; flooding; lightning; insects, snakes and wildlife; fire; entering, exiting, overturned and operating watercrafts; dangerous water conditions; murky water and inability to assess depth of water; entrapment or entanglement by or in natural or artificial conditions such as root-wads, log-jams, bridges, abutments, and waterfalls; water which is deep in some places, shallow in other places, cold, fast, subject to rapid change and flooding; objects and hazards in the water; hazards resulting from the presence and operation of vehicles on Son's Guadalupe; less than sanitary conditions; hazards resulting from the consumption of alcohol near water or while engaging in the Recreational Activities; uneven terrain in and next to the water; murky water and inability to see the bottom; trees in and around the water; falling tree limbs; hypothermia; injury from slips and falls; excessive exertion from strenuous activity; loss, theft or damage to personal property; and serious bodily injury, permanent disability or death.

(e) Company has made no effort to determine, and accepts no responsibility for, medical, physical or other qualifications or the suitability of any guest for the Recreational Activities. Each guest must assess their own suitability for the Recreational Activities and recognize their own limitations.

By visiting any Son's GETAWAYS property, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19.
