StayFoxhole Terms of Service

Foxhole Terms of Service

Effective May 30, 2025

By using Foxhole, you agree to the following Terms of Service. These terms govern your access to and use of the Foxhole platform, including all services provided to both Hosts and Guests.


1. Eligibility

Foxhole is a verified platform built for the military community. Only verified members of the U.S. military — including Active Duty, Veterans, National Guard, Reservists, and Dependents — are eligible to book stays as Guests. All Guests must complete a military verification process through VerifyPass before making a reservation.

Civilians may host on Foxhole and list properties for verified military members to book; however, they are not permitted to book stays themselves. All civilian hosts must submit a Host Application, undergo a screening process by the Foxhole team, and receive formal approval before their listing can go live.

Civilians may host on Foxhole and list properties for verified military members to book, but civilian users are not eligible to create Guest accounts or make reservations.


2. Platform Overview

Foxhole connects verified military Guests with trusted Hosts offering short- and long-term housing near U.S. military bases. Foxhole is not a property management company and does not own or operate any listings.


3. Booking and Payment

All payments for bookings must be processed through the Foxhole platform via Stripe. Guests are responsible for paying any agreed-upon fees, and Hosts are responsible for providing the listed accommodations.


4. Fees

  • Short-Term Bookings (<28 days): Foxhole collects a 10% platform fee from the total booking cost.

  • Long-Term Bookings (28+ days): Foxhole collects a one-time 15% Finder’s Fee based on the first month’s rent.

Foxhole covers Stripe processing fees for both Guests and Hosts.


5. Cancellations and Refunds

5.1 Guest Cancellation Policy

Guests must review and adhere to the Host’s stated cancellation policy, which is displayed on each listing at the time of booking. Refunds, if any, are determined by the Host’s policy and not by Foxhole. Guests who cancel after the cancellation window may forfeit part or all of their payment. Frequent or last-minute cancellations without valid justification may result in account review or suspension.

5.2 Host Cancellation Policy

Hosts are expected to honor every accepted booking. Cancellations by a Host damage trust and reliability across the platform. If a Host cancels a confirmed booking without extraordinary cause (e.g., natural disaster, personal emergency), Foxhole reserves the right to:

  • Decrease listing visibility

  • Temporarily suspend or permanently remove the Host’s account

  • Withhold future guest requests or disable payouts

Hosts who cancel more than once within a 6-month period may be permanently removed from the platform. Last-minute cancellations (within 72 hours of check-in) are subject to strict review and may result in immediate delisting.


6. User Conduct

Users agree to act respectfully and professionally when using the platform. Foxhole reserves the right to remove any user who engages in harassment, discrimination, abuse, or behavior inconsistent with our community values.


7. Host Responsibilities

Hosts must:

  • Maintain accurate listings

  • Ensure the property is clean, safe, and available as advertised

  • Respond to booking requests in a timely manner

  • Fulfill the terms of any accepted booking


8. Guest Responsibilities

Guests must:

  • Be respectful of host property and policies

  • Pay all booking-related fees through the Foxhole platform

  • Follow community standards and rules outlined by the Host


9. Liability

Foxhole is not responsible for any damage, loss, injury, or dispute arising from the use of a listed property. Hosts and Guests are responsible for resolving any issues that occur during a stay.


10. Off-Platform Booking Prohibition (Hosts)

By listing a property on Foxhole, all Hosts agree to exclusively process:

  • All short-term stays (under 28 days), and

  • The first month’s payment for any long-term stay (28+ days)

through the Foxhole platform.

Any attempt to take a booking off-platform — including sharing personal contact information to circumvent Foxhole’s system — is a direct violation of these Terms.

Foxhole reserves the right to:

  • Permanently ban any Host who violates this policy

  • Remove listings or suppress visibility

  • Withhold access to leads or Guest requests if misuse is suspected

This policy exists to protect both Hosts and Guests and to maintain the integrity of our trusted, verified military-only community.


11. Termination

Foxhole reserves the right to suspend or permanently remove any user who:

  • Attempts to take bookings or payments off-platform

  • Engages in fraud, deception, or misrepresentation

  • Damages property or violates the terms of a stay

  • Repeatedly cancels bookings without valid cause

  • Disrespects or harasses Hosts, Guests, or Foxhole staff

If the user is Active Duty military, Foxhole reserves the right to notify their Chain of Command for behavior inconsistent with military conduct expectations.

Examples of unacceptable behavior include, but are not limited to:

  • Destroying or stealing property

  • Leaving excessive mess or damage

  • Ignoring checkout or house rules

  • Using threatening, abusive, or discriminatory language

  • Booking under false identity or for another person without approval

Foxhole upholds the military standard. We expect professionalism, respect, and integrity in every interaction on our platform.


12. Account Integrity, Security, and Fraud Prevention

To preserve trust and protect all users, Foxhole enforces the following:

  • One Account Per User: Users may only maintain one account. Duplicate or deceptive accounts will be removed.

  • Verification is Required: All users must complete identity verification through VeridyPass. Fraudulent verification attempts will result in removal.

  • Account Sharing is Prohibited: You may not allow others to access or use your account.

  • Security is Your Responsibility: You are responsible for protecting your login credentials. Report unauthorized activity immediately.

  • No Scams, Impersonation, or Platform Abuse: Use of bots, impersonation, or fraudulent behavior is prohibited. Foxhole actively monitors for suspicious activity and reserves the right to take immediate enforcement action.


13. Code of Conduct

Foxhole was built by and for the military. As such, all users are held to a standard of behavior that reflects military values. By using this platform, you agree to the following:

13.1 Respect and Professionalism

  • Treat all Guests, Hosts, and Foxhole staff with courtesy and professionalism.

  • Honor all booking terms and platform obligations.

  • Harassment, discrimination, or abusive behavior is strictly prohibited.

13.2 Integrity and Accountability

  • Use your real identity and be honest in all communications.

  • Do not mislead, misrepresent, or manipulate platform systems.

13.3 Property and Rule Compliance

  • Guests must respect all property rules, privacy, and house expectations.

  • Hosts must provide safe, accurately listed spaces.

  • Any illegal or unauthorized activity is grounds for immediate removal.

13.4 Military Bearing

  • Foxhole expects behavior aligned with military professionalism.

  • Serious misconduct by Active Duty users may result in Chain of Command notification.

  • This includes UCMJ violations, gross disrespect, or damaging the platform’s integrity.

13.5 Enforcement

Violations of the Code of Conduct may result in:

  • Suspension or permanent account removal

  • Payment or listing restrictions

  • Reporting to appropriate military or legal authorities

Foxhole is not just a platform — it’s a standard.
