Last Updated: 12/17/2025
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using iShackShare.com (the “Site”), you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (the “Terms”) and any additional rules, policies, or guidelines posted on the Site. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Site.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and ShackShare LLC (“ShackShare,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
2. Description of the Platform
iShackShare.com is an online marketplace that enables individuals (“Hosts”) to list ice shacks or similar recreational accommodations for short-term rental, and enables other individuals (“Guests” or “Renters”) to browse, book, and rent such listings.
ShackShare provides a technology platform only and is not a party to any rental agreement or other contractual relationship between Hosts and Guests. Any rental agreement is entered into directly between the Host and the Guest.
3. Eligibility and User Representations
You represent and warrant that:
- You are at least eighteen (18) years of age;
- You have the legal authority to enter into these Terms;
- Your use of the Site will comply with all applicable federal, state, county, municipal, and local laws, regulations, ordinances, and rules.
4. Host Responsibilities, Regulatory Compliance, and Taxes
Hosts acknowledge and agree that they act as independent providers of rental accommodations and are solely responsible for ensuring that their listings, rental properties, and rental activities comply with all applicable federal, state, county, municipal, tribal, and local laws, regulations, ordinances, codes, and rules, whether now in effect or later enacted.
Without limitation, Hosts are solely responsible for compliance with all requirements relating to:
- Zoning, land use, and occupancy laws;
- Licensing, registration, and permit requirements;
- Health, safety, and equipment standards;
- Insurance requirements;
- Accessibility requirements, if applicable; and
- Consumer protection and disclosure obligations.
Tax Responsibility. Hosts expressly acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for determining, collecting, reporting, and remitting any and all taxes, fees, assessments, or charges arising from or related to their rental activities, including but not limited to excise taxes, leisure taxes, hospitality taxes, resort taxes, tourism taxes, occupancy taxes, lodging taxes, local option taxes, or similar taxes, whether imposed by any governmental or quasi‑governmental authority.
ShackShare LLC may, where required by law and in its sole discretion, collect and remit standard sales tax on certain transactions. Any such collection or remittance by ShackShare does not relieve Hosts of responsibility for any other tax obligations, nor does it constitute tax advice, a determination of tax applicability, or an assumption of liability by ShackShare.
Hosts acknowledge that tax laws and obligations vary by jurisdiction and change frequently. ShackShare makes no representations or warranties regarding tax compliance, and Hosts agree that they have not relied upon ShackShare for tax, legal, or accounting advice.
Hosts agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ShackShare from any claims, audits, penalties, fines, interest, or liabilities arising from a Host’s failure to comply with any legal or tax obligation.
