Rental Deposits and Damage Deposits

Spindletop Boomtown requires two deposits for use of its facilities:

  • A non-refundable rental deposit of 50% of the rental fee, including incidental fees, and a signed Facility Use Agreement are required within forty-eight hours of booking your event. The balance is due three days prior to your event. The deposit is credited to the final balance.
  • A $200.00 damage deposit is due at the time of booking to cover possible damages. Renters are liable for damages to museum property incurred during events. The damage deposit is refundable upon inspection of facilities after the event. If no damage is found, refunds are issued within one week of the event. If damage is found, no refund or a partial refund will be issued, depending on the severity of the damage.
