And I will repeat Jody, that the information that I passed along was also told to me by John... not by the guests...
Regarding insurance, gear is generally covered under home policies, and when that is the only insurance in place, then the payment is subject to the deductibles associated with that policy but the amount (full vs depreciated cost) is likely to be whatever you contract the insurer to do and the premium you pay.
In my case, because my gear normally lives at my second home in Tobermory, it isn't really covered too well under my home insurance. As a result, I have it on a floater policy... with a premium of $2/$100 coverage, but there is no deductible and it's covered at replacement cost. Same deal with my camera insurance.
Needless to say, this is a discussion to have with your insurance broker.
