nice little cabin but cold
We booked 3 nights stays after the holiday to recharge and rest. The cabin was easy to find and the location was ok. The cabin sits on a road and it was busier than expected.That particular weekend it was unusually cold and the cabin is not winterized. Despite having the heater at 68 wind was coming directly from the windows . We were not able to sit in the little dining area because it was too cold. There was an extra heater that we used in the bedroom. We had to keep the curtains closed in order to keep the draft coming from windows at bay. We did not make a big deal out of it until we lost power and it became too cold. We packed and were ready to leave when the power crew arrived and fixed the power line. We went back to the Cabin but the heater froze. We communicated with the owner every step of the way. The next morning we were able to get it to work but it would not go higher than 65 F .During the day it was "bearable" with our boots on and a jacket on but once the sun went down we made the decision to go home . because it was too cold. We did not have a great stay. The host does not control the weather and he was super nice but there was only 1 small alternative for heat , only one spare blanket , no candles or flashlight to use during the power outage. I am originally from Canada and I am no stranger to the cold but that 2 days was brutal and unpleasant. I wish there was more disclosure about the fact that the heating system is not reliable and there is no backup .
