Little Bear Cabin Baraga, Michigan BAT cabin
|
|
|
The cabin itself was fine, in fact charming, the shoreline extensive and clean. As mentioned, the accommodations itself were fine, other than it sits very close to the highway. Opening windows results in only traffic noise, not lake noise, as I’d hoped. The rest of stay I shall detail here. We were scheduled to stay 2 nights. In the middle of the night on the first night of our stay, there was a BAT in the cabin. Thankfully, there is a set of French doors that separates the bedroom from the living area, so the BAT was kept at bay from the bed. Call me squeamish, but I’m not staying in a cabin with a BAT for 2 nights, 1 night was bad enough. We packed up and I called the property owner. I told her there was a BAT, we were leaving 1 night early because of the BAT, and would she agree to a 1 night refund, to which she said yes, she’d agree. I didn’t ask for more than the 1 night’s compensation, only for the night we didn’t stay. After several weeks, and no refund, I began to e-mail her, requesting the refund information. To which, she replied with a letter to my home, and a gift certificate to another night’s stay at the BAT cabin or any of the other properties she had in the area (we live 7 hrs away). The letter detailed how she had spoken to her lawyer and, since the BAT is an act of nature, she was not responsible for a refund. In addition, she concluded that, and I quote……”the bat came in with you and left when you did”. I must state that both arriving and departing happened in broad daylight, we would have noticed a BAT following us in and out. At any rate, that statement is preposterous. So after verbally agreeing to a refund, she recanted. I would not recommend this property due to the BAT, the proximity to the highway and the integrity of the owner.
