When it rains, it. . .

Yep, you all get the picture. . . We are now back in the teeth of the full season here at the hotel. This means, that the next probable opening will be in late August or early September of 2014, if the pattern of the past five years holds true.

This year has been interesting, to say the least. When all was said and done (and we counted the vacant nights) the hotel was at 95 percent occupancy. That is six tree houses, multiplied by 365, and the smart followers can figure that out. That includes 42 nights empty when we closed down each tree house for seven nights to strip, sand and re-varnish them.

Our next opening isn't until the middle of January, and we actually have reservation through January, 2015, though we aren't completely full for most of those months.

We have had folks from Australia, Denmark, Abu Dabi (sp?), India, U.S., Canada, England, Italy, China, France, Belgium, Sweden, etc., and there are more.

Fortunately, we have had the good luck to have great folks for the most part, with very few grumps.
