Firewood: I've always told our guests, to use as much firewood as they like and we'll bring you more if you run out. After an experience with a guest recently, I no longer provide that service. When we went to do the post-check-out inspection, I thought wow...not a single piece of firewood ash or sign of any wood being used BUT it's all gone. The neighbors told me they saw them loading all the firewood into the trunk of their cars. That's not what it's for...it's to be used at the cottage. If they used that same logic, why not just take all the furniture as well!! So, we will provide you with the same amount we always do…which usually lasts our guests a week with plenty left over. If you run out there are places along the paved road that will sell you bundles of 4 pieces of firewood for $8.00. At that price, we're providing a few hundred dollars’ worth of firewood and I really don't care if you burn it all...I do care that someone would be so selfish as not to use it and then take it home. - 19.
