I called today to check and see how many it could sleep, I was told comfortably 6. I asked if there was a limit and he told me no but they don't want it to get to carried away. From the looks of the pictures there are 2 bedrooms and the living room couch pulls out. There looks to be plenty of space to toss sleeping bags on the floor. Most importantly, there is heat, hot water and a shower. All of which I am sure we are going to want in January.

I would likely just come Friday night and wheel Saturday. Doubt AI can get away both days of the weekend.

The cottage is reserved and paid for. Four couples with three beds, should make for a cozy weekend!

Yea, I know Kyle was staying Friday, he and I are the fourth couple! I have to have someone to cuddle with after all!

Seriously though, I think my wife is finally going to make it, pretty excited!

Matt, there is always room for you.
