My husband and I, along with our Boston terrier mix, Maggie, were so looking forward to our fall getaway at this log home. Five minutes into our tour of the house by Marianne, the owner, we heard a horrible sound. Maggie had fallen down 13 steps to the basement level due to a very dangerous open doorway with no gate or barrier to prevent her fall. This is clearly a safety issue that should have been addressed long ago because anyone could fall down the steps by simply backing up or losing one's balance. Maggie was clearly injured & we had to take her to a small animal hospital half an hour away. Although we were both very upset, Marianne continued giving me a tour of the inside & outside of the property instead of waiting until a later time. At that point we just wanted to have our pup treated for her injured back leg. Once Maggie was given an exam, X-rays, & bloodwork, we wanted to take her home the next morning so she could be in a safe space. One would think Marianne would have offered to pay something towards our vet bill since it was due to negligence by having an open doorway to the basement, but she did not. We were partially refunded the two remaining nights we had paid for, but our pup has to be kept immobile and on pain medication for two weeks. If you are going to take your pet or young child to this home, please be aware of this danger!
