 Fourpeaks Rental Terms |
"Very unhappy with the degree of hospitality we received." | The great majority of guests are thrilled to be here and don't mind if I'm an oddball. Do they think a normal person would live here year round--with just mountains, trees and nature? |
 Safety First! |
"The process of making the reservation was problematic." | They're used to booking hotels that do it in a minute with a credit card and a confirmation number. We're sorry about that and if we were renting cabins by the side of the road, we'd do the same. |
 What do YOU value in a getaway vacation? |
"Your prices are upscale. Why is that?" | Some folks experience the wilderness with just a sleeping bag and a tent--costs nothing. Others travel to exotic places--big bucks. Our backcountry camps cost in-between. About the same as a good hotel room in a mid-size town. |
 Prices: Fourpeaks Backcountry Camps. |
"Less expensive then staying at a Hotel?" | More about how expensive Fourpeaks is. Didn't understand that our listed rates are for single/double occupancy. We limit occupancy and charge for extra people and dogs. (You can't just squeeze in all the folks you want.) |
 Planning a Vacation Get-Togther? |
"I called your establishment to inquire about about lodging for 4 couples . . ." | Fourpeaks camps are designed really for just one couple or family. A place for a personal nature retreat. Sometimes two couples will fit OK, but it's better if they just rent another camp. |
 Reduced Rate Plans for Returning Guests. |
"I did notice a 200 point deduction for 'complaining about the firewood.'" | Some folks try to count their Fourpeaks Frequent Flyer points on their own. I don't do the math. I leave it up to my staff of experienced Adirondack guides and their (scientifically proven) algorithm. |
 Adirondack Poetry at Fourpeaks. |
"The location is gorgeous . . . yet your poetry had a strong negative current throughout every page." | I don't understand aggressively happy people. My Zen (a study of realtime cause and effect in minute detail) exposes the chanci-ness of experience. Feel happy about it? Sad? Not really. (Still, some guests do find me a bit grumpy.) |
   Seven Secluded Cabins. |
"One of your guests mentioned that the Cabin and New camp are quite close to the office, cars in and out, ect and that's not really for us." | To aid prospective visitors make the optimum choice, we've devised the Seclusion Index #0-10 to help them decide which place is right for them. |
 Thoreau House. |
"I didn't like the absolute whole wilderness like the no bathroom and how we would shower and bathe . . . anything with electric and running water inside? " | Real Adirondacks Wilderness with not so much wilderness in it as all that. |
 Safety First! |
"Is it dangerous to operate the wood stove . . ." | If you have a lot of scary questions about personal safety in connection with heating with wood, suggest you tell us and we'll rent you a place where a wood fire is not necessary. |

Whether you're an experienced webmaster or just a novice surfer, you may have feedback or suggestions to help us improve. We well remember the visitor a year or so ago who complained about the unpleasant glare from the HTML default royal blue links. That lead us to entirely revamp our background and link colors, making them softer, more eye pleasing. And the Florida expert who warned us about frustrating visitors with blind links. We followed his advice and now carefully identify each link so visitors know before they "click" exactly where they're clicking to.
