We had one come all the way from our front wall and lodged sticking out the back wall of the house on Christmas eve 1961.

The area receives over 1MM visitors per year, and new amenities are continually added, however there is a lack of quality lodging.  

To me this is classic renters thoughts somehow when people rent they lose all problem solving abilities with lodging. 

Backstory: For the past 5 summers, my dad and I have been going on fishing trips in Alaska and the past 2 we have had the opportunity to stay at this incredible lodge in Thorne Bay. 

Might as well lodge a complaint with them and they might give you some other resources too.As a landlord, which technically this owner is, he has responsibility to maintain the property and utilities.

One of them mentioned that I should get a business license since what I have here is a hostel/boarding/lodging operation (and insurance premiums would be 10x a typical landlord policy if I were to rent it out to a family instead). 

ThanksDrew The Lodge has that information, at least for properties associated with the resort.

Notice what types of lodging is available, what features it has, the quality, price, and look at their calendars to see how booked up these properties are. 

Our job is to provide immediate assistance E.g. blankets, money for clothing, food, lodging and longer term counseling for getting their lives back in order. 

Ski lodge kind of thing or ?
