7/1/24 Response to Owner:
I appreciate your response. The only goal of my review was to inform the Google / Yelp communities that you apparently are not currently in the business of offering lodging to tourists. That’s a shame. While I have stayed in Weaverville several times, I called you first for this trip, as your location and proximity to the river was very appealing, and your reviews on both Google and Yelp were quite good and better than most of the properties in Weaverville.
As I have not visited your property, I probably should have tempered my “NOT recommended” notation. That is in-fact “hearsay” based on the comments of a third party and should not be admissible. I apologize.
I have absolutely no problem with your business decision to help your community’s locals instead of random tourists. Having permanent and full-time occupancy certainly sounds like a much easier business model. However, if in fact you do not currently have lodging available for tourists, it would be most helpful if you could notify Google / Yelp that you are “temporarily closed”. I did notice that the website link offered on both services does not work. I guess that might have been a clue. For the record, I will note as sad commentary that very many communities now suffer the Air BnB effect, whereby tourists live in the homes and locals live in the motels. There ought to be a law…
I commenced making reservations for my trip on June 3. As the Weaverville area is the first night of my vacation, I attempted to make those reservations first, and do believe that I called on that day. I know absolutely that I called on June 4, which would have been a follow-up call. It was only on June 28 that I realized I still had no reservations for my first night, that my calls had not been returned, and called again. Upon receiving the same OGM, I reached out to another business to inquire if you were even open, learned of your status, and posted the review to alert other users. So, 30 minutes in your view, but 3 and a half weeks in mine. I cannot explain the “disconnect”.
I am still not clear as to whether you currently have any rooms to offer the public. Whether you do or not, it would be helpful for you to clarify your current situation. Thank you.
