The overall stay was good, I just really thought it was unprofessional for a host to not respond to an upcoming guest for over 24hrs a day prior to checking in. We had an unexpected Covid exposure and our party didn't want to go through with plans so I sent a message to James asking if anything could be done or arranged. Even if he decided not to accommodate us the way we were hoping, I would have still liked a response. But he only responded to me after a full day when I messaged him a second time to say half of our party would attend because we assumed we wouldn't get a refund or opportunity to reschedule. He responded then saying,
"Ok what you have covid
So you will not be there"
He never addressed my original question and just said that we'd enjoy the place. That communication was the only thing I would say negatively impacted our experience with James and his property.
