That’s a bit expensive for what you get really.

We have noticed in the States that camp sites and cabins have become increasingly more expensive as they become more popular choices for vacation options. You now have to reserve a campsite in most parks and forests and the cabins are ridiculously expensive, bordering on the cost of a fine upscale hotel room. I think the glamping option looks great!

Oh wow – that was one expensive camping cabin! But at least they were clean and had the necessities! Sorry that y’all could get one of the glamping tents at Angler’s Rest – they look like so much fun! xx

Now I have new terminology! Glamping! Love it! I’m sorry that it wasn’t a very good value! It did look clean! I’m glad you got a night away from school though!

I can easily understand your frustration with the high costs for such a spartan cabin. I hope you had a good time, nonetheless. I also hope your nursing studies are going well. Once you’ve completed your educational goals you’ll be ready for another get-away more in keeping with the style you enjoy! 🙂

The south coast particularly Nowra does seem to be very difficult to find accommodation. Thats a big disappointment for you Charlie.

WOW!!!!
275 bucks!!! I thought WA was expensive!!!! And I agree, although functional it doesn’t look beautiful or inviting!

We visit Albany about 4-5 times a year and always stay in the same motel, the rooms are clean, the showers are hot and the pillows are super comfortable! I wouldn’t say it was stylish, but it is perfectly nice. And the biggest plus point is it has an indoor heated pool and spa!!! It is the only place we ever stay, although there are quainter places and posher places, it represents great value for money. I took the boys down over the school holidays and for 2 nights it cost me $230 for the 3 of us for both nights. Which I thought was pretty reasonable, especially given how relaxing it was. After 3-4 hours in the pool and some time on the beach, a take away (no washing up!!!). They were both asleep by 7pm….nice quiet night for me 🙂

I struggle so much with how much places charge! I know it is a transient business and you aren’t guaranteed an income 365 days a year. But I wonder if it was less would more people stay?

It is my life long dream to have cabins. Each set secluded enough that you feel like you are alone, with large beds, beautiful decor, deep spas on the verandas and open fires for winter. Add the option to have a hot meal waiting, or a perfectly packed picnic hamper. One day I will make it happen….just need to keep writing and plodding on and finding a way to fund it!

Lotto win???? Yes please 😉

Wow, that does seem expensive! Too bad you weren’t able to get a glamping tent. Looks so cute!

Yep…275 does seem a little steep for those accommodations. But hey…you never know until you try it. At least you had a couple of days away from the books. 🙂

Holy Moly! That is ridiculous, what a huge expense for that pretty ordinary cabin. Actually would have been pretty miffed about that, especially as time and getting away for mini vacays can be difficult to organise. Least it was clean I guess?!
I would MUCH prefer the glamping option, still havent done it actually. Might make it a thing when the weather warms up. Hope your study is going well and that you are all happy and healthy. xo
