The guests that led me to imposing this rule spent no time with me over 2 nights and 2 ski days, even in the evening.
Well that’s pretty odd for sure.
How about driveways in snow and guests getting stuck? Anyone have guests blame you?
Fortunately, we’ve never had a guest expect us to get them out, or get all mad at their predicament.
We used to have this issue with one side a ditch, and the driveway having a slight curve plus it’s a hill. It’s very deceptive and if you back out, you’ll likely end up in the ditch. Everyone was warned. They all think since they made it up the long hill for the street, they’ve got it.
One time at night during a snowstorm, some random mini van showed up, google had brought them there. “No, really, we’re not staying in your rental, it’s probably down the street.”
So he backed out, and of course got stuck. Since there were kids involved, I drove them to the house down the street, then brought dad back to wait for the tow truck. It’s not a long driveway. The tough part is maybe 20 yards.
I think that was the start of the 4 tow weekend. One guest got stuck twice, once on the way in, despite having been there before. She managed ok for the weekend until leaving. Just upon exiting and turning, she was distracted by eating her bagel and drove off the road across the street getting stuck. That was a first. At least she laughed about it.
