Requests, quotes and replies
We read requests, ask lodgings about rooms and rates, write quotes and pass your yes or your changes on to the lodging. The catalog is fifteen stays that we know in detail, from a river town an hour and a half away, through lakeshore towns two to five hours north and west, to the far end of the Upper Peninsula.
Commission from the lodging
Each lodging pays the office a commission after a guest we sent has stayed. The traveler pays us nothing at any point: no planning fee and no fee to reserve. You pay the lodging for the room, directly.
Two addresses for two kinds of mail
Requests go to the desk address; anything about your personal details goes to the records address. Both are printed at the foot of every page, under the street address.
