As did we all!!! How do you think we lost money- we'd been staying with them for years too. We are not happy their out of business- we paid our money and just wanted to stay in our cabins. I also sent business their way, because I loved the cabin! You check in and your on your own- it's not as if we got to know the Vicks by staying there often. I knew the office girls- maybe, but not the owners. We did have three cabins we loved over the years that we had reservations for that we had to change "because they left the rental program" but after this happened- I found them on other cabin companies sites. I never questioned it before, but for some reason they left Fontaines and went with another company. When that happened before, I use to think the owners retired and moved into them- I guess there was more to it. One thing I'm thankful for, was I also was not one of the people who showed up to a closed office with no where to go. The world can be very forgiving when asked. Remember how everyone said the best move for Hugh Grant was to go on tv and face the music- he had no backlash for that whole thing b/c he showed he was human. People who admit guilt have an easier time. Some people only see their little bubble and don't think they do any wrong, or affect anyone else. We may not ever know how- but what comes around goes around, I just hope when it comes around to them, they KNOW why and don't think- poor me what have I ever done? Don't overact anyone- I only wish them exactly what they've done- not aids or something evil- just money to be stolen, that should have been in an escrow account or something similar

We had stayed with Fontaine Cabins for much longer than four years, over 10. I'd been renting from Fontaines prior to the Vicks ownership. I've sent 4 people from my state to them and told countless others to stay with them. In fact I found out this happened because a co-worker went to reserve for the first time, upon my recommendation, with them and told me what the website stated. I live in Michigan and do not own a cabin there, much less a cabin company. For the past years we stayed in Heart's Delight- wish I owned that cabin! And others prior to that one. Perhaps you think I'm not serious in my offer to send you all of my paperwork- I am. You don't want to know the truth do you? So all of us who lost money are not "good people"~ only those who hold my $2,700 are good people. I guess you know me and somehow feel I must had had this coming to me. How is it possible that you feel renting from them for four years has given you insight to their moral compas*? They never returned a telephone call or email- or responded to my lawyer-no matter what is happening how is that o.k.? And your going to boycott the cabin companies that GAVE my family a place to stay when we would not have been able to go on vacation. Well, you better boycott all cabin companies then- because I can as*ure you that almost everyone of them offered us a free cabin. Including the ones you most likely stay with. I just accepted the first two offers that came that fit our needs. Mr. Voit (editor of the Mt. Press) and myself both received many, many offers after the newspaper article ran. Why do you only wish best of luck to the Vicks? I was a loyal customer for years, gave them new business and a telephone call would have been nice. You either did not have a reservation for this time and did not lose money or you have a personal relationship where he refunded your money to you and your so grateful to him for choosing you out of hundreds of us you defend his actions toward others. It really does not matter why they closed, a telephone call is not a high expectation- in fact if I had not sent my friend to their website- I would have been one of the ones who showed up to a note on the door. We had our reservation and would have never checked the site, because of having been there so many times before- we could drive there with our eyes closed. Your statement:"I do know that usually it is the good people that get crucified" ~ don't feel bad for him, he's gotten away with it. He gets to keep our money, just as you wish for him~ Thanks. Offer still stands if you want to leave your telephone number of address. Of course you may not want to take your head out of the sand long enough to read the court docu*ents and letters... but will send if you change your mind. Is it so crazy to believe that maybe a business owner did do something wrong- if you truly believe I'm making all of this up- then let me send the paperwork to you.
