[quote=Anonymous]I have a family cabin that is super rustic (like go outside to use outhouse, lanterns after dark rustic). My DH is not an outdoor guy, and I knew that when I married him. So he is as good a sport as he can manage and comes most years for a few days and I stay for a couple weeks with our son. I don’t pressure him to stay or make him feel badly for not being outdoorsy, and he doesn’t make me feel badly for loving the place. It look us a few years to get to that balance. For folks saying modernize the cabin…if it is a family place it may not be in their control. Our place is owned with extended family, and the rusticness is the point. Folks would agree to remediate mold but probably not to add curtains or doors where they hadn’t been before. Everything is a negotiation between rusticness/tradition and comfort.[/quote]
