George,
I'm not sure about the life support, I've enjoyed staying in the A-frames for many years, and honestly, if it wasn't for having to worry about having a spot to park my boat at the dock, I might still be there.
Just not sure how a resort can accomodate renters bringing 2 & 3 boats per cabin up, and have enough room for everyone. Of course, the time that the Lodge had a huge group, with 13 boats, REALLY screwed things up.
Call me selfish, but when my cottage has brought 1 boat up, I expect to have a place to dock it.
