Why direct costs less

The same cabin is listed higher on Airbnb — then Airbnb adds its fee

Our Airbnb listing carries a markup to cover Airbnb’s host commission, and Airbnb charges guests a service fee on top of that. Booking here you pay our base rate and nothing else. On a typical three-night stay that is roughly 20–25% less for exactly the same cabin, dates and hosts.
