Many other cabins in Arnold advertise a loft or game room as a bedroom. They lack heat/cool & don’t have smoke/CO alarms. They also lack privacy (no doors) making it difficult for multiple families on a vacation.
However, our cabin has 5 full bedrooms without any of the issues mentioned above. We have a separate game room too.
