I posted this same question on my personal page, and since we have some past guests following us here, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask those that are very familiar with Trillium Mountain.
We met with our co-hosts from Smoky Mountain Vacation Cabins, this past week for a yearly account review and discussed potential improvements.
As you know, the lower-level rec room at our cabin currently has a queen sleeper sofa, walk-out covered porch, and a full bathroom with a large tiled shower that was added in January.
It’s a multi-purpose space, but at bedtime it essentially becomes a large private master suite, except for the sleeper sofa. We’re now thinking about replacing or supplementing the queen sleeper sofa with a queen Murphy bed with a quality mattress. We wouldn’t be adding any sleeping capacity, just replacing the existing sleeping option with something we think would be more comfortable. The sleeper sofa works, especially for kids, but I think a Murphy bed with a good mattress would be more appealing and comfortable for adult couples. And when it’s folded up, we’d still have the full rec room space.
My thought process is that If someone were looking for a cabin for four couples, a queen Murphy bed with a quality mattress would be more appealing than a queen sleeper sofa,
I’d like to hear any pros or cons in the comments that we might not be thinking about.
