Good thing the fishing was great lol.
I'd be furious but alas, you took the right route IMO
I've actually had the opposite happen. Found a lodge near ear falls(not a fly in)
The owner said it was decent cabins but the fishing was great. Price was waaaày low so I though for sure it was gonna be a crappy cabin
Turns out it had satellite t.v, a huge kitchen, slept 12 easily, had an awesome deck and was up on a hill over viewing the lake. Place was heaven on Earth
In winter I actually ended up living there for 5 months lol. $525 a month, he plowed the road daily. Made supper almost every night
Sleepy dog cabins, if your ever in the area, it's def. Worth a look at. The owner is awesome, cabins top notch (a few have hot tubs), and wine lake is not spectacular, but it's good.
