Bens Cabin
Stole my money
I was asked to send a check for $350 to hold a cabin for the weekend for my wife and my honeymoon. I did so and then Ben called me 2 days prior to say that he made a mistake and double booked me and that we could stay upstairs in some small loft.
I told him that I didn't want to do that and to cancel my reservation and send me my $350 back.
That was in August 2012 and October 17th 2012 I have still yet to receive the check. He has promised me multiple times that he would send the money back.
Ben's Cabin on Madeline Island Stole My Money
Buyer beware - Rent Madeline Island Lodging (AKA Ben's Cabin) at your own risk. Ben Ryder and his Father Jim Ryder scammed my wife and I out of $525 for lodging that was scheduled FOR OUR HONEYMOON.
I found his site through the Madeline Island Chamber of Commerce site. When I called he informed me I would receive a discount if I sent a check prior to checking in. He cashed it and did not give us a place to stay. We had to fork out another $695 last minute.
The police said he has also done this to 4 others in the past few months and another after us.
Do not send this crook money.

cuz money ben spent
As of today 11/01/2012 I have not received any of my money back.
Have you received your money back yet? He took my money too, but I've since then gotten it back. Let me know, I'm writing a follow up to the situation for a blog post and would like to know if anybody is still out money.
