AITA for telling my dad he can't move into my cabin after he sold his house without asking me first

my dad (63m) got laid off in march and decided retirement was happening whether he was ready financially or not. he sold his house in town for cash, didnt tell me till after closing, and showed up on my porch with three totes and a cooler saying he figured hed just stay with me till he gets settled i live alone off grid, one bedroom, solar barely covers me and the well pump some days. no cell signal, propane run has to be planned two weeks out. i told him this cant be permanent, maybe a month tops while he figures out an apartment in town he got quiet then said he thought family meant something out here. been almost three weeks now. hes started rearranging my kitchen, complains about the outhouse walk at night, keeps asking when the internet gets fixed like ill conjure some. my brother thinks im heartless for not just making room, hes never lived a day without a landlord or wifi so easy for him to say last night dad said he sold his house because he trusted id take him in no questions asked. now hes not really talking to me, just sits by the stove staring at his phone with zero bars like its gonna save him am i the bad guy for wanting my space back
