This cabin is uniquely off-grid, run strictly by solar power. While it has your basic needs, it does NOT have a refrigerator, oven, television or Internet.

A 4WD or AWD VEHICLE IS A MUST due to unpaved, steep mountain roads and the potential for high levels of snow in the spring and fall seasons. Roads leading to the cabin become very slippery and dangerous with extensive rains. If heavy rains occur during your stay, you may be required to remain in the cabin as long as the road conditions are dangerous. If heavy rains occur prior to your arrival, it could cause a delay with your check-in. Please note that there is a 10’ clearance height restriction at the entrance gate.

This home is not appropriate for people with mobility issues due to sloped, rocky walkways, uneven surfaces and stairs.


The loft is great for kids however due to the steep ladder access, this space is only suitable for children of at least 6 years of age.

It is very important to closely monitor your electricity consumption by turning off all lights when not in use. There is NO cell phone service but a signal can be obtained 3 miles down the road near the ranch entrance or the office.

PETS or ANIMALS of ANY KIND are NOT PERMITTED. The Bair Ranch is a working ranch where livestock and wild animals are abundant. There are large dogs roaming the grounds periodically herding the livestock. Bringing a domestic animal to the property could be dangerous to the livestock as well as the ranch dogs.

THIS IS A NON-SMOKING PROPERTY. The use of tobacco, cannabis, or vapor devices is strictly prohibited. Disregarding this Rule may result in a fine.

The Cabin does NOT have air conditioning although there are fans for your comfort. It stays fairly cool in the summer due to the higher elevation.

We had a wonderful two nights at the Caribou Cottage. It’s secluded and rustic, but also comfortable and clean. We also enjoyed some of the on-site activities (horseback ride and clays), and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a little break from the ordinary!I recommend bringing a couple of flashlights. The power is solar/battery, and it did run out on us a couple of times. Luckily we happened to bring some reading lights, so it wasn’t a big problem. (The heat is separate and worked well throughout.) Also, all-wheel or four-wheel drive is a smart idea here! The drive to the cabin is a (beautiful) 2-mile dirt road up the mountain.
