The game room is not open to the main level below except at the staircase giving it a very private feeling and also keeping some of the game noise upstairs. There is a private bedroom with a king size bed. The game room also contains a bunk bed with two queen size beds, a full bathroom with entrances from both the bedroom and the game room, and another porch with loungers perfect for star-gazing completes the game room space.
**Guest Access**
You will have access to the entire cabin to enjoy during your stay, including the private heated indoor pool. The route from Wear’s Valley Rd offers the most manageable path for any type of vehicle. Take care at night and in rain or snow as the roads can be slippery and lighting before entering the neighborhood is minimal. Parking for two or three cars is available directly in front of the cabin. Be sure to keep your car doors closed and locked as you never know when a curious bear may be visiting the area. The door codes for the main door and the pool room as well as other helpful information will be shared with you on your check-in day.
