OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
★ All Wheel Drive (AWD / 4x4) could be required to reach the cabin in snow/ice and will be required to use the driveway in snow/ice (possible in Oct-May).
- The driveway is paved, has a steep slope toward the cabin, and can accommodate 6 vehicles (when double parked). If you cannot manage the driveway in snow or ice there is space to park on the street but please be mindful of the slippery walk down.
★The fireplaces are gas and have pilot lights which blow out occasionally. We will provide a detailed video on lighting it, if you're not comfortable or are unable to relight it a $45 site visit fee will be charged by our handyman if you request assistance operating it (more if after-hours visit is required). DO NOT BURN ANYTHING in the fireplace to include wood, paper, or kindling. There is NO CHIMNEY.
▻STARTER kit includes toilet paper, paper towels, hand/body/hair/dish soap, laundry & dishwasher tabs, and garbage bags.
▻Guest To Bring: charcoal, bring zip locks, foil, coffee & filters, sweetener/creamer, tea, etc., or purchase locally. We have a ninja coffee maker that takes the cone type filters. People usually leave them behind though so you might not need them! We do not have a Keurig.
▻There are BUGS in the mountains and you might find some unwelcome guests. We have regular pest control so it makes sense you might find critters that didn’t make it.
▻The cabin is on a mountain well. The well pump needs power, if an outage occurs, water will stop flowing after the tank runs out, this happens rarely but is important to note.
▻The cabin is on a septic system, ONLY toilet paper can be flushed.
★Cell service in the cabin, mountains, and local area can be spotty/weak.
★Download the local maps before arriving so that you do not get lost. Turning on wifi calling in your mobile phone settings helps.
