The cabin is accessible year round, but the last couple miles are via dirt roads that are well maintained by the county and plowed after snow. Please make sure you are travelling in an appropriate vehicle, especially in the winter. AWD/4WD is highly encouraged. There is plenty of parking and we can also accommodate an RV on the property.
PET FRIENDLY: This is a pet-friendly listing for up to two pets. There is an additional $75 fee for bringing a pet to cover the cleaner's time. All dogs must remain leashed - our neighbors have chickens and goats! Please be sure to clean up after your pet outside and try your best to not allow them on furniture.
There are two exterior cameras. One on the garage facing down the driveway and another on the left side of the home. This is for your safety and protection of the property. There are absolutely no cameras inside the cabin.
