OTHER THINGS TO NOTE -
PETS: Are only welcome if we discuss them in advance of booking your trip for our approval. We only allow Dogs. We need to know their BREED, WEIGHT (we allow typically under 50 pounds of total pet weight, but ask us if larger), AGE (No puppies) and the PET COUNT (generally we allow 1, but if they are very small maybe two). We have a PET FEE between $10/night and $35/night depending how big the pet is. We require agreement to use a PET CRATE if you ever leave them in the house. Pets are not allowed on or in beds or on furniture. We don't allow any pets when the cabin is at maximum human person count.
THE CABIN IS IN THE MOUNTAINS: The driving approach to the cabin requires that you are comfortable driving up and down small gravel roads in the woods. Our cabin is on a county maintained gravel road that is fine for all cars Spring, Summer and Fall. During winter please come prepared for driving potentially on snowy roads and be certain you can take care of yourselves and car (snowchains, or AWD, or 4x4 are the best options). In the event of a winter storm during your stay we will instruct you on where your vehicles will be placed for your safety, this may involve a short walk from that location to the cabin door. We’ve had thousands of guests
GUEST COUNT: We only permit the guest staying at the cabin on the cabin grounds or in the cabin. You can not change or add guests without notifying us for approval. We reserve the right to not approve an increasing guest count prior to the trip, and we reserve the right to stop your trip if your guest count increases without asking our permission first. We will ask you to confirm your guest count at the time of booking.
PROVIDED : Linens, Towels, fully stocked Kitchen (see photo), coffee and amenities, a bottle of wine and chocolate samples, propane for grill and all that you see pictured. We do not provide other food of any type.
WIFI - Your internet is Satellite based. That means it has a delay and is NOT ideal for 2 way or streaming communication such ZOOM or Netflix. During a storm the weather can cloud out the connection and your WiFi may degrade. We have had guests work just fine keeping up with email for example, but we point this out as there are no buried cables or fiber on our remote properties and weather can be an issue. So if its a huge requirement to stream video then we may not be the cabin for you.
CABIN LICENSE: We are providing you a License to use our Cabin similar to that of renting a car, as a licensee you are bound to the cabin rules at all times, and you forgo the rights of a "lease" or "tenant". Violations of our cabin rules can result in your immediate removal from our cabin, by renting our cabin you agree to these terms. If you'd like a full copy of the license please let us know in advance and one will be provided to you.
