Wood-burning fireplace with gas starter
8" rain shower + bathtub for post-hike/post-ski recovery
Gas BBQ grill + outdoor dining and lounge seating
Intentionally TV-free (WiFi for streaming on your device)
No pets
Start your morning with coffee under the pines, then step off the deck and straight into the forest. With two nearby trails, it’s easy to disappear into the trees—often without seeing many people—then come back to a warm fire and dinner outside as the light shifts through the branches.
Kitchen & dining
Cook comfortably in a fully stocked kitchen with a Samsung stainless steel gas stove, oven, dishwasher, refrigerator/freezer, microwave, blender, toaster, coffee maker, and the pots, pans, and utensils you’ll actually use. Eat indoors at the dining table (seating for 4) or take every meal outside to the forest-facing deck.
Sleeping setup
The primary bedroom features a queen Serta Perfect Sleeper mattress and a panoramic window into the National Forest. The loft bedroom has a full bed with a memory foam mattress and that treehouse-like feel, tucked in among the pines. For guest #5, choose the living-room daybed as a twin (remove the back cushions) or the full-size air mattress (sheets + electric pump provided).
Living room (made for conversation)
Light the fireplace, put on a record or a playlist (AirPlay or plug-in sound system), and settle in with books and board games. High-speed WiFi and a dedicated workspace are here when you need them—just bring your laptop or tablet if you want to stream.
Easy arrival & important notes
Self check-in is seamless with a smart lock and keypad code. Exterior-only security cameras are on the property for safety and do not look inside. You’ll have access to the entire cabin except the under-house storage and a first-floor storage closet.
Winter access
The road turns to dirt within about 100 ft of the driveway. The paved driveway is inclined; during storms, snow removal typically arrives within 24 hours, though large storms can take longer.
