**WINTER Requirements** All roads leading to the cabin are county maintained, but please understand that it may take the county time to be able to plow. HOWEVER PLEASE understand 4WD, All Wheel Drive and chains or tire cables are a absolute must throughout the winter.

The home is approximately 8 miles direct line of sight from the divide, and weather can and will change fast and can be very dangerous.
Our family Mountain cabin is rustic, quaint, homey and has very simple style, if luxury is what your looking for keep looking.

********Other things to note*********
WIFI - This house is in the mountains. Wi-Fi can be affected by the wind and snow. Intermittent service at times is beyond our control as these mountains have a mind of their own!

***We along with all wood cabins in the mountains have an issue with flies. When you get to cabin you might see flies. We have a small hand held vacuum in hallway near bedroom to quickly clean them up. We also have fly trips in windows, you are welcome to replace those at your convenience if needed. We do apologize but this is a problem with most wooden cabins in the mountains.
TRASH - It is important that any and all trash is bagged before placing into the trash bin. We do not have trash service and we must manually haul trash to the transfer station.
Thank you!
