The curtains do not slide on the rod and are permanently affixed to the wall. Do not attempt to slide or pull on the curtains in anyway to avoid ripping them off the wall. Do not remove the tassel from the wall. - Furniture, flower, and light installations were specifically curated for the space, any labor or supplies required to repair, replace and/or reinstall will be the guest's responsibility. 📅 Check-In / Out - Check-in: 4:00 PM | Check-out: 10:00 AM (electronic lock code) - $100 fee every 15 minutes past checkout. ⚠️ If you require earlier check-in, please add the night before to your reservation. 🛑 Septic & Well System: – Only flush toilet paper. – The well requires power – if there’s an outage, water will stop once the tank runs dry (rare but possible). 👙 Hot Tub: – Keep cover on when not in use; do not stand on the cover ($450 replacement fee). - No soaps, lotions, or oils allowed. - The hot tub is cleaned and sanitized between each guest. Guests may request a mid-stay hot tub cleaning for $65. - Do NOT remove the filter, as objects can enter the pump. The hot tub will shut off, and there will be a code identifying that the pump is compromised. This can result in damage and repair charges. 🔥 Fire Pit & Outdoor Amenities: ⚠️ Do not use the fire pit unless you have experience with fire safety. Do not use the fire pit in windy/dry conditions, or when a burn ban is in effect (misdemeanor with a $2500 fine). - Put the fire completely out with a hose before retiring. ⚠️ Propane is filled regularly for the gas fire-table but is not guaranteed to be full; tanks can be filled in town. - Turn off the propane tank after use. - No accelerants, no trash burning, no cooking paraphernalia in fires, including pots and pans, etc. ⚠️ Important Soaking Tub Guidelines: Please keep the cover securely on the outdoor soaking tub when not in use. The tub is connected to the septic system, and excess rainwater can lead to backups that may affect your comfort during your stay. Guests may be held responsible for damage resulting from negligence. Additionally, the soaking tub will be unavailable during freezing temperatures to prevent burst pipe damage. We truly appreciate your understanding and diligence in following these guidelines to help keep everything running smoothly! 🐻 Mountain Living: – Bears are knotty and smart; they know how to open unlocked car doors. – Keep the shower curtain inside the tub/shower to prevent costly ceiling/floor damage. – Critters may find their way in; we have regular pest control. – In extreme weather, HVAC may maintain mid-60s (winter) and mid-70s (summer). Rest assured, we will address any issues promptly during your stay. – Power/Internet outages may occur in extreme weather. The well requires power – if there’s an outage, water will stop once the tank runs dry. – We are located in a mountain resort community at the top of a hill high above surrounding cabins. Nearby cabins are visible from the back deck seasonally. We have a privacy fence around the hot tub, soaking tub, and patio sofa enclosing the porch. 📱 Cell service may be limited in some areas. Please download maps offline and enable Wi-Fi calling to avoid connectivity issues. 🚗 Mountain Driving: ⚠️ Upon booking guest is required to acknowledge that All Wheel Drive (AWD / 4x4) is required to reach the cabin in snow/ice (possible in Oct-May). ▻ We strongly suggest winter tires and chains if snow or ice is forecasted, as they can significantly enhance traction and control and could be necessary on steep mountain roads. ▻ The driveway is paved, flat and can accommodate many vehicles but the road up to the cabin is .5 miles of steep winding mountain roads switching between gravel and asphalt. ⚠️ Refund Policy - No changes/refunds due to illness/fear of heights/mountain road conditions/inclement weather/natural disasters/power or internet outages/acts of God/events going beyond the host's control. Guests are required to report any issues with cleanliness, items in need of repair, or disruptions to their stay or comfort during their stay to provide the host time to correct the issue. No refunds will be considered for anything reported after checkout or if the guest is offered a refund contingent upon vacating but chooses to continue their stay.

Access to the entire cabin except one locked closet that stores supplies and chemicals.
