Other things to note
Important cabin information for a wonderful stay:

We do have portable fans (Dyson on main floor and Lesko in each bedroom). These are also heaters and n addition to the baseboard & wall heaters.
Staircase: Embrace the unique charm of our spiral staircase leading to the upper rooms. Larger checked luggage might face challenges on these snug stairs. The staircase is not recommended for small children either.
Bugs: We have our home professionally managed to control pests by Orkin. However, on a rare occasion, we have insects or even a field mouse make it past the barriers set by the pest control into the cabin. If you are extremely bothered by bugs, definitely reconsider booking any remote cabin in Colorado (but check out our other rentals!).
Mud Season & Winter Driving: Early spring runoff may make our road muddy. Accessible year-round, our cabin recommends AWD/4WD with good tire tread in snowy months (Nov-Apr).
Outdoor Fires: Due to wildfires, please refrain from using any ember-producing equipment.
Water Source: Enjoy safe drinking water from our 283ft deep well. Conserve water to avoid potential well dryness. Hot water tank provides 10-15 min hot showers, reheating quickly.
