A Real Mountain Experience
This is a genuine, rustic mountain cabin—not a resort or hotel. Weather, wildlife, and seasonal insects, including ladybugs and stink bugs common to the region, are part of mountain living.
For added reliability in this secluded mountain setting, the cabin is equipped with an automatic whole-home standby generator designed to restore power automatically in the event of an electrical outage. Severe weather may still occasionally affect satellite TV, internet/cellular service, or other utilities, and the private well may experience brief interruptions.
Guests with significant pet or environmental allergies should be aware that pets are allowed and that pollen and dust are part of the natural mountain environment.
