✅ • Driving to the Property.
The drive to the property is part of the mountain experience. The road is maintained gravel, with only the sharp curves paved to provide better traction and easier navigation.
As you gain elevation, you’ll encounter several steep inclines, especially as you get closer to the property. While many standard vehicles make the drive without issue in good weather, we recommend an AWD or 4WD vehicle for added confidence and comfort. Depending on your vehicle and current road conditions, 2WD may still be sufficient.
We encourage guests to drive slowly, use caution on the curves, and enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery along the way.
