🏠 Unique Two-Level Loft – Spacious layout with a separate sleeping loft and hangout space that sleeps groups comfortably.
🎿 Professional Gear Drying Room – A dedicated, “serious gear drying set up” with boot dryers and ample storage, so gear never clutters your living space.
🛋️ Cozy & Fully Equipped – A well-stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and a collection of games/books create a “homey and comfortable” vibe.
🌲 Peaceful & Private Retreat – A secluded, tranquil setting above a storage garage, offering a “perfect balance between secluded & everything you need.”
