Quiet time on the front porch starts at 10pm please be respectful of our neighbors. FYI you are in the woods and there are lots of critters. We do have occasion to have a few spiders in the house it is unavoidable you are in the woods. We do spray for them and bomb under the house which keeps them down.
We will have a package of coffee, sugar and creamer for you (under most circumstances) below the coffee pot. We have a bumper pool table that “triples” as a card, and dining table. Pool balls are in the drawer by the sofa. In the mud room you will find a Foosball table for hours of fun with the washer and dryer. We have a propane BBQ! (Sorry due to fire risk the Treager smoker is for owner use only) The large dining table accommodates up to 10.
A wood burning stove in the kitchen provides quick heating along with a huge living room fireplace. There is also electric heat. Once warm, the cabin stays that way.
We have a washer and dryer on premises in the mud room. Please feel free to use them to wash your clothes or towels if needed. We have soap and dryer sheets all unscented. The machine is a High Efficiency and requires very little soap because our water is very soft and the machine can over suds. During cold months where freezing temperatures are expected the washer will be winterized and is not to be used. The freeze will break the pipes and pump in the washer. A note will be left on the washer door indicating it has been winterized. The dryer can be used though. there is a laundromat in town next to the Market.
Wildlife abounds in the area with several lakes are within a 15-minute drive for trout fishing. Hunters are welcome! The Black River also runs year-round for great fishing, hiking and wildlife viewing. Alpine is an excellent area for cross country skiing or snow shoeing - so bring your gear. Toboggan Hill is just around the corner on Big Lake Road. There are a few sleds at the cabin under the porch along with some bicycles. We have a pump if the tires need air.
The cabin has many board games, cards, poker chips, horseshoe pit, Tetherball, Foose Ball table, soccer ball and a giant Jenga for playing with the whole family as well a huge collection of videos to watch. There are other games in the front deck bin. Please put away when done.
The cabin, being built in 1968 is a little noisy and sound does travel. Fans are in each room for circulation and noise reduction. We have just put new laminated flooring in, and it is beautiful! The bedrooms have skylights with shutters if you like it dark.
The cabin does get mice it is unavoidable. If one is found in the trap, please throw the mouse and trap away.

The driveway is not real steep, but it is long. If you are renting in the winter and the driveway needs to be plowed due to high snow, then the fee for plowing of the driveway is $150 each time the driveway needs to be plowed. 4-wheel drive is also recommended during the winter. We are not responsible if you cannot get up to the house due to snow and ice.
