CABIN DETAILS:
The designated parking area at the cabin allows for 3 vehicles. There is overflow parking available at the South Baden Clubhouse (0.9 miles from your stay). After parking, you will walk down a number of steps to approach the deck and cabin entry. The deck has a gas fire pit with 4 chairs, featuring a beautiful mountain view (especially when the leaves are falling). Upon walking through the front door, you will see the main floor common area: the kitchen + an open living room with an electric fireplace. There is a queen pull-out sofa bed and a fold-down futon in the living area. The bedroom on the main floor has a king bed with deck access, and there is a bathroom across the hall. The upper floor loft bedroom has a king bed with a private bath and a private balcony. There is a twin sleeper outside of this bedroom in the loft area. The lower level has a room with a bunk bed (double + single) with a private bath and deck access. There is another bedroom with a full-sized bed and a private bath downstairs. The rest of the lower level is a large game room/living area with a pool table, electric fireplace, and washer/dryer. There is a separate hot tub deck accessible from the lower level. ***NOTE: The stairsteps going to the upper and lower level inside this cabin are steep... young children and older individuals should exercise caution while using.
HIGHLY ACTIVE BEAR CABIN:
***Please take careful note: The presence of bears is common. While walking around corners on the property, please mindful, as bears are wild animals and could become startled. If you encounter a bear, PLEASE keep a safe distance and do not attempt to feed them, touch them, or approach them. We suggest that you keep your vehicle locked ALWAYS so that bears cannot intrude, as they commonly look for food.
ROAD CONDITION TO CABIN:
Please be aware that the cabin is located on a mountain. The roads to the cabin are steep, narrow and curvy. 4-wheel drive is encouraged. Exercise caution with decreased visibility during fog, rain, or snow. Depending on your vehicle, driving up and down the mountain may be very dangerous in snowy or icy conditions. We highly recommend that guests check in before dark due to mountain road conditions and unreliable GPS systems/cell phone service.
GUEST ACCESS:
There is an electronic keypad for guest convenience. Guests will be provided the code via the in-app messenger two hours prior to check in.
CHECK IN/OUT:
Check-in is at 4PM and check-out is at 10AM. While we try to go above and beyond to accommodate our guests, we cannot offer early check-ins or late departures. This helps ensure our cleaners can have everything deep cleaned and sanitized for all guests.
HOUSEKEEPING:
There is no daily housekeeping service. While linens and bath towels are included in the cabin, daily maid service is not included in the rental rate. We do not permit towels or linens to be taken from the cabin and a fee may be assessed if the cleaners note an item is missing. Before you leave the cabin, we kindly ask that you follow departure instructions provided prior to check out.
STORMS:
No refunds will be given for storms or other natural disasters. Mountain roads may be curvy and steep, and 4-wheel drive is highly recommended during the winter months. We do not refund due to road conditions.
INCIDENTAL DAMAGES:
Any damage to any items in the cabin including but not limited to couches, chairs, tables, TV’s, hot tub, beds, sheets, towels, pillows, etc., are the sole responsibility of the renter. Every item will be inspected before arrival and after departure. If a guest causes any damage, please notify the owners immediately. Incidental damages will be charged to the renter. It is our home.
