-Firewood is not generally provided. Please let me know if you’d like some provided (I will try my best, but there is no guarantee).

-The well water is equipped with a whole-home water filtration system that conducts a cleaning cycle at night. We have never had a guest complain, but you may hear the sound of water running for a short time while it cleans the filters.

-This cabin is in the mountains and in the woods. Occasionally, ants, ladybugs, beetles, etc. can find a way into the house. This isn’t the city; if you’re afraid of seeing one of these, please find a hotel in town. We keep our home extremely clean and will quickly address any concern you have about seeing bugs.
