-In the winter, please check road conditions on Caltrans website before driving up. Guests must be prepared for snow, with a 4WD vehicle and carry chains.

- There are 2 Ring cameras on the property- one at the front door facing driveway, and one by the patio door. Please note these cameras are not actively monitored throughout your stay. These are placed for safety, and allows us to track mountain things like rain, snow, wildlife, etc.

-Respect the Septic! We run on septic, so absolutely NO flushing any item that is not waste or toilet paper. This means no Kleenex. Even "flushable items" will cause an issue.

-There will be spotty cell service. Verizon works best, but it’s always a good idea to check your destination before departing to or from the cabin. Our WiFi works incredibly well!

- We provide a bear bin on property. All trash and recycling goes to the bear bin at the front of the driveway, secured shut and flag up for pick up. Trash day is Thursday morning.
