Access and Parking Information:
Parking:
The cabin's elevated perch requires navigating a steep paved driveway that transitions into gravel. While all vehicles can manage the paved section, an AWD is essential for the gravel part. Ensure your AWD is in good condition and that you're comfortable with steep gravel terrain. If uncertain, we recommend parking at the hosts' house before proceeding, especially if arriving at night.
For non-AWD vehicles, park just below the cabin at our main house. We'll reserve a spot for you, and it's a brief walk up the gravel driveway to the cabin. Please refrain from attempting the gravel ascent without AWD to avoid potential damage.
Stairs:
Ascend to the cabin via approximately 7 steps, exercising caution and utilizing handrails for safety. Note that the cabin may pose challenges for those with mobility concerns. For further details, please feel free to message us.
