Other things to note
Important to Note
We love this home, and we think you will too! But just a few things to keep in mind:

-Winter access: Our driveway is 15 feet from the house, and while plowed, snow can occasionally make access tricky. The last turn is slightly uphill.

-Steep stairs: As with many A-frame cabins, the stairs to the second floor are steep, but a sturdy grab rail is provided.

-Nature’s charm: This is a cabin in the woods, so expect the occasional friendly bug.

-Security cameras: There are exterior cameras facing the front entry and driveway for safety (no indoor cameras).

No smoking inside the cabin.
