⚠️ Please Note:
This cabin features a ship’s ladder to access the loft and is not suitable for guests with mobility challenges. Due to the ladder and loft layout with low, sloped ceilings, and compact design, it is not suitable for toddler- aged children.
The cabin is located in a rural setting, and you may see deer, bears, several birds species, squirrels, bugs, etc. Welcome to the forest, where you can experience all that Mother Nature chooses to show us :) We do ask that you follow the usual precautions such as keeping food and garbage securely stored in provided containers.
🛏️ Comfortable Sleeping Arrangements
Loft: Climb the ship’s ladder to the cozy loft, which features a double/full bed tucked beneath 5 ft (at the peak) sloped ceiling. It’s the perfect nest for a restful night, and also includes a lounging area; a great spot to read, relax, or unwind after a day outdoors. There is a lockable hatch door to ensure privacy.
Bunk Room: Located on the main floor, the bunk room contains three bunk beds (2 lower and 1 upper bunk). Above one of the lower bunks is a large guest storage space for suitcases and additional gear. The room comfortably sleeps up to three guests, with a top bunk suitable for older children or an adult. Each bunk has a lamp, portable fan and charging station.
🍳 Compact Kitchenette
The efficient kitchenette includes a mini fridge with small freezer, microwave, kettle, and basic cookware. Everything you need to whip up light meals, hot drinks, or easy breakfasts. The dining area comfortably seats 5 guests (fifth folding chair is stored under bunk). The kitchenette also features a small coffee bar area and a WETT- certified wood stove with free dry firewood.
Please be aware the loft area heats up quickly and keeping the hatch closed will keep the area at a comfortable sleeping temperature.
