Clean-up from recent storms has filled the “Take Some, Leave Some” wood pile! 🪵

While we don’t officially supply the cabins with wood, we have this area near the entrance. Feel free to take what you need for campfires, we just ask you put back what you don’t use for the next guests! And any wood or sticks on the property is free to use as well, just use some caution & common sense when exploring the property to collect it. 😁

Also, a pic of Sunrise puppy, Lucy. Because firewood isn’t that exciting. But puppies are. 🐶

Another beautiful sunrise? Nope, just the 2024 Eclipse!

We’re getting great feedback on the hot tubs! After-hike relaxing . . . Romantic evenings . . . Stargazing . . . We’ve even had guests say they enjoy a nice pre-breakfast soak while watching the sunrise from the hot tubs! 😅 With Winter around the corner, the hot tubs will be the perfect addition to your stay at the cabins 🌟
