Other things to note: REMOTE CABIN STUFF \- Our cabin has satellite Starlink internet and therefore the connection can sometimes drop for a few seconds every hour or so. Not noticeable unless work from home with lots of long duration video and voice calls. Use your time at our home to disconnect from technology and embrace the beauty of the Rockies! \- The Master Bedroom has low, sloped ceilings so please watch your head when going upstairs and walking around! SNOW \- During winter / spring months, we highly recommend a four-wheel drive vehicle to be able to easily park in our potentially snowy / icy driveway. Please plan accordingly as we do not offer refunds due to road conditions and incapable vehicles. The driveway is short at only about 50 yards from a county-maintained road that is well-plowed. Guests may have to shovel out (snow shovel provided) the driveway if there is a large snowstorm during the visit. Large snowstorms occur 1-5 times/season. It is recommended to be able-bodied during winter/early spring months. WILDLIFE \- Please do not leave trash and food outside as this will attract wildlife! Bears, elk, big horn sheep, and deer roam the area. However, encounters are rare. WIND \- The cabin occasionally gets high winds, especially in the winter months, sometimes reaching up to 65 miles per hour. The noise from the wind can be quite noticeable. Ensure you and your guests understand that such conditions may exist during your stay. LANDSCAPE \- The land can be uneven, rocky, and dangerous in the Rocky Mountains. Please be mindful of proper footing around the property. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Close to skiing - Snowboarding nearby ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - On a river ### Things to do - Casino nearby - Fishing nearby - Hunting nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 984 square feet ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90290000/90280600/90280517/90204bd8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Adorable Cottage in National Forest -- hiking & climbing steps from your door!
