Other Things to Note:
A wood burning fireplace has been added to the cabin in 1940. During the last scheduled inspection and cleaning we were advised the fireplace is no longer safe to be used. A major renovation will be needed in order to be brought up to code and deemed safe to use. Please be advised that starting a fire would be unsafe for your group and the building itself and we strictly prohibit it. Please reach out to your host if you have any questions on this subject.
So much charm comes with its own drawbacks. Being such an old and quirky building, the ceiling height on the upper level bedroom and some pass-throughs might be an issue for our taller guests. Please watch your head!
We pride ourselves in providing a clean and tidy space for all our guests. Due to high interest and accepting same day reservations, we want to allow our cleaner all necessary time to thoroughly complete cleaning and disinfecting tasks. For this reason we are not able to accommodate late checkout requests. Please plan accordingly and book the correct amount of days as to allow for a prompt 11 AM checkout time. A late checkout fee of $150 will be added to your reservation costs if house is not vacant by 11:30 AM.
Interaction with Guests:
Your host lives and works in Woodland Park, about 15 minutes away. She is easy to reach via messaging system or by text or phone call for emergencies. Phone number is available post booking.
