Guest Access:
• Vehicle Requirements: For your comfort and safety, an AWD or 4WD vehicle is essential during the snow season (October–May) and highly recommended year-round due to our natural dirt roads and steep inclines.
• Winter Flexibility: Our local community volunteers work hard to maintain the roads, but heavy snow (especially in February and March) can cause delays. We suggest keeping your travel schedule flexible when snow is in the forecast.

Parking & Driveway Navigation
• Arrival & Maneuvering: Our long, narrow driveway can accommodate up to six vehicles with an additional two inside the garage.
• Backing In: For the easiest departure, we recommend backing up the driveway upon arrival; turning a vehicle around at the top can be tight when the garage is occupied.
• Departure: We highly recommend exiting the driveway facing forward due to the steep mountain incline.
• Route Tip: There is no need for a multi-point turn at the base of the drive; simply continue forward and your GPS will seamlessly redirect you back to Hwy 24.
• Important Note: To maintain access for neighbors and emergency services, parking on the road is strictly prohibited at all times.
• Planning: If traveling with a large group, please coordinate your parking order to minimize the need for vehicle shuffling.
Arrival & Home Access
• First Entry: Your initial access to the home will be via the deck stairs leading to the front door.
• Secure Entry: You will receive a unique personal lock code prior to arrival for effortless self-check-in.
• Garage Use: Inside the home, you will find two garage door remotes available for your use throughout your stay.
• Checkout Reminder: Please ensure both garage remotes are returned to their original location before you depart.
