Important Pre-Booking Notice (Please Read Carefully)
IMPORTANT: This property is intentionally remote and designed for guests seeking solitude, adventure, and an authentic off-grid experience. It is not suitable for travelers expecting hotel-style services, daily cleaning, or on-demand utilities. There are no grocery stores within an hour, so you’ll need to bring to all with you. By booking, you acknowledge the lack of running water, high-altitude conditions, and self-sufficient nature of the stay. If you have any questions about access, amenities, or preparation, please contact us before booking—we are happy to help ensure this is the right fit for you. Due to the remote nature of the cabin and weather conditions, we are unable to refund cancellations due to weather. We will, however, offer a credit (minus any fees) for a future stay.
