There is absolutely no smoking inside the cabin, and please no lit candles or open flames inside. A $250 deep cleaning fee will apply if you smoke inside the home to cover extra cleaning time. ✶Fireplace, firepits & grills: If you plan on using the fire pit or grill, please refer to the posted instructions and safety guidelines as well as current local regulations. Due to Colorado being at risk to wildfires, please always check to see if there are current fire restrictions to avoid the fire department being called and paying you a visit. Please follow posted instructions and use common sense when building and lighting a fire in the outdoor wood-burning fireplace. No liquid fuels or starters, please.
