Other Details to Note

We kindly ask that you do not smoke near to the cabins, on the front porch, or on any of the grassy areas on the property. 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. Only use dry wood, and only add as much as you can allow to burn in your presence. Never leave a burning fire or active coals unattended. If you lit the fire or are the last person or group enjoying it, you are responsible to ensure it is fully extinguished. ✶Other guests: There is no office onsite to check in at, and staff are not onsite at all times. All cabins and the main lodge are individual, private rentals. You will receive info with a contactless check in procedure and your door code via text message and email on the day of check-in, as soon as your cabin is ready for you. Always spread good vibes to your fellow travelers on the patio, and feel free to spark up a chat with a fellow adventurer. ✶Lake George Views: Although our views are as dazzling as a lake sunset, unfortunately, direct access to the lake is a no-go. It's privately owned and under the watchful eye of the HOA, so please do not try your luck with the sheriff. Trespassing on nearby private property will result in your reservation being terminated immediately without refund. But fear not, adventure-seeker! Only minutes away, the 11 Mile Reservoir awaits, offering a treasure trove of swimming, fishing, and hiking delights. So, pack your enthusiasm, and let the reservoir be your playground. ✶SAUNA: Our sauna is open to all guests staying in our onsite cabins on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please remember that not following the rules or instructions at any time can lead to the cancellation of your reservation without a refund. ✶PET FRIENDLY: This is a pet-friendly listing for pets who qualify. Please message us before booking to see if your pets qualify. Damage from pets will result in loss of deposit. There is an additional flat fee for bringing a pet to cover the cleaner's time. The cost of the pet clean is collected via Airbnb. If your stay is longer than five days, we collect an additional fee depending on length of your stay once your reservation is confirmed. We are happy to host both you and your pets! ✶ADDITIONAL FEES: We have put so much work into making your stay perfect, and we value the time we have between guests to prepare for future guests. Please note that there are minimal fees for guaranteed early check ins or late check outs to cover the expenses of reworking the schedule or adding an additional cleaner to the schedule to accommodate your request.
