Kitchen & Dining
The kitchen is stocked for serious home cooking.

Grilling utensils, a knife block, cutting boards, and a full lineup of serveware round out a kitchen that's genuinely ready for a group of 9.

Laundry
Full-size washer and dryer in-unit - ideal for extended stays or anytime you need a refresh after a day outdoors.
Outdoor
A fully working propane grill is available. Propane refills are the guest's responsibility. When the sun goes down, gather around the wood-burning fire pit and let the evening slow down the way it should. The hot tub is the crown jewel - whether it's a chilly mountain morning or a clear night with stars overhead, it earns its keep every single day.
