Attention winter guests November through March. It is highly recommended you have a four-wheel drive vehicle. This rental is located on an unpaved road which in winter weather can be unpredictable and cause road challenges. While we do maintain the roads by plowing and salting you may find you will have to park further downhill and walk the remainder of the roadway to access rental during times of poor weather. Please also note the pathways from parking areas to rentals are also not paved and can be icy and slippery. It is highly recommended to wear hiking boots, ice grips on your shoes or snowshoes. Think of the property as a hiking trail in the woods. The East Yurt is located at our resort among other cabins and unique rentals. However, you will have your privacy as there are no shared spaces around your rental. The grill station, fire-pit and outdoor shower are private for your use. The rentals are also thoughtfully designed and oriented to allow for maximum privacy. Pool information You will have access to the resort pool which is shared with other guests. Pool is typically open from June through Labor Day but opening and closure dates vary based on current weather conditions and can change without notice. If you are reserving a stay near an opening or closure date it is to be known that the pool may not be open yet due to the above reasons stated above. The pool also has specific operating hours and rules outlined in the house rules section of this listing. The pool may shutdown unexpectedly due to weather or maintenance without warning. We do not provide pool towels so please plan ahead and bring your own. Wi-Fi and cell phone disclaimer Wifi service is shared with all other guests. Please note that we are in the mountains with limited cell towers and cable internet service. When there is a surge of people in the Lake George area Wi-Fi and cell service tend to bog down. Service is best in the early morning before 8 am and after 11 pm as usage is down at these times. This is not just a problem at our resort but all over the area given the terrain and limited cell towers. Weekends are the worst of the times and weekdays have much better service as there are less people in the area fighting for the same service.
