G-Maps is very accurate. Some roads up to the cabin are narrow single car lanes. If you encounter an oncoming vehicle, simply pull to the right as far as possible and proceed with safely passing. Please keep speeds at 15 mph or below. Most of the roads leading up to the cabin are paved. You will encounter 4/10 of a mile that is gravel road. It's a little bumpy but smooths out once you reach pavement again. Being a mountain property, some sections of the road are a bit steep. Under normal conditions, a regular front or rear wheel drive vehicle can safely navigate the roads. For your safety, please be cautious especially if icy conditions are present.
