Guest access The entire home. Other things to note You are in the elements! It’s best to drive up in a vehicle that can take handle a rocky road - and ideal to drive up the first time during the daylight hours. It is very important that you check all the driving details PRIOR/BEFORE going up the mountain as you could lose service intermittently. Hot tub / Jacuzzi heating PRIOR to your arrival requires an additional $45 fee (which will be required to be paid prior to pre-heating). Otherwise, you are welcome to turn on the heater once you arrive, but keep in mind, the hot tub typically takes a full day to heat.
