When it is cold enough, you can ski at Cloudmont Ski Resort, and when it’s warm enough you can swim in the river. *Fireworks are strictly prohibited on our property at all times, including holidays.

We are happy to answer any questions about our home and the area! Hope to see you soon! ***Wildlife frequents this area, please use caution*** ***We love our big, warm windows - and in the winter, so do ladybugs! They are harmless but resistant to pest control treatments. Please open and close the door to the porch quickly to reduce the number that get inside. If they do, we’ve left a small vacuum in the corner of the dining room. You can suck them up and dump them back outside!*** ***We kindly ask guests to treat all towels and linens with care. If any items are stained or damaged beyond repair, a replacement fee will be charged to cover the cost of new linens.
