All points of entry require a few stairs. Since the building was built over 100 years ago, the dimensions leading into the kitchen are smaller than current standards. The main room floor is ever so slightly slanted, but the bed has been lifted to compensate, so it isn’t noticeable. The room heater and stove are both natural gas. Currently, the room heater is turned off, and two portable heaters are provided instead. The BBQ grill and fire table on the side porch are both propane. Please use caution when lighting. Blackout blinds are provided on the three main large windows.
