- Winter: Snowshoes, cross country skis, ice fishing gear, toboggans, swimsuits for the hot tub, and winter tires (not all seasons) or chains

​

Early check in?

We are working hard to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The time in between guests is critical for us accomplishing this and we therefore are unable to offer early check-in.

 

Arrival:

When you arrive you will want to turn right at the Y in the driveway and then right again into the second stall to park in front of the Aspenwood Micro Cabin. During winter months there is optional winter parking near the entrance to the property. 

 

Access:

- Your lock code will automatically be sent to you at 7am on the day of your check-in.

 - Pin pad: You must press 4 code buttons and then the 'lock' button to unlock the door. (for example if your code is 5678, you must press the 5:6 button twice and the 7:8 button twice)

- To lock the door only press the lock button. 

- You may need to apply a little bit of pressure to the door to allow the bolt to slide freely.
