-Parking Information
Cars are not permitted to be parked next to the cabins. Please park only in the designated parking areas, which are just a short walk from every cabin. Driving up to the cabins can damage the sensitive desert landscape, so vehicles found parked next to a cabin will incur a $500 fine.

-Luggage Carts
Luggage carts are available in each parking area for your convenience. After unloading, please return the cart so other guests can use it as well.

-Firepit Safety Guidelines
Please never leave the firepit unattended.
For a safe and smooth wind-down, add your final log one hour before you plan to go inside. After the fire has been burning for at least 20 minutes, you may place the mesh lid on top. Please do not put the mesh lid on earlier, as the intense initial heat can damage it. Once the fire has been burning for a full hour, you may place the steel lid on the pit. The fire is too strong during the first hour and can warp or damage the steel lid and cover, so it’s important to let it burn for that initial hour before closing it.

Important:
Please DO NOT USE WATER to extinguish the fire! Water can damage and warp the metal.

Thank you for helping us keep the firepit safe and in great condition!
