MORE INFO & FAQs
You can explore on foot, bike or UTV from the cabin but most destinations will require travel by car.
There is limited cell service at the cabin but you can make calls once connected to wifi.
Guests have full access to the cabin.
A local contact is available for any questions or issues.
We would love for you to bring your furry family members to the cabin! Please note that any dog that accompanies you must stay within the property boundaries. When not in the gated backyard, that may mean certain dogs may need to be on a leash. Please pick up all dog poop before departing. Unattended dogs must be kenneled while inside the cabin. They are not to be left in the fenced yard while guests are not around.
The owners DO NOT live on-site. You can expect privacy.
There is no A/C but the cabin stays plenty cool even in the hot summer temps. We recommend cooling the cabin off at night by opening the windows and using the provided fan to pull in cool air. In the morning we recommend shutting the windows as the temperatures warm up again and pulling blinds on South and West side of cabin. That keeps it nice and comfortable all day long.
What is privacy like at the cabin? While the property is only 100' wide, it's surrounded by seasonal properties that are infrequently occupied, it has heavy trees on the property lines as this is in a forest and the nearest home is not on the river but by the road, so despite only being an acre lot it feels extremely private. Other homes are visible from across the river but doesn't intrude on privacy.
Can you hear the train from this cabin? This is one of the only properties along the Moyie River NOT near a train crossing where trains are required to blow their horns, day and night. Many other vacation rentals are within a few hundred feet of a train crossing. You will hear trains stopping and starting but that is generally a max of two a day.
