2025 Cabin Schedule

   

For the long Holiday weekends, Please check who else plans to be at the cabin so everyone can assess and make informed decisions.

As usual, all requests for vacation time at the cabin go through Doug. (the owners will then decide to grant or decline the request, depending on availability and circumstances)

Important Rules!

Play safe …It's a long way to a hospital. Cell phones may not work and 911 may not be able to find you here. (our 911 # is 1177 Black River Rd, East)

Wear life jackets when on the water … 4 people have drowned near here in the last 10 years.

Don't wander off by yourself because there are no “Search / Rescue” efforts until first light.

Tend your campfires carefully and no fireworks in dry conditions! There is a better than good chance of a forest fire.

Take your recycle/garbage home ... feeding the bears is not recommended.

Leave the wood box full ... the next visitor will thank you.

Don't leave mousetraps set when you leave ... It can be a stinky mess by the time someone finds it.

Before using somebody's snowmobile or ATV, please ask the owner and If you break it, offer to fix it.

When leaving please turn off the following,

1. the 12vdc power on push button panel,
2. the cabin inverter,
3. the propane tank in the shed
4. the inverter in the garage

 and lock all sheds, cabin doors, windows and the gate.

In general, leave the Cabin as good or better than you found it.
