Other Information
Cell service is available at our house. We have wifi that sometimes works great and sometimes not so great - this is unfortunately beyond our control as our more remote location limits options!
We are in the woods - woods which are shared with critters of all kinds. We have a pest control service, but we cannot spray the entirety of the forest, and we wouldn't want to - our local pollinators are important!
There are Ring doorbell cameras at both the front and back doors of the cabin.
