About this property
Private 1 bedroom apartment with private deck and sauna close to ski resorts
This cozy but spacious apartment is the upstairs unit of a renovated barn built in the early 1900s. Recently refurbished, it retains charming features of the original barn. There is a newly redone bathroom, large couch, full kitchen, and TV.
This apartment is located in the ground floor of a renovated barn, originally built in 1900. The bathroom was renovated in 2023, to make a beautiful modern space with shower and tub, and new flooring was installed in the main living space this past year as well.
The open kitchen boasts a 4-burner electric stove and oven, microwave, full sized fridge, coffee maker, and all the basic cooking implements necessary.
The bedroom has a king-size bed, a large dresser, and a large closet.
If there are more than 2 guests and one would like to sleep on the couch, bedding will be provided.
The sauna is custom-built, cedar-lined, wood-fired, and only 4 years old. It is located right outside the front door on the patio. Wood and fire-starting supplies are provided, and you will have unlimited use during your stay.
We DO NOT have Wifi - oddly enough in 2023, any WiFi that we have tried is so slow as to be pointless. Cell phone reception is good, however🤷♀️🤷♀️
Guest access
All living spaces, sauna, and deck are private. In the shared backyard there is a garden, chicken coop with roosters, and a nice lawn area.
Other things to note:
If you want to sauna we will give you a walkthrough of the rules and how to use it, and we will get it started the first couple of times to make sure that you know how to use it.
Please note that the sauna takes about 90 min to reach temp, and while we are happy to have it ready for you on arrival if our schedule permits (it usually does), we do require advance notice.
No smoking, vaping, or e-cigarettes allowed inside. Smoking, vaping, e-cigs allowed on deck.
