Winter conditions may cover the deck in snow, rendering it inaccessible, and the furniture may be snow-covered during the winter months from November to April.

Guest Access:
You will have access to the entire property. Access to the back deck is seasonal, depending on snow accumulation, during the months of November to April.

The Neighborhood:
Duck Creek Village is a small, quaint mountain town that offers quick access to Southern Utah's best national parks. Although we are 'in the mountains,' we are not 'off the grid' and we do have neighbors nearby, so you can expect to see and hear others during the day. The cabin is very close to 'The Village' where the gas station, hardware store, restaurants and pub are located. It's a short drive or a nice walk to get there.

Getting Around:
🚨‼️ 4WD is REQUIRED in the winter months, from November to April. NO exceptions! Please do not attempt to make it in 2WD with chains. We are at 8,000 feet on the top of a mountain. The roads could be 'clear' upon your arrival and a 2-foot storm can roll in overnight. You need to be prepared with 4WD ‼️🚨

You will have ample parking for you and your guests. We do have a parking spot for trailers, but we do not allow guests to camp in RVs outside. Guests are permitted to stay INSIDE of the property only. Maximum occupancy is 10 guests, no exceptions.

Other Things to Note:
We highly recommend that you complete your grocery shopping before driving up the mountain, as there are very limited options for groceries on the mountain. The hardware store has a small grocery selection in case you forget any odds and ends, but we would not recommend relying on this for your entire trip. There are restaurants in The Village and their hours vary depending upon the season. 🛒🍔

We do not stock firewood for the fire pit or propane for the fire table on the deck. We do stock propane and pellets for the grills.
