A 3 Bedroom, 2 Full bath, 1560 sq/ft, 2 floor cabin nestled in old pine/oak/aspen forest with US forest access for hiking at the rear of the property. The cabin is on a 1.1 acre parcel. Each bedroom has a new Serta Perfect Sleeper Queen bed. There is also a two sleeper sofas (Queen and double) and a cot available. The cabin was built in 1968 and has that old warm cabin charm. Windows abound to view the forest and wildlife from where ever you sit. There is also a fire pit in the front yard and can be used if there is no fire restrictions.There is a beautiful covered porch in front with seating to enjoy your morning coffee with the humming birds, deer, elk, squirrels, Stellar Jays and Woodpeckers. FYI you are in the woods and there are lots of critters. We do have occasion to have a few spiders in the house it is unavoidable in the woods. We do spray for them and bomb under the house which keeps them down.Yes, we will have a package of coffee, sugar and creamer for you(under most circumstances) below the coffee pot. We have a bumper pool table that “triples” as a card, and dining table. In the mud room you will find a foosball table for hours of fun. We have a propane BBQ too. The large dining table accommodates up to 10.A wood burning stove in the kitchen provides quick heating along with a huge living room fire place. There is also electric heat. Once warm, the cabin stays that way.There is a washer and dryer on premises in the mud room. Please feel free to use them to wash your clothes or towels if needed. We have soap and dryer sheets all unscented. The machine is a High Efficiency and requires very little soap because our water is very soft and the machine can over suds. During cold months where freezing temperatures are expected the washer will be winterized and is not to be used. The freeze will break the pipes and pump in the washer. A note will be left on the washer door indicating it has been winterized. The dryer can be used though.Wildlife abounds in the area with several lakes are within a 15 minute drive for trout fishing. Hunters are welcome! The Black river also runs year round for great fishing, hiking and wildlife viewing. Alpine is an excellent area for cross country skiing or snow shoeing – so bring your gear. Toboggan Hill is just around the corner on Big Lake road. There are a few sleds at the cabin under the porch along with some bicycles. We have a pump if the tires need air.The cabin has many board games, horse shoe pit, tetherball, foose ball table, soccer ball and a giant Jenga for playing with the whole family as well a huge collection of videos to watch.The cabin, being built in 1968 is a little noisy and sound does travel. Fans are in each room for circulation and noise reduction. We have just put new laminated flooring in and it is beautiful! The bedrooms have skylights with shutters if you like it dark.There are two mud rooms. There is a double sleeper sofa in the side mud room.NO PETS ALLOWED!Smoking and vaping is allowed outside only. Please do not throw your butts in the yard it could cause a fire. A coffee can painted red on the porch will be provided. Please empty it prior to leaving. No Vaping is allowed in the house. Quiet Time starts at 10pm. Neighbors sleep with the windows open so we ask you to move inside at that time so that you do not disturb their sleep.We are on a septic system so please do not put anything but toilet paper in the toilet; feminine hygiene products (tampons) condoms or wet wipe do not go in the toilet. These products do not break down and will cause a back up.There is no recycling in Alpine, if you wish to recycle bring it home with you please. On Tuesday evening bring all your trash to the blue trash can along the driveway. Then place the can on the road so it can be picked up on Wednesday.
