The biggest issue year after year is the condition of the road. It was polished ice and 4x4 with chains is the only safe way to access or leave the cabin.
The cabin was in great condition.

Overall the cabin was in good shape. It was clean with no major issues/defects. It could use some insulating spray foam in the logs around the windows on the inside. There was a noticeable amount of frost inside the cabin on the bottom of one of the windows. Also, the main man door is crooked creating 2 noticeable gaps letting cold air leak in. Some weather stripping would help fix that issue. Wood stove was in good working order, woodshed in good shape and had several logs inside.
