The dwelling is a fairly modern full service, three bedroom house with heat and running water, and with a large kitchen area, living room, and bathroom. Furnishings and basic kitchen utensils and dishes are provided. Winter vehicle access is available via the plowed loop road. No pets or livestock are allowed for public safety and health reasons.
