Getting Around
A car is essential for getting around the area, as this home is tucked into the mountains for peace and privacy. The roads are paved and well-maintained, but we recommend AWD or 4WD during winter months or inclement weather.

You'll be just minutes from wineries, breweries, hiking trails, and scenic overlooks—most attractions are within a 10–20 minute drive. Ample on-site parking makes coming and going easy.

Looking to explore without driving? Local tour companies offer private wine and brewery transportation—perfect for a girls’ weekend or a romantic outing.

Peak Retreat is located on a scenic mountain road. While fully accessible, AWD/4WD is strongly recommended during winter weather or inclement conditions.

The spiral staircase to the loft is a striking design feature but may not be ideal for small children or guests with mobility concerns. The loft is open to the main living space and best suited for guests comfortable with limited privacy.

This home is designed for relaxation, longer stays, and respectful enjoyment. Quiet hours begin at 10:00 p.m. to preserve the peaceful mountain setting.

Other Things to Note:
No pets or smoking permitted
Hot tub is available year-round

Wildlife Notice:
We share the mountain with local wildlife, including a black bear that occasionally passes through the area. Please secure trash and food as instructed to help keep both guests and wildlife safe.

Country Living & Pest Control:
As with all rural mountain homes, occasional insects may appear despite our quarterly professional pest control program. This is a natural part of the countryside and not a reflection of cleanliness.

We’re always happy to help with questions before or during your stay.
