Reserve Guye Cabin!

Guye Cabin is open for exclusive Isolation reservations (like Air b&b) this winter
Just check the Club calendar for open dates now through April. Lots of open weekdays!

Due to the pandemic we will not have unlimited Cabin access like in prior years.

If you have been to Guye Cabin in the winter before you have found a welcoming environment. A nice path to the Cabin, warm fires in the stoves, and the winter chill gone.  Archie, Dennis, myself, Elden, Rob, & Ralph have all spent a good part of their Friday to open Guye Cabin and get it going.

If you plan on going to Guye Cabin this winter-

We will continue exclusive use by reservation only (no day use cabin access, however the property and parking are open) as we have all summer and fall. It will be a much different experience than past winters. A real mountain lodge that you are responsible for.

With your reservation you will be responsible for completing the winter opening and closing process.

You must be prepared to make a path from your car to the Cabin (snowshoes might be needed)
Do the winter open of the Cabin – turn on the electric, turn on the water, get a fire going, shovel the snow off the stairs (front and back) and deck, and then close and clean/disinfect when you leave. This is some work and not to be taken lightly!

Guidance will be provided as needed for those unfamiliar with the winter process.

Winter fees-

With a lot fewer people staying at the Cabin we will have to charge more than the normal member/guest rates to cover the cost of utilities

$100 a night in addition to the normal member/guest fee $20/$25 per person

You can reserve Guye Cabin any day of the week. (a day is typically from noon to noon the next day) During the week, there is no snow plowing so you might have to park on the road.

Folks can use the Cabin property anytime for snow play but there will be no access to the Cabin.

Notes- Winter storms do come through sometimes dropping as much as several feet of snow. You must be prepared to dig your car out. There is also the possibility to lose power.
