About this cabin rental
Welcome to Rudel Retreat.
☆ Early Check-In/Late Check-Out:
It is allowed only if it is available. Please ask PRIOR TO CHECK-IN. There is a fee of $15 per hour with a minimum of 2 hours ($30). Ideally, it should be requested, at minimum, two days prior to your check-in/check-out day. Otherwise, we may not be able to accomodate you because we pre-book our cleaners and we can not ask them to arrange their prescheduled cleaning time. If approved, payment prior to check-
in will be required.
Please note, if you arrive early, you will not be able to check-in early. The code activates at the assigned time of check-in. We use the time between guests arrival to perform cabin maintance or cleaning. It is disruptive to the cleaner if they see you waiting in the car. The lake is just a few minutes past the cabin turn-off. They have restrooms, snack bars, food trucks and there is a grocery store just before the lake called Pinecrest Market. That is an alternative if you arrive early.
**Please note, do not use our outlets to charge your electric car. It can blow out our circuit and you will be liable. The cabins are older and can not handle the electrical load**
