Great way to unplug

This is great starter canine for someone looking to see if hike in camping is for them. This is maybe half a mile from parking area. No electricity, cell service, or bathroom has an out house. Also has a stove I think sleeps 12. Wildflowers and Wildlife everywhere. Again a must for a beginner and really a sweet spot for anyone with a big group looking for quiet.
