According to one visitor, "The cabin itself is a nicely restored 2-story with kitchen (including gas refrigerator and range) and sleeping space for 6, with folding futon downstairs and 1 full size upstairs across from 2 singles."

There's a well-kept outhouse, just outside the gated area." A fuel station with groceries, produce, and other essentials is located approximately four miles from Heritage Cabin Property.
