Interesting - sounds like a great place to have an event - any additional info on rental fees?
Oddly enough I haven't found rental fees. I'll have to check into that when they open on Monday. They do suggest that cabin-only use is better with 30 or fewer people, but cabin and grounds can be up to 55 people. Electricity is available, but there is no running water inside the cabin.
