• Important to Note: Peace of Heaven cabin is tucked in for that true mountain escape—and with that comes a bit of adventure! While some guests have made it up just fine in a 2-wheel drive vehicle, we highly recommend all-wheel or 4-wheel drive. For guests with standard cars, we provide 1 parking space at the base of the driveway which is .25 miles from the cabin. The gravel driveway is well maintained, but it does have a few curves and steeper sections that can be tricky for standard vehicles. If you're driving a 2WD, turning off Traction Control can help with grip on the incline. We want your arrival to be smooth and stress-free, so please plan accordingly. Guests are responsible for ensuring their vehicle can access the property and for any significant road damage caused by lack of traction.
