Temperature Comfort
Mountain Crown is a spacious three-level A-frame chalet with soaring cathedral ceilings and large windows that showcase beautiful mountain views and fill the home with natural light. These architectural features are part of what makes the chalet special, but they can also create natural temperature differences between floors.
The home is equipped with a central HVAC system which is professionally maintained Because cool air naturally settles downward and warm air rises, temperatures may vary somewhat between the lower and upper levels. During hot summer afternoons and periods of strong sunlight, the loft and upper floor may take longer to cool than a traditional home.
To help maintain a comfortable indoor environment, we recommend keeping exterior doors closed and closing blinds or curtains during the sunniest parts of the day.
The loft master bedroom’s air vent is located beneath the bed as part of the home’s original design. For the best airflow, please ensure all upstairs vents remain fully open. We have also provided portable fans to help guests customize their comfort and improve air circulation throughout the chalet.

________________________________________
Wildlife Awareness
You may occasionally see bears, raccoons, or other wildlife during your stay.
