Please note:
Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but because of the natural mountain setting, you may still notice leaves, pollen, or other outdoor elements—especially in certain seasons. Nature has a way of leaving its mark, no matter how often we tidy up.
Wi-Fi is available, though due to the remote location, service may occasionally be slower or spotty. We recommend downloading any essential content ahead of time, just in case.
Thank you for understanding, and we hope you embrace the adventure—this peaceful, scenic setting is exactly what makes High Mountain Perch such a special mountain escape!
