The cabin consists of a hallway, living room, kitchen, kitchenette, and one bedroom. Despite its age, the space is well utilized, and the cabin feels spacious. The outdoor area has benches and tables made of stone, perfect for enjoying the fresh mountain air.

The bedroom has five sleeping places: a double bed, a single bed, and two shorter beds. Additionally, there is an older bed in the living room.

The outdoor toilet is located in the old barn next to the cabin.
