Stuff You Should Know

Summit Prairie is completely off-grid, powered by solar panels with limited electricity—don’t expect to charge multiple devices. The fire lookout is accessible via a 40-foot staircase. Guests should bring their own food. There’s a composting toilet at the base of the tower and a well-equipped kitchen in the main living area. The property’s remote location guarantees tranquility but also means cell service is unreliable. Reserve well in advance—this popular Airbnb has a long waitlist!
