A Log Cabin Packing List Made Easy - Wood you believe?!

Using the Log Cabin Packing List will take the stress out of thinking what to pack for your time away. Rather spend that time thinking about what food you are going to take with, what games you and the family can all enjoy and what activities will be best suited to you at your destination. 

Tip 1: Check out the facilities available at your destination site to maximise the type of essentials you will need to take with. Eg. electricity, on site store, swimming, etc.

Tip 2: Keep cabin packing list items as small as possible ie. Pack toiletries into smaller containers eg. Shampoo, toothpaste

Tip 3: Check the weather beforehand to ensure that you pack the correct clothes

Tip 4: Phone ahead to ensure that your log cabin is well situated on the site

Tip 5: Be aware of the environment and try to recycle. Leave the site as you find it!

Helpful List Hints: Try selecting (ctrl+a) and copying (ctrl+c) the lists from the page and pasting (ctrl+v) them into Microsoft Word for easier access, updates and printing. (We will try to supply a .doc format link as soon as we can)
