Finding The Hideaway

To find The Hideaway, if coming from Hammondsport (south), drive north on Route 54 and look for the entrance on your right; if you reach Birdseye Hollow Rd, you've gone too far. From Penn Yan (north), head south on Route 54, pass Birdseye Hollow Rd, and The Hideaway will be on your left shortly after. Drive slowly as the entrance is set back in the woods and can be easy to miss. For best results, try to arrive during daylight hours.

Adjusting the Cabin’s Temperature

  • Power On: Press the power button to turn on the unit. You should see indicators on the unit or hear a beep confirming it's powered on.

  • Select Mode: Press the mode button to cycle through the available options (cooling, heating, fan, dry) until you reach your desired mode. Choose cooling for lowering the room temperature, heating to make it warmer, dry to remove humidity, or fan for simple air circulation without temperature change.

  • Set Temperature: Use the temperature adjustment buttons (+/-) to set your preferred temperature. For a comfortable environment, 68°F to 72°F (20°C to 22°C) is recommended for heating, and 72°F to 78°F (22°C to 26°C) for cooling.

  • Adjust Fan Speed: Press the fan speed button to select your desired airflow. Options typically include low, medium, high, or auto. The auto setting is often the best choice, as it adjusts the fan speed based on the current room temperature and the set temperature.
