The roads to the cabin are all paved and it's easy to get around and drive into town. There is a convenience store (Marathon Gas Station/Kenjo) less than 2 miles from the cabin. If taking the back way, Wal Mart is about 5.8 miles (20 minutes - roads are curvy). If taking the parkway (Hwy 441) it will be 11.2 miles (27 minutes). During busy tourist seasons, this will take a lot longer.
