  9. When you get into downtown Hoodsport, you'll turn left at SR 119. Look for brown highway signs for Lake Cushman and Staircase Recreational Areas.
  10. Head up the hill. You'll pass a couple of shops and you'll see signs for various developments. Just pass them by.
  11. The road will become windy, narrow, and steep on the sides. The lake will be WAY down the hill on the left. DO NOT LOOK! Just focus on driving and not sight seeing or looking for signs.
  12. The road will straighten and flatten out. Eventrally you'll come to a stop sign at a "T". Right turns into a dirt road. Left is paved. GO LEFT.
  13. This road goes up the hill and down the other side. At the bottom, there is a big "Mt. Rose Community" sign. Turn left here. If you don't, the road turns to dirt.
  14. Follow the road down hill. Stay left at mail boxes. You will come to a stop sign at the "T" (Potlatch Dr). Turn LEFT.

  16. If you get to the big parking lot on the right (lake side), then you went two houses too far. Turn around and come back two houses. Park in the driveway if there is room.
  17. Check the door for special notes. If we don't hear you ring, come around back and down to the lake. We should see you then.
