Really curious about insect control. Are any buildings screened, or is it totally wide open. Also would love to have more details on the solar system, and how they pump water. Is it by hand? Can one 12 volt car battery run a cd player for 6 hours, or a laptop for any length of time? Is there any heating system, fireplace, stove? How does the structure hold up over the winter, snow damage? Did they retrofit the stove for propane or was it built that way? Have similar issues with a place o French River Ont. Thanks,
