We recommend downloading anything you'd like to watch ahead of time, casting from your phone, etc. *Cell phones will work well when connected to the wifi. *We promise to resolve any unforeseen maintenance issues that may arise as quickly as possible, but ask for your flexibility in understanding the limitations to being a remote location.
