we shut the heat off in our home for the winter, but go up a few times to ski.
we usually go up on a Friday night, turn on the heat, stoke up the wood stove and turn on the heated mattress pad AND electric blanket. kinda like an electric blanket sandwich. We then go to our favorite bar for a few hours and when we come back our bed is toasty warm. The mattress stays cold for a long time and the heated pad is necessary to keep our butts from freezing.
We do this for the 1st night only as it takes at about 12 hours for the place to warm up comfortably
