Well just to clear things up a bit more, it's a family cabin, not a house.

Anyhow, even if we did try this, we would have to practicially cut down every tree, and clear enough dead underbrush away for about a city block to be on the safe side. And the cabin sits right in the middle of a very dense forrest on the side of a valley. And thats assuming a huge piece of debris dosen't catch the building on fire.

This fire is termed an extreme wildland fire for the fact that it can move quickly, is feeding on the explosive underbrush, and is so big. It's so dangerous that no firefighters are on the ground directly fighting it, due to the threat of them being trapped either from the fire enclosing a space, or moving above them. At this point, the best hope of anything happening is a weather change, and the publics help. This fire, just like a few others, was started by a campfire. This in an area with fire bans so severe that smoking outside may land you in jail. Because of people ignoring the previous bans, effective midnight last night, all access to the Pike National Forrest is restricted to people traveling through it to access either private land, or to get through it to go elsewhere.

The bad news is the update from 6am to 12pm today shows it moving south. The good part is that it's a slow move, so they may me able to contain the movement.
