IIRC Moody lent his spare Invisibility Cloak to the Order.

Yes, GH was spelled so that only those authorised by the SK could find it, but
the spell applied to the place, not the persons. Once James or Lily stepped 
outside the door....

In fact, the most logical person to have the IC is the SK. They can then come 
and go unobserved and it would help conceal them from those anxious to
ask them a few questions.

Now - some unsubstantiated speculation - what if, as with the Dept. of Mysteries,
DD had members of the Order on watch at GH? That voice shouting a warning
to Lily - lots of fans think that Lupin's response offers a smidgeon of doubt 
as to who it actually was - plus past posts theorising that there was a Third 
(or even a Fourth) Man at GH.
Hmm. I wonder.
