Spurt cabin was great. Those that are taking care of the cabins do a dynamite job. Lots of cut wood for fire ready to use. New oithouses are outstanding. They take pride in making these cabins top notch

Older cabin but still nice. Oil heater was a plus. Wet stormy weather kept us in the cabin most of the trip. Best to arrive or depart during rising tide, the cove becomes a big mud flat on low tide.

The new outhouse was a very nice surprise! Saw different critters around the cabin from otters to a pine martin and a few smaller fuzzy guests.
