Trout Lake Cabin offers a beautiful setting with easy access to the lake and abundant wildlife, including a memorable moose sighting. Guests appreciate the clean accommodations, fun boating opportunities, and the cozy loft. While the hike can be muddy and the toilet lacks paper, overall experiences are positive, and many express a desire to return.

Lots of wood already stocked at the cabin. Good axe available at the cabin for splitting rounds.
The wood stove started right up without difficulty, although it took a while for the double decker cabin to heat up.

Did this in this year’s snowy October. I can’t love this cabin enough. There are boards to help contain the heat to the first floor if your group doesn’t expand to the second level, which was helpful! Right on the lake with mountains all around. Secluded away from the main Res Pass trail. I hidden gem that I hate to promote for fear of it becoming too popular, because I selfishly want to return again (and again)!

The hike in was great. Unfortunately, there were two guys at the cabin when we got there. They poached it the night before and tried to make us feel guilty because we didn't want to share it with them and let them stay another night. They also burned up the majority of the wood the people that stayed there over the weekend left. We still had a good night even though it was cold. The cabin is beautiful! You guys did a great job! We look forward to coming back and staying here again.
Thanks for all you do.

This is absolutely my favorite cabin on the resurrection pass trail! It's the only 2-story cabin with a loft on the trail. The lake is super epic! It's not muddy at all and it's amazing to swim and skinny-dip in! And there's a row-boat with a dock that they fold out in the summer. In the future, I want to plan a trip where myself and friends have 3-4 days just hanging out at this cabin. It would be great to hike from Coopers landing, stay a few days and maybe hike to Juneau Lake for a couple days for another cabin stay and then back to Coopers landing. The Romig cabin is another favorite of mine. Trout Lake Cabin is in my opinion the raddest cabin on Res Pass Trail!
