I always enjoy time out at the Starrigavan Cabin. The access to it is so easy and early in the season, it feels like you are far away from civilization. April is usually the month we choose to celebrate our son's birthday @ the cabin, but the weather is erratic, sometimes with snow. However, bears are not usually a concern.
We lucked out for this trip and had minimal rain. In the past we have had to hang a tarp to stay dry if we wanted to be outside. I think bringing your own chairs is more comfortable that the wet benches and cold rock to sit on by the fire but having a picnic table is very handy. If you are inside, a lantern of some sort is very helpful. We also usually park one car on the other side of the boardwalk just to be safe since we are locked in by the gate in the evening.
The host was very accommodating. The cabin was clean & being able to purchase wood on site saves us a lot of effort. It is a bummer that the artesian well is shut down.
You really can't go wrong with this cabin, it is cozy an in a gorgeous, easy setting!
