White Sulphur Springs Cabin

What a beautiful and well-maintained oasis! We had a relaxing and enjoyable experience in the White Sulphur Springs cabin, timber frame bath house and the shallow outdoor hot springs pool. The cabin was clean, tidy and ready with wood and fire making supplies if you needed them. We brought our own wood and only needed a fire one evening. Great weather made for a safe anchorage out front. We explored into Mirror Harbor for curiosity but with calm weather and no wind, it was great to be able to anchor closer. If one was planning to hike from the West Arm over to the springs on the well worn trail, be mindful that there are lots of slippery boards to navigate.

We stay at White Sulphur every year and have been doing so for decades. There was abundant firewood in the shed and the cabin was in good condition. There were 2-3 trees down across the trail in. If I’d brought a chainsaw I’d have cut them out.
We didn’t sleep much because it was bright inside the cabin at around 2am thanks to the skylights.

Fortunate for good weather—was able to get dropped off and picked up by skiff right in front of cabin site. (Although left a day early due to changing weather report).
There was a half rotting deer carcass just 10 yards west of the bathhouse. Brown bear sow and cub visited the site, but detoured when we made noise.
Plenty of rounds of wood in the shed and 3 mauls and a hatchet, however a file to sharpen them would have been helpful.
The water catch system from the back of the wood shed was a helpful source.
Picked up a garbage bag full of plastic bottles from walking the beaches. Sure wish a coastal cleanup could be arranged!

Very special location and one of a kind experience. Remoteness makes it what it is. Cabin and bath house were in very tidy nice condition. I noticed outhouse pit looked like it might be getting full up in not to distant future. Maybe maintenance to encourage composting May extend life.

It's always a joy to experience the cabin and hot tub during colder weather. Thankfully there was a good supply of firewood, the cabin is warm and dry, and the grounds clear of snow. Always 5 stars.

We ferried in about 150 yards on a dingy from our boat anchored in Mirror Harbor to the trailhead. Good shoes/boots are recommended for the hike in, which was a lovely 30 minutes through the bush on a clearly maintained trail that has several short wet/slippery spots. The cabin is spacious for 4 or more folks. A few dishes, pots, pans, cups, cutlery, and even a propane BBQ were found in the kitchen and deck area and a few types of dry goods were also present that campers had left behind. Some candles and matches, books and games were also found in the cabin. Overall a wonderful experience enjoying the views while soaking in the outdoor tub and bathhouse and accommodations at the cabin.

No firewood, had to gather driftwood, made a trip to Pelican to get two 10 gallon Rubbermaid totes of firewood.
It was rainy and chilly enough where a fire in the wood stove helped warm the cabin up.
The wood stove has a small burner chamber and the wood had to be cut again to fit.

The chimney needs to a good brush out from top to bottom.

The outhouse is getting full, pretty gross.

White Sulphur Springs is best enjoyed during the colder months in my opinion. Snuggling up in the cabin and freezing on your way to the warm tub, while enjoying the stars and silence of the forest, or the sea crashing on the beach. We visit a few times a year. This trip we found much garbage from previous visitors strewn about the grounds, in the bathhouse, and in the cabin. The woodstove needs repairs as well. And the wood storage is almost depleted. I suspect more visitors than usual have been visiting during the summer, and being less respectful. It won't stop us! Please pack out your beer cans folks!

This place is awesome. Don't attempt getting into West Arm or Mirror harbor without local knowledge. The bears are thick, bring an air horn and be bear aware.

It's amazing
