Patterson Guard Station

The Cabin was immaculate, well stocked and cozy. The view intense, inviting and serine. Though the water was shut off and we had to use the outhouse, you couldn't escape the beauty of the mountains. The trails were totally enjoyable and the ambience of the rain during the night enhanced the beauty and warmth of the fire from the woodstove. Totally in love with Patterson Guard Station :0} 9/2023

Good paddle boarding at nearby Blue Lake. Nice 9-mile gravel road loop with 1k elevation south of cabin. And of course, the Summit Trail in the South Warner Wilderness. Cabin is very nicely fixed up. Our second trip here. This is the nicest of the various rec.gov cabins we've stayed in.

We thoroughly enjoyed the guard station. We did not enjoy the outhouse. We ended up walking to the adjacent Patterson campground to use the butter maintained pit latrines there.

There were no plates and limited eating utensils. There is no can opener.

A bit of a drive but beautiful location and secluded. The cabin is awsome and the vicinity peaceful, very rare to see anyone to disturb you! One thing noted was that the cabin floors were not very clean but what can you expect with a wood stove to keep you warm. Thank you for providing a journal, pretty fun to read on rainy days which is another pleasure. Thank you Warner mountains! Love Miss Debbie and Granny :0}
