VerifiedOctober 7, 2023 • Stayed at: Patterson Guard Station, Loop: 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
