What Guests Are Saying
Roberts Cabin offers an authentic early miner experience, with clean accommodations and a memorable visit from wildlife, like a bull moose. The rustic charm is complemented by useful amenities such as gas lanterns and the opportunity for outdoor activities, though guests should be mindful of rusted metal on-site. While there are some inconveniences like limited cell service and nearby traffic, the overall experience is enjoyable, making it a great option for families.

bring lots of wood with you, the walk to the outhouse is scary at night, it was slick on the bridge across the creek. Need lots of light with the shutters closed, so bring your heavy-duty sleeping bags hand wipes and cleaners and lights, no campfires outside, burn ban. the brooms there were worn out and no mop or mop bucket if you can't climb narrow steep steps then plan ahead, cots might be a good idea. wash tubs and cook stove also needed and full water jugs.

Beautiful location and neat history! Cabin is beautifully restored. Needs some TLC. A good clean, holes filled to protect from the mice, and new mattresses.

This was so cool. I have truly never stayed in a place like this. I also could not believe how affordable it was. I’ve spent more money on campsites. I could not recommend Robert’s Cabin more. The one thing is bring lots of lighting.
