Amazing place! Perfect cute rugged place that has just the right amount of off grid (no electricity, no cell service) and amenities (gas stove, gas refrigerator, gas lights, hand pump well water, outhouse) for a couples getaway or pack a group of people in the bunks. We saw prong horn, mule deer, elk, and a few other animals. Views are amazing, lots of roads and trails, no other people for miles, great fishing near by.
My only “warning” is that the road in was washboard for a VERY long time. Well worth the slow beautiful drive! 11/10
