Magee Rangers Cabin

It would be 5 stars if the septic system were repaired where the bathroom in the cabin could be used. It worked on our first visit several years ago but hasn't worked since. It is inconvenient to walk 2 bldgs over for the bathroom with little kids not to mention the middle of the night. Please please please take some of the rental money you make off of the cabin and fix it, move the septic to a different location, whatever it takes! Otherwise, a great time to be had at this special place!

It was filthy and unkept; we found food and pet hair in the couch cushions. Clouds of dust came out of the curtains when we tried to close them, plus one curtain was torn. We were informed ahead of time that the bathroom did not work due to septic issues. Also, the backup bathroom was sketchy for cleanliness and the shower there did not work either. We did appreciate having a refrigerator, which ran on propane; however water was leaking from somewhere in the refrigerator. The glass globes around both gas lanterns were badly cracked. Although 16 forks were listed in the inventory we only found two to use. We were glad additional members of our group could not make it. All this for $150/night! If this was reinvested in the cabin we wouldn't mind the cost. Overall, we were disappointed with this experience as we had stayed here over 20 years ago when it first opened and at that time we were very pleased with our visit.

Been going to Magee for years and years. Wish they could fix the water issues; shower, toilet etc. etc.

The water in the warehouse worked fine at first, then the toilets failed to fill on their own and finally, the water failed to work altogether. This with the highest water tables in years. Interestingly enough, the water worked great a few years ago, when it was almost 100 degrees every day, dry, and the fire-spotting aircraft were taking off next door. If work isn't done on the cabin, especially the doors and floors, everyone will lose out on this cabin that has such great potential and a great location. Work and upkeep must be done to preserve this truly historic venue.

Lovely place except for the mice and or rat excrement on all furniture, a lot of activity at nights in the walls as well. We spent hours cleaning sleeping rooms and kitchen enough to cook and sleep. Gas stove disconnected, no heat. Bathrooms and shower in another building and hot water was a blessing. No rodent droppings there. Bring all your own bedding and extra sheets, we kept everything including bedding in car when not in use. Also no signs of rodents in three days other than the sound of them in the walls.
