About Magee Rangers Cabin

Guests can imagine themselves as forest rangers when sleeping in the old ranger's quarters, and enjoying the superb views and convenient access to prime recreation trails. The Magee Cabin was constructed in 1922 as living quarters for the Magee District Ranger. The cabin along with several buildings at the site are on the National Register of Historic Places. These buildings may occasionally be occupied as temporary housing for Forest Service employees working in the vicinity.

What Guests Are Saying

The Magee Rangers Cabin offers a beautiful natural setting, ideal for birdwatching and family time, with a cool interior even in hot weather. While the cabin is clean and functional, it shows signs of wear and lacks running water, requiring guests to pack out their trash and walk to the restroom after dark. Overall, it provides a charming escape, but some maintenance improvements would enhance the experience.

The cabin was clean with a good stock of wood and plenty of gas powered lanterns. The plumbing was out, so the walk over to the other restroom facilities was a bit of a drag. The location has good access to several hiking trails with good views of the valley and there are trout in the creek that will cooperate. The yard and house set up were good for kids. We had great weather on one of the days and got to see five or six small planes land at the airstrip. The highlight of the trip was hearing elk bugle each morning around sunrise.

Pretty pricey for what you get. Still cannot use bathroom in cabin, which is really tough for little ones, really everyone, especially at night. For $100.00 per night especially. The birds in the warehouse also dive bomb you on you way to use the facilities. Had a homeless person hanging around too.
