Very isolated with few amenities.

Nice cabin if you like the very basics. You pretty much have to bring everything you need, and the road in can be muddy at times.

Overall pretty good. The mice still a problem, and they need to seal off the corner off where the roof and the floor meet properly (perhaps with wire mesh first then foam). The person that gave me the lock combination told me that there was a shed with wood in it, and there was not. There was just barely enough for the few days and only at night time to take the bite of the cold away while we fell asleep. Still a pretty good place to stay.

This place is amazing!!! The pics and description don’t do it justice. We wondered if they are trying to keep this place a secret. We seriously loved it! Clean, cute cabin! One main cabin with a loft, 3 pull down plank single beds, a table with benches, and 3 wooden chairs. Then there are two more additional cabins right next door that each have a double bed and table and more room for cots or whatever. Two outhouses. Two picnic benches near the campfire area. We had a great time! The kids loved it!!! They all fought over the loft. Super fun!!!

I was happy to see that my concerns from last year were addressed. There were only a few flies which we eliminated. Only caught one mouse and the wood stove no longer emitted smoke through cracked welds. We found the floor had been swept clean and the wood supply had been refreshed. There was a new first aid kit and the fire extinguisher appeared to have been serviced. We do plan to rent the cabin for next years hunting season.

Arrived as scheduled and caught 10 mice in traps that we provided. Suggest you add mouse traps that facility users should bring along.
The heating stove leaks smoke into the room. It should be replaced or repaired. The smoke comes from cracks in the body of the stove.
A mop would be handy to deal with the mud.
The wood supply was ample although it appears casual hunters are borrowing some of the wood.
There were a couple hundred dead flies on the floor. Much less that last years hunting trip.
In all we enjoyed the use of the cabin and plan to use it again next hunting season.

Clear Creek Cabin far exceeded our expectations. We just used the main cabin but it was nice and clean. The area was beautiful and provided much need chill and relaxation. The only suggestion I had was people must steal the axes to cut wood so take your own ax. I highly recommend it unless you want a Marriott.

Great cabin, as described. It takes a fairly long drive over a gravel road to get to the cabin, but you get plenty of space and privacy once you arrive.
