Pebble Guard Station

The cabin was covered in dead bugs. Im not saying like there were a couple bugs in the corners of the room. Every single windowsill was not visible due to it being completely covered with bugs. You could not walk to the beds without taking a single step that would not step on at least 5 bugs. In addition to the dead bugs there were hundreds of flies flying around in the cabin. I requested a refund a week ago, still no answer. We booked a hotel in Lava Springs for the two nights we wanted to stay here. The propane lights also did not work.

Currently had no water. The cabin is private and away from road. There is not a lot of time spent in cabin during day since it is small, dark and hot. The view is amazing.

Cabin isn't set up really well. Isn't a lot of natural light in where the table and beds are so you don't want to hang out in there a bunch. Was dirty when we arrived. Beautiful area and conveniently located near Lava HS.

Could not make it to facility. Road was obstructed by over a foot of water/mud. Requires 4wd/high clearance. Not as advertised, and caused a night of infuriation.
Also, it took forever and a week for them to respond to several phone calls for the access code we were never able to use.

This is a great little cabin that suited our needs perfectly. They views are spectacular and it is close to some awesome trailheads.

new beds new outhouse , no heater ,broken ,

We usually have a great time. But not being able to use the propane for the lights or heat was no fun. By the time I was told about the propane issue it was to late to cancel the reservation. Spent one terrible night and came back home.

The cabin was great. Everything was working properly and it was clean. I would suggest lots of soft bedding in your pack in list. Other than that I was so impressed with everything. Loved it so much!

if you like dust this is your place , no screens on some windows so lots of bugs come in . hot water gas switch was not always working like it should , lots of atv noise from road ,,beds were dusty and uncomfortable ,hot in cabin and using appliances made it worse , used a battery fan but not much good it did but stirred up dust ,,lots of gnats biting us .only good thing was it had hot water and a shower that worked now and them with hot water , mostly warm had to turn it off and on every 5 minutes to get hot .needs a good cleaning .

I had a great stay at the Guard Station this past week, just myself and my two dogs. It's isolated, yet not isolated; the Big Springs Campground is nearby, in addition to private cabins and boondocking camp sites along the road. During the summer there are grazing cattle just around the corner and of course the always present ATVs that were mostly just annoying and didn't detract from my stay. The creek near the cabin is hard to get to as there is massive amounts of willows and the ground is soft under foot. You can access the creek much easier by going down to Big Springs or along the road on the way to the cabin. The amenities are as described, and worked perfectly: propane stove/oven, hot/cold running water, shower and propane lighting. There is limited cookware and dishes, I didn't use them but if I had forgotten something it's nice to know they are there.

Pro tip: bring a sleeping pad or other cushioning if you intend on using the bunk beds. I used doubled up sleeping bags and blankets and it was fairly comfortable.

There are lots of flying insects and mice can be a problem, although none were present during my stay, just evidence of prior occupation.

I was able to get a cell signal at the top of the driveway (t-moble) and was able to check my messages a couple times a day.

There is an old barn and corral area and a dilapidated workshop/garage that can be explored, in addition to the cow camp next door. During my stay there were plenty of wildflower blooming and tons of birds if you are into birding. if you bring your dog they will have a blast exploring and sniffing everything.
