What Guests Are Saying
Buck Park Cabin offers a beautiful, isolated setting with stunning views along the way, making it a great choice for a remote getaway. The cabin includes useful extras like a propane stove and a well-maintained outhouse, though it is rustic and could use some care. While access can be challenging, especially for vehicles, many guests appreciate the scenic trails and nearby creek teeming with wildlife.

Awesome cabin, FS had been up to clean for the last time that season a few days before. Tried to leave it super clean. Only stayed a couple nights as I tagged out on my elk hunt on day 1. Had a mouse but the hooks in ceiling worked for storing food out of his reach.

We enjoyed the stay at the cabin.I have been by it several times and decided to rent it with my wife. There was 9 teens camped there with as a work crew cleaning up old fence along the main trails.They didn't bother us at all.The trail getting to it was good as could be expected for the location.The national forest did good on fixing the trail.We would recommend this cabin for a remote getaway.The trail to the lake is a little rougher but when I go to the lake I use my 4 wheeler.Having the toilet there was a plus for my wife.I will be renting it again in the future.There is trails around with scenic views of the snake canyon.

This one is hard to review. Positives are that it is very isolated and in a beautiful area. Negatives are that it is definitely hard to reach. I went in on a big ADV motorcycle and it was a challenge. No cars are going to make it without some damage. The cabin itself is very small and bare bones. There are lots of cheaper cabins that are much better so I won't be back to this one.

The road is rough which my husband loved, but such awesome views on the way there. I couldn’t believe how much of the mountain had burned from the fire years ago. The cabin had little extras like a propane stove, playing cards, mattresses, broom, etc. It’s rustic and could use a little extra care. Outhouse was well maintained. Great fire pit. Bring your own bedding and pillow. Take a small hike, we saw 2 deer. Creek nearby is wonderful, even saw 5 trout surprisingly. We drove up the Cuddy Mountain Trail to the Overlook - stunning views. The road to Hornet Reservoir is pretty rough, but again it’s beautiful with nice areas to picnic or camp close to the water. I’ve driven past the sign to Buck Park many times and always wanted to go see what was out there, and I’m so happy we finally did.

This is a great place to spend a few days and this is our third trip to this cabin. One important health concern I have is that the cabin is heavily infested with white-footed mice or deermice and their droppings. The cabin could also use some restorative work. It has degraded significantly since our last visit two years ago, as well as a padlock for the front door. .
