Less than a mile from the ferry, and part of a nice hiking loop along the shore, up to Echo lake, and back. There was a gale when we stayed so we were very grateful for the warm cabin!

Staying here was one of the most peaceful, grounding experiences I’ve ever had. The cabin is filled with little trinkets and extra supplies others have left behind. It’s a short bike ride to the water spigot, and right across the main trail from a gorgeous overlook of the beach. The propane grill was so nice to have since it had rained the whole time I was there and doing a campfire wasn’t going to happen. It was a magical experience!

The cabin was well maintained except for issues with the heater. I called and spoke with whomever also gave me the entry code. He provided some guidance, but we ultimately suffered with temperature control the entire night. There were many statements in the guest book about similar issues, so it really should be taken care of. Also, the bunk bed mattresses were extremely uncomfortable. Other than those two issues, we appreciated having a place to rest besides our tent. The location of the cabin was perfect and we enjoyed the quick walk to the shore to enjoy the sunset!
