Mckeever Cabin

McKeever cabin is a a great place to get away for a weekend or a few days and unplug. The location is great for skiing and snowshoeing. The cabin is cozy and there was a nice supply of firewood for the stove. We hope to return again.

We had a great time! My only complaint would be signage. It was difficult to navigate from the parking lot to the cabin. Specifically, a "cabin this way" sign at the foreboding gate would have been immensely helpful and would have prevented us from having to back track in the dark. That being said I will plan on using it again.

idyllic rustic cabin set away from traffic and noise. Not having electricity is a small challenge but also a joy to have time to live the simple life. Too simple, however, is not having a chair with a back - only stools. How hard would it be to add a couple of folding chairs?

We've stayed twice at McKeever now and enjoyed the quiet and natural surroundings. The cabin is cozy and always clean and stocked with wood. We do recommend another sign at the summer parking area for those headed in during winter directing you toward the cabin since Google maps has it marked wrong. (go left through the gate!) Was a great location to enjoy skiing/snowshoeing, and we also got out to visit some waterfalls and the Eben ice caves.

The cabin itself was in good shape, and in a great location on the lake. Wood was well stocked. I do wish that you could use the access road to drive right up to the cabin (4wd could easily make it), but I suppose I understand their reasoning for it.

Unfortunately, the cabin has a mice problem. My friend and I observed at least 5 mice within the wood bin, climbing on the counters, and inbetween the panneling and the roof. I understand this is kind of the risk you take with a rustic cabin, and I am not at all upset with the Forest Service. Nothing you can really do. Increase their funding! But it is unnerving when mice are crawling around your head on the window sills in the middle of the night. Hopefully this gets taken care of before it becomes an even bigger issue.
