About Fox Creek Cabin (MT)

Fox Creek Cabin is a former ranger station located in a remote area. It is very small and offers only basic amenities. Guests will need to bring most of the gear and supplies they need to have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The cabin is located in a non-motorized area and can only be accessed by a 2.5-mile hike during the summer months, from the end of Langohr Road. A four-wheel drive vehicle is recommended for driving on Langohr Road. Winter access to the cabin requires hiking, skiing or snowshoeing about six miles from the South Cottonwood Trailhead.

Cute little (tiny) cabin in a quiet spot. There was no propane cook stove but a new propane lantern. Plenty of pots and pans but no plates, cups, or bowls. A few old forks. Take your own kitchen stuff. Flies are bad but easily cleared out and once the windows get opened the live ones clear out. If you hike in or out via Cottonwood Creek plan for lots of foot/bike traffic and dogs. Cottonwood Creek trail past the cabin to the basin is worth hiking.

The cabin is SMALL, but great!
The stove is certainly big enough to heat the place, but dry wood is a must. The wood collecting is the responsibility of the renters. Dead and down is what can be used. With at least 3 feet of snow around the cabin, that’s a bit tough! We were fortunate that the previous renters left split wood inside the cabin, but still it was hard to get a fire going. We ended up putting some of the wood on the stove to warm it up. We found that looking around in the trees for any branches with dead needles and small dead limbs worked quite well as kindling. The mattresses on the bunk bed were comfortable and of good size for a bunk bed. The little table is quite functional, but solid wood or thick metal would be easier to clean. A bit of repair to fill the cracks in the walls could improve the temperature in winter.
We very much enjoyed our stay at the cabin. We hope to go again.

Cabin has covered mattress pads - bigger/thicker than a camping pad - so no need to pack those in. Also has a good saw. Bring something essential to leave! TP, new journal for the cabin is needed, new kettle would be good. Thanks to whomever left us plenty of wood for when we first arrived! We of course replenished. We're lucky the United States Forest Service provides places for those of us who like to go further into the wild.

Remote cabin. Moose scat scattered around, but no sighting. Creeks nearby. There was some people/dog food left in the cabin which can encourage mice which carry hantavirus. Lots of firewood and downed trees nearby - no need for a fire in late May. An outhouse is nearby. The bunks aren't the most comfortable, but satisfactory.

Fox Creek was a serene little place in the pines. It had all the comforts (woodstove, bed) to stay nice n warm, even by myself in early October. There were many flies wanting to hangout, but no other creatures. I hiked in from Langohr and it was an easy, pleasant 2.5 mile forest saunter down grassy meadows, through tall trees running by a creek surrounded in yellowing leaves, and around a bend into the corner of the woods nestling this lovely little cabin. A creek flows nearby, allowing for easy access to water, and birds sang in the treetops above. There were hatchets and an axe there so you could easily find wood to chop outside. There were the basic cooking amenities neatly stacked on the walls, like oil, spices, some random utensils, a lighter, fuel cans, and other basics like a deck of cards and some cabin notebooks. It was a great stay for some glamorous "camping" out in our Bozeman backyard. I'd highly recommend this excellent little getaway for a night or two out in the quiet, to listen to your brain again.

This is a great little cabin! We came over History Rock and got it just as it got dark. There was enough wood, we just had to cut it down smaller to actually make any heat. The stove may have a dirty flue as lots of smoke came back inside any time we added wood.
