What Guests Are Saying
Maxey Cabin is highly praised for its beautiful location, cozy atmosphere, and stunning views of wildlife and nature. Guests appreciate the added space from the bunkhouse and find the cabin easily accessible, although some mention minor concerns such as mosquito presence, ticks, and occasional mice droppings. Recommendations include improving directions, providing smaller firewood, and bringing personal cookware, but overall, it remains a beloved destination for visitors.

We have stayed several times at Maxey and it's awesome!. This time we did find a shortage of tissue in the outhouse; fortunately we had brought extra supplies. While we were there some skiers with their dog stopped on the trail that runs through the meadow below and after a few minutes decided to make their way up to the cabin. They told us they didn't think anyone was there, although smoke was coming from the chimney. They asked if they could eat their lunch at the pic-nic table and they were friendly enough so we said no problem (what else were we going to say?). While they were there they used the outhouse, which put a dent in our meager supplies and may explain why the usual ample supply of tissue was lacking. I suspect skiers know it is there and use it regularly. Anyway, I don't know how to remedy this. It's not that we're antisocial; we just weren't expecting company and were enjoying our solitude..

We had a fabulous time. As children my Grandfather owned this cabin and we spent years spending summers at the cabin.

Awesome deck to watch the stars and the mountains. Outhouse is made of cinder blocks and is super clean. A little stream runs through the property which was fun for the kids and dogs. The road up can be a rough ride, but it's not too long. Highly recommended.

Our 7 year-old daughter talks about our trip to Maxey Cabin six months ago. Beautiful views. Great trails for hiking surround the cabin and it's a short drive to lake, which has more trails and is great for paddleboarding.
