About High Rye Cabin

High Rye Cabin is a quaint place to stay, ideally situated for exploring the northern Fleecer Mountains. An abundance of recreational activities are available in this scenic area. The cabin was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps around 1919 and is located in the historic mining district of German Gulch. It was used as an administrative site until the 1940s, when it was opened to the public. The cabin can be accessed by vehicle; however, during the fall, alternative resources may be required to reach the cabin. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities.

cabin was tidy when we arrived. There was some wood but suggest you bring some of your own.
Front porch was nice to sit on and relax. We did have some cow visitors, so we did put the rope up across
the entrance so we could enjoy them from afar.

Absolutely wonderful experience here. Everything was clean and tidy, the only problem was there was no Firewood, so plan ahead before arriving, less you have to drive back to Butte or Anaconda.

Cabin had a smell to it and beds were stained and gross. We camped in our tent on the grass and left as soon as we woke up.

Firepit was nice!
