About Woods Cabin

Woods Cabin offers a unique chance to camp in the forest, in a rustic, old-time setting, while enjoying all the summer and winter activities that are available from the shore of scenic Lake Como. The cabin provides a comfortable experience and spectacular views, with its large windows and decks overlooking the lake and nearby mountain peaks. It also provides access to the lake and a nearby beach and gives visitors access to a myriad of trails and open spaces. IMPORTANT WINTER RENTAL INFORMATION: Woods Cabin is available for rent in the winter and provides a great basecamp for numerous outdoor winter recreation activities. To ensure your stay is enjoyable, there are a few things to note when renting the cabin during the winter. The road to the cabin is NOT maintained during the winter months, so depending on weather conditions, you may or may not be able to drive to the Woods Cabin parking lot. The gate is closed on the access road to Woods Cabin for public safety so that visitors do not drive down to the cabin and get stuck or slide into the cabin. The county road, however, to the boat launch (located on the south side of Lake Como) is maintained. Visitors can park at the boat launch and walk, ski, or snowshoe across the dam and up to Woods Cabin, which is approximately ¾ mile. Be prepared to haul your gear into the cabin via sled or backpacks. There is no drinking water available this time of year, so please bring your own drinking water. Firewood is provided at the cabin but it may need to be split. A splitting maul is also provided. Please be aware of rapidly changing weather conditions and always use caution and be prepared when recreating in winter conditions.

The cabin was so much cleaner than it was last year! The kitchen, especially, looked like it had been well cleaned (we were prepared to never go into the kitchen from our experience the previous year). Good job to whoever was there before us. The wood supply this year was so much better than last....some of it was even split. And, all of it was very dry! Not much snow and way too warm for skiing, the lake was no longer frozen for skiing. However, we were able to hike to the falls and had a great time!

I love this place. It feels like home. Its rustic and you should expect a cabin experience. We are lucky to have access to this and experience a few days of life on Lake Como. The open layout and views make the experience feel magical.

Both wood stoves gaskets were broken. It was December and I had 3 youngsters with me 6,7 and 7. We had to abandon ship and go home.

The prior renters were 5 that didn't report the problems to the Darby ranger station ( more then likely broken by these a-hole because they didn't report the problems ). THANKS - ELIZABETH, AUBRY, SAWYER, LIAM, QUINN and RYYS ( you know who you are! )

PLEASE ALWAYS REPORT NEEDEDREPAIRS ASAP SO THIS DOSENT HAPPEN TO OTHERS and please be kind restocking wood and kindling for the next renter.... Always leaving the cabins better the you found them.

This is an honor system folks If we all do our part, we can preserve these cabins for the generations to come.

Three stars for the amazing views! wish we could have enjoyed them.
