Birch Creek Cabin

This cabin was so much fun. There was wood stocked for the wood burning stove, and it was just secluded enough to feel like we had the whole place to ourselves, but only about 20 minutes from Dillon.

Our stay was short- only arrived around 3:00 day of stay and left at 11:00 next morning. It was crazy 60 mph cold wind and dusting of snow overnight. We didn't have time or weather to explore as much as I had hoped. We will definitely come back to hike and take the cool drives! The cabin is lovely, and always great to have electricity, range and refrigerator. We all gathered and spent the evening in the bedroom with camp chairs around the wood stove. The cook stove compartment in the kitchen is small and needs constant feeding. We enjoyed a short hike with the grandkids in the morning before packing up and heading out. I can see the creek would be great for the kids in the summer. Beautiful and interesting area. We will be back.

This is a very nice cabin. It was clean upon arrival, and cleaner when we left. Thank you FS for replacing the electric cook stove/oven....we were at this cabin in October 2021, the burners were iffy, and the oven didn't work at all. The new range/oven works great! We used the kitchen wood cook stove to take the chill off the room and also found that it worked wonderfully!
The pads on the bunks are a little hard, and the beds are noisy when rolling over and getting in/out of bed.....but, they are usable! The upper bunks could use a ladder at the foot for easier access for us older generation cabin users.
We did the short hike to Bond Lake which was an enjoyable hike.
We hit the fall colors perfectly, the aspens were in their full glory!!!

Beautiful little cabin, well stocked with dishes, cookware and a coffee pot. The description is confusing as it says electricity then it says no electricity. This cabin DOES HAVE ELECTRICITY. It has lights, an electric range with oven and a refridgerator. There was lots of wood in the storage. One wood stove in the bedroom and a wonderful old Monarch wood cooking stove in the kitchen for warmth and cooking. The fall colors were amazing, plenty of places to walk and hike. We had a great time and would definitely love to go back.

Really enjoyed seeing something new to us. Nice warm cabin when you can get the stove to work. We had a devil of a time lighting the cook stove in the kitchen and keeping it lit. A suggestion from us would be to have some directions available, easily seen, next to the stove for people that have never used one before. We use wood stoves all winter long but this one just didn't work for us. The wood available was sparce but enough for over night and the kindling might have been a litte damp, maybe some of our problem with the cookstove? It's awesome that a cabin like this is available to the public. We did stay at another FS cabin the night before, the price was way less. This one seems a bit spendy. The old CCC camp just above the cabin was very interesting. We will certainly visit the area again with more time to travel all the roads available.
