About Birch Creek Cabin

Birch Creek Cabin is a historic log cabin with electricity. It provides access to a variety of hiking, ohv, and for cross-country skiing and snowshoe trails (depending on the season). A vaulted toilet lies 100' west of the cabin. Guests can typically access the cabin by vehicle, depending on conditions. The roads leading to the cabin are gravel - but suitable for passenger cars (depending on the season and snow levels). The final quarter-mile may be covered with impassible snow during the winter, requiring skis, snowshoes or snowmobile to complete the route. There is a reliable parking area just off of the Birch Creek Road near the Thief Creek Bridge. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities.

Loved the cabin and the location. We were able to drive to the cabin despite snow, but I'd recommend having 4WD or chains. Otherwise it's about 1/2 mi walk to the cabin in the winter. Good cross country skiing out the door. Cabin is very basic but has most everything you need. Definitely a bonus to have electricity. No running water but there is a creek right next to the cabin.

Beautiful location and pretty easy to get to, even in winter, at least during our visit. Still plenty of solitude. There was ample snow for cross-country skiing, yet hikes were very doable as well. There was a fair amount of firewood and we kept the fireplace in the bedroom going as the low temp during our visit was -11F. The fireplace and down comforters kept us comfortable. The axe has seen better days and is one swing away from breaking. Next time we'll bring our own. The electric stove appeared brand new and worked well. No mice seen. We brought plenty of water. We really enjoyed the stay and look forward to visiting in different seasons. It was a great way to ring in the New Year!
