This cabin was a real surprise. Private, cozy. But watch out for the mice. Found one in the back of the pickup two days later. Must have been in our gear. Check out the slag piles down the road. Also, check out the CCC camp just up the hill from the cabin. Educational.

We didn't have much snow for skiing, but enjoyed the trail out of the cabin up to Middle Peak. We also hiked the trails into Bond Lake, Deerhead Lake, and out to Dinner Station. All good. Our only concern was that there didn't seem to be a lot of firewood supply, unless it is stashed in the locked outbuilding. Other than that, great cabin and good time.

Beautiful location, nice cabin! We brought our own water and were glad we did, as the water system was down for drinking water. Other than that, wonderful stay!

lock was hard to open
cabin clean, no proof of mice till we got settled in, then we got 'em
The wood stove in the bunkroom needs the rope replaced, it was hard to keep an even heat going
will definitely reserve again

Great cabin, spacious, beats sleeping on the ground for sure. Very easy to get too. Nice hiking in the area. The kitchen stove was a little challenging to keep lit, but the bedroom fire place made up for it. It was cool a place. If you are not a camper and want to explore some outdoors this is the cabin.
