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.

The perfect place to unplug for a night! There was plenty of firewood and the cabin was so cozy. The outhouse was clean (by outhouse standards) and we had everything we needed. We even spooked a cow moose when we arrived in the brush behind the cabin!

Fantastic cabin in excellent location. We loved everything - except the mice, but those are expected.

The cabin is clean and good shape. Someone has put very nice dinnerware in the cupboards, and the signs discouraging people from leaving stuff for others make for less clutter.

As always, this cabin is the place we go to unplug and enjoy nature. Its the perfect spot to relax by the creek, fire or under the porch. There is nothing like sitting there under the porch during a huge rain storm. Having electricity is a huge bonus. Have a fridge and freezer is so helpful. This time we even used the oven multiple days. Each time we have returned lately we see more upgrades have been made from new dishes to new mattresses for the bunks.
