Horse Prairie Cabin

BEWARE! FS doesn't stock the woodpile.
We enjoyed our stay for one night and two days at this cabin. It was very clean and no sign of rodents, despite reportings of such in the log book. Only 1.4 mi ski into this sweet cabin. The landscape is beautiful! We had high winds when we xc skied in, pulling sleds behind us. I had called the ranger station ahead of time to learn about road conditions. Fortunately, I asked about wood also. The FS person told me that the wood was low and we'd need to bring our own. (WHAT? I've never experienced this in all of my cabin rentals). We brought our own firewood, but because of cold and high winds, we burned thru it and left a day early.

Overall, good stay.
Would ask FS to update the web descriptions to be more accurate on what is provided at cabin (6 bunks, not 4; Propane provided so don't bring as indicated, and any other differences).
Cabin plenty warm for late October, wood adequate but some pretty gnarly. Trapped 4 deer mice while there so be Hanta aware-
BTW, phone service was excellent on Verizon and even my AT&T prepaid.

Road going up was very rough. Place is beautiful and running water in the sink is very nice. Antelope in the yard and gophers all over. Also, thank you to whoever left the bottle of Pendleton. It was much appreciated. 😉

We had a great time at the cabin. It was nice to be able to find a cabin to sleep 6. The only thing that was a bummer was that the water wasn't turned on.

This is a very well-appointed FS Cabin in a remote area of the Beaverheads. You will need alternate modes of transportation the reach the cabin in winter/spring. It is a mile+ uphill road to the cabin from the nearest plowed road.
