About Horse Prairie Cabin

Horse Prairie Cabin is a fairly large, two-room cabin situated on the edge of beautiful Horse Prairie in the southwestern corner of Montana. Forest service work crews used the cabin for lodging in the past. The cabin is available year-round and provides access to abundant hiking, biking, skiing and snowmobiling trails. It is equipped with a variety of amenities, providing guests with a somewhat comfortable and adventurous experience in the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest. The cabin is accessible by vehicle, depending on conditions. Excessive snowfall may require skis, snowmobiles or hiking for up to six miles of the route. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities.

Easy to find. Cozy cabin. Hard beds. Nice having stove and lights. Found one dead mouse. Heard a bear in the brush below the cabin. Very pretty views. Great intro to FS cabin. If the prairie fever starts affecting your family too bad, there is a prairie stage stop restraunt open 20mins from the cabin.

Nice cabin. Road was good all the way up, plenty of firewood & propane for the stove. No water this time of year, just be sure to bring your own.
Thanks USFS!
