Wonderful location and space! We had an amazing weekend. The only hiccup is that someone without a reservation was already in the cabin and insisted they also had a reservation when we got there. This was not true. After traveling a half hour back down the mountain to get cell service to call recreation.gov, the “squatters” eventually came down (we saw them drive by) and we went back and enjoyed our weekend.

nice location, but, not as clean as most other forest service cabins in which we have stayed, everything in kitchen pretty greasy. We tried to clean it up as best we could

The kitchen and stove were very dirty from the previous guests. There was cut firewood but no maul to split the wood. The couches could be replaced with something you don’t sink to the floor in when you sit down.
