We stayed in the west cabin. It was very clean. I appreciated the hot and cold running water with a full bathroom. The beds were comfortable. Only problem was a mouse. Only saw 1. but he made lot of noise.. We did the hiking trails there. So much history. It was interesting talking to the manager. We went to the Hiawatha bike trail. It was wonderful. I would defiantly stay here again.

Excellent facility for a small family or couple kitchen is well equipped. Beds comfortable (take a blanket to cover the plastic mattress cover or it gets sweaty). Nice ski tour over the bridge and up the road. Good downhill and touring ski routes at Lookout Pass 16 mi west.
