We found the cabin clean an the outhouse was close and clean too. We did have At least one mouse and were careful not to have food out. I would set traps next time. We didn’t really see signs of mice prior though. We hope to do this again. Thank you!

Amazing accommodations in such a beautiful place. Reorganized al the cabinets and enjoyed all the logs. Hopefully that toilet paper roll sticks it out for 2020 into 2021! Thank you!!!!

Beautiful cabin tucked into a small valley. Watch out for cows along the way. Highly recommend stopping at for a hike at Refrigerator Canyon if you are in the area.

This was definitely a highlight for us. The cabin was exactly as expected and the peacefulness of nature was incredible. Something to be aware of, as you climb the mountain the gravel gets sharper; we ended up puncturing a tire and had to put on the spare. Cell service is weak if non-existent, so be prepared for anything. Will definitely be booking for our next road trip through that region.
