Strawberry Cabin

This was the perfect cabin for a little snowy weekend getaway! It had everything we needed and the firewood was a great perk. The only thing that was a bit strange was that the glass of the front door looked as if it had been broken from bullet holes and the outer door didn’t close all the way. This let out a lot of heat and made the cabin seem less secure. Other than that it was great!!

Beautiful spot, easy easy hike to the cabin. 1-2 miles from the turn off. My biggest complaint is the cleanliness. It smelt like mouse pee and poo. There is a need for more pots and pans. There was 1 "pot" for melting snow and one teeny tiny pot for cooking. If you plan on going i would plan on bringing some lysol and a cooking pot.

The cabin was very well kept! Lots of firewood and clean! We enjoyed our 2 nights there.

Stayed here for NYE! Awesome experience, cozy cabin with a great wood stove. I have a 2wd with snow tires and made it to the gate without difficulty because there was hardly any snow. Highly suggest AWD or 4WD and good tires for winter access, the road condition is decent but there are tight turns and steeper uphill and downhill sections. Couple things to note: the splitting maul is one of the dullest I've encountered even for FS cabins but gets the job done (if you have files and sharpening skills, would serve it well), and there is no hatchet for kindling. Plenty of wood rounds in shed adjacent to the cabin. Cooking pots are limited to one small saucepan, and one small frying pan, best to bring your own bigger pots or pans if you plan on making a larger group meal. Counter top propane stove does have a griddle side and one burner. Supplies were somewhat scant, but I left a few essential things and an oil lantern that takes paraffin oil and left a 32 oz supply of oil. There's definitely mice but not an infestation I'd say- I did find a dish sponge left out in the open covered in poop- best to put these things and other food in containers or bags or locked away in cabinets. Don't forget garbage bags and disinfectant wipes as there's none at the cabin and maybe leave a few for the next folks :) Wonderful little cabin!

Overall, this cabin was wonderful. Very clean, amazing views with windows on all 4 sides, and great cabin. The indoor stove was top notch (didn't leak and very clean). The only reason this cabin didn't get 5 stars: the traffic that came up to the cabin was excessive. I even had a couple park directly in front of the cabin and walk around the cabin at sunset to "see the sights". It was very inconsiderate. Most others saw that I was there in front of the cabin and they turned around and left. But there only option was to turn around at the cabin or awkwardly turn around before they got to it. There should be access to the renter to close the cabin to deter others from coming up that 1 mile of "driveway". Without the constant bombardment of vehicles this would be a 5 star cabin.
