About Ben Rover Cabin

Ben Rover Cabin is located 35 mi north of Columbia Falls, perched near the Wild and Scenic Flathead River. The rustic accommodations provide a delightful setting for photographing scenery, viewing wildlife and enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature. The cabin also provides access to a variety of activities, including hiking, fishing and boating the river. The cabin is generally accessible by vehicle, however, in winter, four-wheel drive vehicles with chains are strongly recommended.

Very quiet, very warm with wood stove.
One mouse in trap. Deer walking by, elk in the field, bald eagle flying up the river.
Good to get away from the internet and the news.
It was like a retreat to gain some peace

Clean, warm, quiet, almost full moon.

The previous renters had left some of the propane lights on. The area was fairly hot around those lights. Maybe not a concern, but thought worth mentioning.

There are too many tourists in the area, don’t bother coming. The tack on fees from this contractor (Booz-Allen?) are ridiculous. The USFS is wonderful, gov’t contractors aren’t. This cabin was once used by my wife’s great Uncle. Good -lace to ‘shroom. Hmmmm, did I mention too many people, and they improved the road in unfortunately.
