Facility was low on many things.
- Bring extra of your own kitchen towels and washcloths, paper towels, some cleaning supplies.
Recommend bringing a sheet or something to put on the beds before you sleep on them.
There have been pack rats in the cabin. So make sure to keep all food in coolers and in cupboards, not out on the counters at night or when you leave the cabin.

The cabin was in good shape and stayed nice and warm in the January weather. Everything was in good working condition except the oven, which wouldn't stay lit. We skied to Bowman and to the Quartz Creek Campground, which was buried in snow but still a good long ski.

Ben Rover is a cozy get away with clean accommodations. Plan to pump your own water, navigate to the vaulted toilet in the dark, learn how to light the propane lantern lights and tou will enjoy this cabin.

The Forest Service needs to maintain this cabin. One of the rooms has a pack rat living in. The pack rat runs through the walls. If it was my cabin, I would take care of it. Otherwise, it would have been a great experience. You should be refunding moneys to everyone that had to deal with the lack of competence from the Forest Service.

What a cozy cabin! Rooms let plenty of sunshine. Kitchen was well stocked, easy to do prep and the stove and oven worked great! Living room was large, furniture was very comfortable. Beds were comfy. Enjoyed our long awaited stay at the Ben Rover.

Ben Rover Cabin is located 35 miles north of Columbia Falls, on North Fork Road (County Road 486). From Columbia Falls, travel north on Nucleus Avenue. Turn east at the stop sign, on Railroad Street. The road becomes the North Fork Road as it travels over the railroad overpass. At mile 35 on the North Fork Road, turn east one mile following signs to the town of Polebridge. Turn left (north) to Ben Rover Cabin which is a half-mile from Polebridge on the right. If you cross into Glacier National Park, you have gone too far. The majority of the road from Columbia Falls to Ben Rover Cabin is gravel, so be prepared for dust during your drive and at the cabin.
North Fork Road is gravel, intermittently plowed during the winter. A four-wheel-drive vehicle with chains is recommended in winter.
