Girls weekend to get in some nordic skiing. So great that everyone had their own room. The room by the living room had the CO dector go off, probably doesn't have enough airflow without a window open. We had the wood stove going and the occupant had her propane light on as well.
We were so impressed by the cleanliness, the quality of furniture and the new floors are beautiful. Lots of good quality wood available. The kitchen was well stocked.
Would be nice to have a better stock of cleaning supplies, especially swiffer refills. Using a string mop that never really dries is kind of gross.
We did see one mouse which we caught with a trap-not unexpected.
It was a wonderful couple days.

We had a pleasant stay at Ben Rover. Nice to be close to the river for floating. We have stayed here and at Shnaus cabin a few times and I must say Ben Rover was very dirty this time. I'm not sure where it was in the cleaning cycle...I feel other guests are not doing their part when leaving.

There were mud puddles the size of swimming pools in the road & Polebridge bakery was closed, but we loved our time at Ben Rover. We have driven past many times & finally got to stay. What a cute & cozy cabin. Plenty of firewood was provided for the wood stove, the furniture was comfy, & the cabin was clean. We sat on the bench outside & listened to the river, we went snow showing several times, & we did a puzzle.

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.
