Cummings Cabin

We had a great time at Cummings Cabin. Beautiful mountain scenery with river and stream nearby. We will be visiting the cabin again for a relaxing getaway!

We spent a nice week in July 2019. The cabin is in a secluded area with no traffic going through. A good water pump just feet away provided our water and the propane was a plus for lighting and cooking. We came for the fishing and left very pleased.

A FS recreation person provided fire wood, which made for a nice night.

This cabin is a perfect base for exploring surrounding trails and rivers, including the continental divide trail. it has everything you need for an enjoyable trip and the location is perfect. My favorite cabin experience yet!

The area is beautiful and secluded with the exception of a few 4 wheelers and a jeep using the public access road next to the cabin. It was nice to be able step right out the door and go for a hike. Woodstove worked great. Also nice that there is a water pump and clean outhouse nearby. I will definitely stay there again.

Beautiful spot, we had great snowy weather and did a nice hike up the ridge behind the cabin. Thank you forest service!

Directions to the cabin were a little confusing. Follow the blue diamond all the way to the cabin. Great covered porch and lovely 3 room cabin. Three beds total for a total of 5 people along with 2 fireplaces. Cabin was clean and there was plenty of firewood. The locks were a little sticky, had to give them a strong pull to release them and access to the propane shutoff valve was tricky to get to with the snow melt from the roof. Beautiful area!

The pictures do not do this place justice!! The cabin is bright and cheerful inside, and what a treat to have a separate kitchen and bedroom! The water is uphill of the house, which was a challenge in the icy, windy, winter storm conditions, but we were still able to pump and transport water successfully in below freezing temps (it was probably 10-35 degrees F for our trip). The wood stove and propane lights gave a beautiful glow as we were able to sit back and relax while the oven cooked us dinner! We loved exploring all the trails behind the cabin, and even followed a moose's trail down the creek next to the cabin. Most luxurious forest service cabin trip so far, highly recommended!!

We had an awesome weekend getaway here! Such a beautiful area, and it got decent sunshine even with the trees. The wood stove was wonderful, propane lights were fun, and pumping water made us newly appreciative of indoor plumbing. There was enough snow to XC ski on the local trails, but we were still able to drive the truck to about 200yrds from the cabin. There were lots of signs of mice (droppings) when we arrived. Would recommend bringing your own cooking equipment if you’re driving in to make sure everything is clean. Also, for future guests- please empty the water buckets underneath the sink before you leave! The folks who stayed before us did not, so the water was very moldy/nasty when we got there. Otherwise a wonderful stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful cabin! Absolutely perfect for a getaway to unplug/unwind. Great area to walk/hike near cabin. We went early March. Be aware of the last 500 ft of driveway to the cabin. It's all slush, ice and mud and deceiving. 4x4 only. Other than that - we will be returning.
