Such a cool spot! Went here in the Winter, parked and snowmobiled in. Had a great time with family and friends. Plenty of bunk beds, table space. We didn’t spend a lot of time outside, because it was so cold. One person in our party went cross country skiing. Cozy cabin, would definitely return.

We loved our stay at Big Creek! The trail in was pretty well packed and did not require skis for the 1/4 mi or so walk to the cabin. Be aware there was only one pot and one large pan for cooking food. We are accustomed to the huge variety of cooking and kitchen stuff brought into cabins and this one was definitely spare. That said, this was by far and away the cleanest cabin I have ever stayed in! Definitely will be returning! Also suggest whomever goes in next brings along an extra set of sock-style propane lantern mantles- we replaced the ones that were there but there with our own.

Excellent cabin with two wood fired stoves (one for heating and one for cooking) and lots of wood provided by the forest service.

This cabin was fabulous! We had no trouble keeping it warm as long as we kept the fire stoked. We enjoyed sitting on the porch enjoying the morning sun. The road can get a little juicy, take your time and watch for oncoming traffic and watch for wildlife! We were lucky enough to have a mountain lion run in front of us on the road for about 20 ft. We only hiked up the road but next time want to spend more time investigating the trails. A truly wonderful experience and won't hesitate to book another week!!
