Crandall Creek Cabin is probably the cleanest and most modern of any cabin I’ve ever stayed at. Even the vault toilet has a covered porch. It has 3 sets of bunk beds, huge dining table, and a stove.

We have stayed in this cabin a couple of other times and always enjoy it. The cabin was clean and had some supplies like propane stove and lantern, and a few pots and pans and utensils. There was a nice supply of firewood inside the cabin for the stove that we used to cook on as we didn't bring propane. The cabin is built with like 10" logs or better with six bunk beds and curtains. Whatever the forest service used for flies, it seemed to work. They died on the window sills but weren't annoying. The big difference for us was seeing the cabin in the open whereas it had been snuggled into the trees before. Regardless, the views are beautiful and the stay helped me to disconnect.

The cabin is great! There is huge lack of communication with the forest service, recreation.gov to the renter. There was a huge fire in that area July-August of 2021. Almost burned the cabin down. The pictures on recreation.gov are totally misleading. The fire burned right up to the cabin, thanks to the firefighters who saved the cabin. All the trees are cut down around the cabin. On the information for the cabin, there is a corral for horse, not anymore, it burned down. No communication of this. I called the forest service in Livingston twice and they insured me the corral was good and no mention of fire last year. The forest service and recreation.gov need to talk with the people that are working out in forest to get the correct information. I guess bottom line is, you call the forest service for information and they basically have no clue what is going on.

My family and I XC skied in on March 14th for a night. We were worried there may not be enough snow, but after
the first 1/2 mile it was great. We did get our truck stuck in a drift about 4 miles to the cabin...so consider parking when/if you hit a snow drift as they are patchy. We got to the cabin just before a snow storm hit. It took a couple hours for the cabin to warm up, but then it was cozy through the night as we tended to it every few hours.
We heard a pack of coyotes that approached the cabin and they ran around it several times, yipping, howling, and barking. It was pretty exciting. A great trip!

Ski in was lovely! We started about 4.5mi from cabin on 3/20. Dead flies littered the sills and floors but were not bothersome after we swept them up. Cabin was otherwise very clean and well kept. Terrific large space, including big table for meals and games. Thank you!

Absolutely gorgeous scenery, on the walk in and at the cabin. We went in Late February, and were prepared to snow shoe in 7 miles, however, it only ended up being 5 miles. Took us about 2 hours. Very clean ang huge cabin. The stove is small so be prepared to have to wake up to feed it every 1.5-2 hours during the night in the winter.

Location Crandall Creek Cabin
Address:
5242 Hwy 89 South
Livingston, MT, 59047
United States
Crandall Creek Cabin is located approximately 24 miles northeast of Wilsall, and 52 miles from Livingston.
From Livingston, travel north on Highway 89 to Wilsall. Turn right from Highway 89 onto Shields River Road. Follow Shields River Road past where the pavement turns to dirt and continue straight approximately 5.5 more miles to a fork in the road, and take the left fork towards the Shields River Camp (approximately 2 miles to the camp). About 100 yards beyond the campground, take a left onto a gated road. The cabin combination code will open the gate. The cabin is located 200 yards down this road. Due to road conditions, a high-clearance, four-wheel drive vehicle is suggested.
From Dec. 2 through March 31, the last seven miles of the access road to Crandall Cabin are not plowed. Plan to ski, snowshoe or snowmobile this distance from the end of the plowed road to the cabin. It is recommended that winter renters carry topographic maps and compasses for navigation, since the route maybe wind-blown and difficult to find. Signs may be down due to weather conditions or vandalism.
