About Mill Creek Cabin

Mill Creek Cabin was built in 1927 as a temporary lodging for traveling Forest Service personnel. The cabin can be accessed by vehicle year-round, though a four-wheel drive vehicle is recommended. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety. This cabin offers rustic accommodations with limited amenities, so guests need to bring most of their own supplies and gear for a comfortable stay.

Great location near trails and xcountry skiing. Plenty of chopped wood and kindling. The new stove keeps the cabin nice and toasty. Always a pleasure to staying at Mill Creek.

It was a nice stay. There was more traffic than in past years. I saw only a few mice droppings in the sink. Other than that it was clean. I do wish the deck had the posts at the end nearest the creek so kids or pets are more safe. All in all it was a good visit though.

It was just my daughter and I so we were very grateful there was firewood already split for us because it snowed while we were there. The road was easy and the cabin was clean. We thoroughly enjoyed listening to Mill Creek at night and we did carry bear spray to the outhouse. It was wonderfully peaceful and we were blessed to enjoy electricity and were thankful we didn’t have cell service because we wanted to be unreachable for a couple days. We did drive out to visit Chico Hot Springs but other than that we stayed at the cozy little cabin!

We went to Mill Creek Cabin in April not exactly knowing what the weather would be like. We were able to make a fire and cook outside - the rain and cold came but we were warm and comfortable inside the cabin. Snow covered the ground the following day. The cabin was exceptionally clean and the bunk beds were comfortable.
