Kings Hill Cabin offers a cozy and comfortable stay in a beautiful setting, with easy access to hiking and snowmobile trails. Guests appreciated the electricity, full-sized fridge, and the lovely views from the front porch, especially during sunsets. However, some issues were noted, including cleanliness concerns, lack of internet, and maintenance needs, such as a smoky wood stove and a broken roof from a fallen branch.
There is no sign for the cabin so it took us a long time to find it in the dark. There were rat traps and an entry in the guest book indicating someone had seen a rat weeks before our visit. We were awoken by the rat gnawing on a log wedged into a hole between the kitchen and bedroom and dragging one of the traps! He kept us up all night and we decided to leave the next day. A bummer because it's a great spot otherwise
There was no toilet paper when we arrived.
There was also a large rat. We blocked the hole with a piece of wood, but then had to listen to the rat chew on the wood all night. We believe he is living under the cabin.
Over all - everything was good and we will be booking the place again.

The cabin was great. Very cozy and the perfect home-base for our hunting trip.
The people that were there before us - not so great. They did not refill the wood box, and did not pick up after their dog around the cabin.

Was wonderful having electric lights, a refrigerator and a stove/oven. There is an adequate amount of space with the two rooms. We enjoyed playing some of the games in the closet. It snowed and was so pretty - Our truck was able to drive right to the cabin despite the snow. The only drawback was a pack rat but traps were set. I would recommend this cabin .

From Great Falls, travel aproximately 23 mi east on Highway 87/89 and turn right (south) at the rest area/weigh station just past Belt, onto U.S. Highway 89 toward Monarch and Neihart. Drive approximately 50 mi to Kings Hill Pass. The cabin is on the left side of the highway just before the pass (within 300 ft of the pass).
The total distance form Great Falls is about 75 mi. During the summer season, visitors can drive directly to the cabin. During the winter season, there is parking on the wide spot along the highway, which is plowed.
From White Sulphur Springs, go about 3 mi east on Highway 12 and turn left (north) onto Highway 89. The cabin is just past Kings Hill Pass on the right. Total distance from White Sulphur Springs is 28.5 mi.
