About Moose Lake Cabin

Moose Lake Cabin is located in the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest in southwestern Montana. The historic cabin, which was built in 1917 for use as a Forest Service work station, offers visitors close access to the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness Area, which covers almost 250 square miles of mountain ranges. The cabin is a short drive to Georgetown Lake, Discovery Ski Area, Gem Mountain, and the town of Philipsburg with its well known Sweet Palace and microbrewery. Many lakes and streams provide ample access to world famous trout fishing and the area also boasts miles of roads and trails. The cabin is located a short walk from Middle Fork Rock Cr and is surrounded by public land in all directions. Hiking, backpacking, hunting, fishing, horseback riding, OHV riding, skiing, snowmobiling, and snowshoeing are common activites,  The cabin can typically be accessed by vehicle, depending on road and weather conditions. Moose Lake Road is plowed during winter, but the access spur to the cabin is not regularly plowed and guests should plan on walking this final 100 yards in the winter months.

We had a great time. It was myself and my dog. Super easy to get to. There was plenty of fire wood, the cabin was stocked with most kitchen needs. There were plenty of board games. The elk bugled from across the stream/river. A bald eagle perched in the tree the morning we were packing to leave.

Neat clean little cabin that has great access to Fishing and nearby recreational activities. Glad the replaced the mattresses this year. One of the best and easily accessible cabins in the system. Can be rather hot outside at times without nearby shade so bring a pop up canopy. Great access to fishing and hiking.
