What Guests Are Saying
The Moose Lake Cabin is a clean, well-stocked retreat with beautiful views and great access to fishing and recreational activities. Guests appreciate the comfortable beds, woodstove, and peaceful atmosphere, often enjoying wildlife sounds like elk bugling. While some mention issues with water quality and cabin walls, these are outweighed by the overall positive experiences and the cabin's rustic charm.

Beautiful cabin in the woods. Safe and dry through a week of rain.
Impressed with the coffee press included with fully stocked kitchen.

Such a lovely little cabin right near the river. Lots to explore down the forest roads. We will put this one on our list of cabins to return to.

We celebrated my 62nd birthday here and it was perfect. We caught a few fish and our grandson slept in a forest service cabin for the first time. I am sure we will do more of that.

Really enjoyed our stay, we regularly camp in the area and have wanted to stay at the cabin for quite a while, and finally did. A few things: 1) the maul and hatchet were VERY dull, so much so that they actually bounced off the wood, we couldn't cut at all. We had brought a chain saw and used that to cut wood. Split wood would be better for the stove, so next time we will bring our own tools, or maybe our own wood. 2) The cabin is pretty small, and with the bunk beds, table, and wood stove, it gets full fast. There were two of us and we were fine, but a group of four would be pretty cozy if you were stuck inside. 3) We were going by the stove instructions on the wall behind the stove. Later we found written stove instruction on paper on the wall by the door. It would have saved some effort to read the paper instructions first - we aren't wood stove experts. But it was very enjoyable, weather was great, a beautiful area!!
