This charming cabin has clearly taken on a special place in the hearts of visitors who have contributed to the unique local decor. The interior is spacious and situated in a peaceful area that was recently affected by a forest fire, which currently limits the presence of local wildlife. Because the cabin sits near a popular trailhead, guests should be aware that it does not offer the same level of seclusion as properties with gated entrances. Despite the lack of total privacy, it served as a wonderful getaway, and the surrounding forests remain a joy to explore.

We always enjoy this cabin. New beds and fresh paint, thank you! It was a great weekend!!! It does need a new fire extinguisher. We didn’t need it, but the one that is there is empty.

The cabin warms up quickly with the stove in the middle of the room. The only downside is the lack of lighting - come prepared!

It is really great to get away to a place from the past with no running water or electricity, or most importantly, internet. Bar Gultch is just such a place.
