Gordon Reese Cabin offers a stunning location with breathtaking 360-degree views of the mountains and Clark Fork River, perfect for wildlife watching and enjoying nature. The cabin is clean, well-stocked, and provides ample space for guests, making it an excellent backcountry shelter. However, visitors should come prepared with necessities like water and light sources, as some amenities may not be fully functional.

This is a treasure but be prepared to bring some necessities. If the solar battery is not fulling charged, you’ll be in the dark unless using the fixed propane sconces. It’s recommended to bring your own light sources & batteries. The battery operated lanterns at the cabin haven’t worked for weeks. Bring your own trash bags and perhaps a small bit of dish soap. There was none during our stay

Area is fabulous! Have been going for years. The cabin is in tuff shape 😟. Solar has not worked for 4 years. Tons of snow on roof and no attention to it. People come in thinking there is water—- not your fault but find it interesting. ?
No journal to write in. No paper. No pen. Stove is difficult to use as parts are missing. Could be dangerous. Does not have the care and charm it used to have 🫣🥴😟. Would always come back as it is our back yard. Lucky to call it home. It needs some TLC.

The kitchen needs a new can opener and the Host white board needs a new dry erase pen.
Otherwise it was all good.

I have stayed at Gordon Reese numerous times throughout the past several years. It is an amazing place to stay and for the most part well taken care of. Although there are solar lights, they weren't working which is fine if you remember to bring your own light. Lanterns and flashlights were available, but none had working batteries. We did use the propane lanterns, but one had the globe down, and the mantle missing. We appreciate the abundant amount of firewood, and the trash bags, pots, pans, etc...that are provided.
Again, a most wonderful stay, but need to stay on top of those things or add into the description - definitely bring your own lights.
