Antlers Guard Station Cabin

This cabin is awesome. Super place for hunting or summer get away. Couple of things, no oven and the refrigerator needs better outside venting. Bunk beds are super but only top bunk for lightweights. Location is outstanding and the cabin is very supplied in kitchen. Water is outstanding. Can’t say enough good about it

We really enjoyed our time at Antlers Guard Station--quiet, cool on hot days, well supplied, comfortable. We did let the Forest Service folk know that there were remnants of a mouse/rat problem (none detected currently).

Sweet cabin with a summer camp, bunk bed vibe. Futon not good for 2 plan around that (room on the floor by stove for the small mattresses if needed). Bring a lantern as the propane lights didn't all work and dont hang in right places for good reading or eating. Nice meadow and exploring and little creek. Dont tell too many people about this little place!

The older I get the harder the bunkbeds get, but this is a great cabin. Not too far from civilization, very well maintained, convenient propane amenities and potable water pump. Love the nearby creek. Surprisingly little wildlife, although that can be a plus when you're walking to the outhouse in the dark.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin is one of the few we were able to find that is still open during the Covid era. The well water was a huge plus, and the gas fixtures and lighting worked well. The house is well maintained, very reasonably cleaned, and well supplied by past visitors. (We restocked some items, added a journal and some other odds and ends.) We enjoyed the location, about 40 mi from Baker City, we recommend a day trip there with some Paizano's pizza (pet friendly patio by the way), the City Park in Baker City is great for kids. We also went over to Sumpter to check out the dredge. And we spend some time close to the cabin, exploring roads, trials, the nearby stream (North Fork Burnt River), and the ghost town of Whitney. The only negative mark for the cabin (making it 4 stars instead of 5) is that it is situated right on the fork of a road that does get a fair amount of truck and offroad traffic, maybe 2-3 vehicles per hour. If someone's wanting to "disappear" into remoteness, this isn't the cabin. On the other hand, the people nearby were great and help make you feel very safe in the area.

The only suggestion I would have is to include the lock combination on the confirmation of order once the payment has been received. This is the way it is done in the Malheur NF. I had a difficult time contacting anyone to get this combination before I left for a week in an area where there was no cell phone contact.
The cabin is a real jewel in an ideal location. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The USFS really has a wonderful program with these cabins, and I plan to return again and again
