About Whisky Camp Guard Station

Whisky Camp, built in the 1940s, was the summer home of a fireguard whose primary duties were to fight and prevent fires, serve as a relief lookout, and perform maintenance on phone lines and trails. Located in the Tiller Ranger District in southwestern Oregon, the cabin now offers relaxation and recreation for visitors throughout the year. Four-wheel drive vehicles are recommended for travel to this site, and guests must bring several of their own supplies. Please be aware that in winter months guests may need to snowmobile, ski or snowshoe up to five miles one-way to reach the cabin. Consider this winter travel advisory when making your reservations.

Be prepared for lots of down trees on the roads had to cut lots of trees out of the way, do not drive up from elk creek side you won’t get through. Sucks that people damage stuff like the two windows that are boarded up. If you have an upcoming reservation I recommend bringing some mantles for the lanterns as whoever was there last destroyed every single one in the cabin!
