We really enjoyed our time at the dwelling. Everything was very clean. The screen door was damaged when we arrived but it was cool enough not to need the breeze so it was easy to just keep the door closed. Always a pleasure to stay at this location.

It was nice, but there is a hole in the floor that may be letting mice into the house. It does have electric outlets so you can plug into to charge devices. one of the issues I had was with the bunk beds. The mattresses are hard, and there were rails on both sides of the top bunk and no real ladder and it made it hard for an adult to get up and down the top bunk.

Large clean cabin with plenty of room for our family. Beautiful surroundings. We enjoyed a ride up along Skyline Drive. We'll be back.

My group stayed at the Orange Olsen dwelling during a week long OHV / fishing trip. The location was centrally located to all the trails and fishing spots we wanted to experience. The dwelling worked out very well for our group. We had plenty of room for all of our gear, the kitchen was sufficiently stocked with cooking / eating supplies, plenty of hot water for showers, and the beds were comfortable enough to provide a good nights sleep. Not having a refrigerator took a bit of planning, but we were able to buy ice on one of our rides to a nearby community. We are already planning our next trip and will most definitely stay here again.

T he dwelling was nice and clean. However we were given a heads up that the cooking range was out of commission. Instead we would have a camp chef. Also The refridgerator would not work. It had in fact been removed. It would have been nice to know and would have saved a trip to Castle Dale. Was not what we expected.
