I would have appreciated a recreation.gov email including the code to the locks to get into the ranger station. I was unable to get into the building and camped outside instead. I still had a great time, but I don't understand why the lock code wasn't included in the online reservation confirmation.

Experience was great, it’s nice that everybody treasures this place and takes pride in cleaning and keeping things looking great.
Be prepared for cool nights ,and a few cattle 🐄 wondering in.

Everything was fine, but do not triple the fee.

Even the Locals Love it!
We live right nearby and we came here for a fun fall birthday evening. It is cozy and clean, inside and out. The rest room was sparkling and the fire pit is just perfect. We brought our wood along and there was some already there as well. Likewise we had our own dishes but there is a bit of everything you need in the cabin. And it warmed right up while the stove heated our chili dinner. We will be back!

My family enjoyed our stay at the ranger station. My 16 year old said the night sky was more spectacular than home (and we live in a rural area with a beautiful view). My 14 year old said the quiet was perfect. 12 and 10 year old enjoyed exploring around. My husband LOVED the stove and cooking on it.
The cabin was great, but sleeping was rough. It said it slept 6 people, but that meant two people to a twin, and the top bunk had no railing. Other than than it was a beautiful experience and we would recommend to our friends and family.
