About Interrorem Cabin

Interrorem Cabin is located beneath magnificent stands of Big Leaf Maple trees, offering guests an ideal location for relaxation and recreation. The cabin was built in 1907 as the first administrative site in the Olympic National Forest. Emery J. Finch, Ranger and Hoodsport pioneer, built the cabin for his new bride, Mabel, and they moved in 1908. Today, the site offers guests a unique lodging experience year-round in Olympic National Forest. The cabin is accessible by car. Basic amenities are offered, but guests will have to bring some of their own supplies and gear.

Had a great stay and enjoyed the hikes in the area! The cabin was warm and cozy and was cleaner than we expected (no fresh mouse poop).

Watch out for rat poison! Although we ultimately enjoyed our stay it got off to an unsettling start when we found unmarked sticks of rat poison loose in the dresser of the kids’ room and after a thorough search 11 other places easily accessible to children (but not easily noticeable to adults). The sticks (Fastrac Blox - we found the bucket under the sink) look like purple sidewalk chalk. I don’t know if they were left by the USFS or by another guest but it seems like something families who stay in the cabin would like to know. The handbook mentions that there may be rat poison on-site but it lists a different product. The way this particular poison is being used appears contrary to the indications on the product’s safety data sheet which says, among other regulations & warnings, that it must be in a locked, labeled, child-proof container marked POISON and accessible only to the target animal and notes that it may be fatal if ingested or absorbed through the skin. On the plus side, we didn’t hear any rodents so it seems to be working?

Gear cabin beautiful. Very crowded parking lot, one guy gives mushroom tours every day from there expect the parking lot to be completely full by 10am and then die out in the afternoon

The location is close to many amazing trails and has unique history. However, I do not recommend. It is spooky and close to a trail head parking lot so many times when you’re in the yard, hikers stare at you and you don’t feel like you’re in a private cabin in the woods. The swimming hole nearby was the best part. We left early due to feeling unsafe.

Cozy cabin!! Beautiful place to hunker down for a rainy weekend. Close to hiking trails and not too far from coast towns. Very clean. Will be going back

Perfect weekend getaway. Easy to access, so many activities to do both inside (entire dresser of games!) and outside (trails out your backdoor!) , and I love the luxury of a propane fireplace and stove. Better than I expected.

This was a thoroughly enjoyable weekend, with clear skys and lovely nordic skiing conditions around the cabin. the cabin was in pretty good order. Interior temperatures were a bit cold, never got above the low 60s, but far and above warmer and drier than on the outside for this cold week. My only complaints were not against the cabin itself but previous inconsiderate guests. One previous visitor had stuffed garbage under the sink rather than packing it out, and someone had decided to fill the cabin's guest log with a whole plethora of highly political content. Free speech is great, but lots of people from all kinds of beliefs and leanings come to this publicly owned retreat to find serenity. So that kind of behavior, bringing all the divisiveness of the outside world into this beautiful place can greatly detract from the experience for others. Please be considerate and respectful of this place so that everyone can continue to enjoy it as much as we have!
