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.

A quiet cabin in the woods at a trailhead- a really nice place to stay. The instructions tell you that there is a lock on the driveway gate and another pair of locks on the back door of the cabin. We found only a single lock on the back door of the cabin and it used the code we had been sent for the gate lock that wasn't there. There were mouse droppings in the lower kitchen cabinets but we didn't see or hear any mice. Propane gaslights work as long as the mantle is intact. Close curtains to help the propane fireplace warm the place up but don't expect it to get much warmer than 65 or so in early spring.

The cabin was a lovely get away. Very clean and comfy. The propane lights are really cool. When we were there the one in the kitchen wasn't working. We'd brought a lantern and there was another light source as well in the cabin so it was no big deal. We didn't hear or see any evidence of mice on our trip. The stove kept us nice and warm. Being off season it was very quiet around the cabin. i could see how you could get a lot of lookie-loos in busier months as it's right at a trailhead. I will come back here again.

This was our first trip to the cabin, the kids gave it a thumbs up for a return visit. The cabin itself is so cute and has the just right feel of comfort and rustic. The previous person left it clean. It was very fun to experience life without electricity or running water. The only disappointment was that the water pump wasn't working. Had I known that I would have brought disposable dishes to lessen water needs and I would have planned meals that did not rely on boiling water. There were empty plastic jugs under the sink and we used those to bring water back from the Rangers Hole and after boiling the water we had hot cocoa and let the rest of the water cool overnight for drinking. My old bones had a hard time sleeping on the very hard futon. The hikes to Murhut Falls and the Ranger Hole were just right for my old bones as well. Teenage kids loved it. Best part was unplugging from all technology.

We had such a blast days in this cabin- very cozy and room for more if they prefer to sleep on the floor. I really enjoyed the pictures inside the cabin and the way our ancestors used to live. Very rustic place

Heater didn't work so we left. Luckily they gave us a refund but it was annoying to go all the way there and have to turn back and go home.

We've stayed here many times over the past 30 years. It's definitely gone downhill a bit since we first started visiting: no more refrigerator, fewer working propane lamps, no trash cans, and some comfy chairs have come and gone. But it's still a great place for a getaway in the woods. We had some difficulties with the heating stove, but managed to keep it running until a Forest Service employee could come out with a replacement battery - thanks USFS!

Great spot. Bring a cooler and you’ve basically got a fully functioning kitchen. My family loves this spot!
