Tucannon Guard Station

Cute little cabin, no AC, lots of screened windows and fans. The heaters work great. Charming kitchen, lots of pots, pans, cooking trays, cooking utensils, plates , cups, well stocked. The stairs are a doozy, watch that last one or you'll tumble at 3am like I did 😁😂.

There is another campsite next to it, but fairly secluded. What I love the most is while the core of engineer campgrounds haven't been allowing us to have fires. We were encouraged by the ranger to have a fire and to burn dead wood and leaves and other stuff we found in the fire ring.

The living room cabinet has lots of games in case you get bored or just want to have fun with the fam and friends.

We have stayed here multiple times and each time has been pleasant. I haven’t had trouble getting into the cabin, follow the directions like this website states and call the Pomeroy Ranger District prior to your stay. The fact that we’re “camping”, have HOT running potable water, electricity, and we’re warm and dry is a real treat. There is a queen-sized bed, a twin, and a bunk bed. The futon downstairs is comfortable too. I like to take queen/twin fitted sheets from home to put under our sleeping bags to make it feel more like home. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, pots, and pans. The fridge, freezer, stove burners, and oven all worked well. There are a couple space heaters to take the edge off if needed and even a microwave to spoil you. As for the cleanliness of the cabin, that is all dependent on the renters prior to your arrival. My recommendation is to leave how you would want to find it. This cabin is unique and full of character. The living room has lots of windows to enjoy the view and that warmed up cup of joe. There are two covered porches, the front porch has chairs for relaxing. The large yard with fire ring and two picnic tables is perfect for kids and dogs. There is plenty of parking and a short walk across the yard to the cabin. Several camping sites and a vault toilet are located nearby.

This was a great location and setup. Perfect for 6 adults and kids. Will definitely rent again.

Unfortunately the toilet was not working properly and the grass was overgrown. I understand it was before Memorial Day, we would have been happy to mow it ourselves so our children could run and play free. This was our first visit to the ranger station. We enjoyed a wonderful thunderstorm and great food using the kitchen appliances. We hope to be back again!

Wonderful cabin with the comforts of home! Property has two picnic tables, fire pit with benches, plenty of parking, bathroom with shower, large kitchen, living room, board games, and lots of trails/fishing access nearby. Despite being located near campsites, I felt we had privacy and noise separation from other recreation enthusiasts. Weather was perfect and we encountered tons of butterflies exploring the area!

The guard station was very roomy and provided me, in a wheelchair, opportunities to move about freely (except for the second floor). The bathroom was unusable because of its size, but an accessible nearby was available. The four of us enjoy our stay in a beautiful setting.

Cabin was great. Nice to have electricity and water!

We had a great time! The cabin was charming and cozy. We were all able to hang outside in the mowed yard during the day and gather around the dining table at night. We did find somethings to be left a little unclean, but we didn't mind cleaning them.

This is our second stay at this Guard Station. We enjoyed it very much.

Lovely place. Peaceful and relatively secluded.
