I came for the view and that is what we got. The vista is incredible and when you can take it in after nightfall and witness the sunrise the next morning it is unforgettable. Plenty of wildlife with deer, turkey, owls and other birds to view also. You have to remember that this cabin is rustic and basic. You do have electricity but no water or a modern bathroom at the cabin and you have to come prepared to support your stay with potable water and a preferred cooking method. There are hot showers and bathrooms at the Blue Bend Campground at the bottom of the mountain during the open season. The US Forest Service staff to include the campground host was extremely nice and very helpful during our stay. If you enjoy fishing, especially trout fishing you cannot find a better location. We were on ADV motorcycles and inquired with the US Forest Service staff of what point of interest did we have to visit and were advised we had to see Snake Rock. Locating and riding to this overlook was a challenge but well worth the effort.

Great cabin with amazing views. Was there during a cold front but stayed nice and warm. Wonderful firepit and grill. Good supply of firewood on hand. The vault toilet was very clean. Looking forward to the next visit!

We had a wonderful time at Hopkins mountain. The cabin was neat and there was most everything we expected to be there and there was enough firewood. Beauty obviously is in the location advantage this place enjoys. Sunset was beautiful.. as evening turned to night, stars that hide behind city lights and pollution revealed themselves in their full glory. They shined like golden flowers on the tall trees here, trees that shed their leaves just a couple of weeks ago. Trees glowed wonderfully as they reached out to the night sky to support what appeared like an umbrella of stars. And the patterns on the umbrella changed into more and more beautiful art as the night sky moved from east to west. A campfire, good food, family and just the night and the nature. What else can we ask for !! Woke up early, started the campfire and enjoyed the sunrise as the sky changed colors until the sun appeared bright and smiling above the horizon. A memorable experience !! Highly Recommend it !!
