Second time here. Compared to other forest service cabins, this one is well maintained with a shower (new shower head) propane heat lighting and fridge. As always I cleaned the glass on the wood stove. Greys River road is a well travelled thorofare. In dry weather the dust from the road hangs thick in the air.

We love the cabin! This is our 2nd time at deer creek. We came early in June and missed the horses. The woodpecker in the wall made the stay even more interesting!

An amazing spot. More well stocked than I expected. When we went, (6/22) the propane fridge wasn't working, but it wasn't a big deal for us. We kept the drinks in the ice cold creek and kept the rest in our cooler. Beautiful isolation.

Deer Creek is a great little cabin located in a beautiful part of the forest, with amazing views from the front porch. It's right off the FS road and easy to get to. Something to keep in mind is that the kitchen is very small and contains few pots/pans/utensils, so be sure to bring what you need to prepare meals. There is plenty of wood for the wood-burning stove, as well as a propane heater and lighting. The bathroom with shower and hot water (when water is operational during the warmer months) is a major plus. The cabin is close to Alpine, WY which has a great grocery store for any supplies you might need. The FS has done a great job of keeping it close to what it looked like when it was built in the 1930's and has a lot of charm. I've stayed in a number of these FS cabins in various regions, and this is among one of my favorites for access, beautiful setting, historic architecture, and amenities.

This is a lovely property with a ton of room! Initially I thought this was one of those cabin communities with like 6 cabins in a loop, but no it’s just a single cabin with a good plot of land.
There were two picnic tables, an out house, two sheds, an OHV trailhead, fire pit, large stack of cut wood for use, and the cabin itself.
WARNING: YOU NEED A CODE to get in. I had gotten a lot of emails saying I would get a final email 4 days before with a code but I never saw that email. So before your trip CALL THEM to get the code. I never saw the inside the of the cabin but the lot was beautiful and I’m excited to come back and try again!

The water is not available on early June, 2024. And the mattress had a lot of hairs on it
