About Meadows Cabin

The historic Meadows Guard Station is a quiet hideaway beneath tall pines, where deer graze in the open meadow pasture nearby. Located 29 miles from Alpine, the cabin allows horses and provides corrals. Built in 1933 by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), the cabin presents a year-round backcountry playground for activities like horseback riding, fishing, off-road vehicle riding and snowmobiling. From Memorial Day through Labor Day, guests have the convenience of a shower and flush toilet. Horse corrals are available, but horses cannot be turned out into the pasture.

If you want to get away from everything and relax, this is the place. Very peaceful, only sounds of nature. We'll come again!

Really needs to have a propane heater to help but once you get the fire roaring it heats up quick. Someone with less fire starting abilities would have a hard time with it as it was a tricky fireplace

The meadows cabin is the nicest (relative to Cazier/Labarge) I've stayed in on the B-T forest so far. It felt like there was more room with the kitchen in the back room. We saw moose and calf on the road and tracks of a few other wilds up the canyon west of the canyon. Each of the cabins I listed has pots and pans that have been left behind. If you bring these items please don't leave them behind as there are already plenty of used pans already. Wood is under the snow beneath the trees. Don't run over the buck rail fencing in the winter time. Take care of it so that we can continue to enjoy it.

We spent a lovely July week here, the wildflowers were blooming everywhere. The cabin itself was decent and had the comforts of flush toilet, running water, shower, and propane range, fridge, and lights. The wood stove kept us warm at night when it got down to 40 degrees. There were plenty of logs for splitting outside, and when we stayed there was also a lot of dish ware and cooking pots, even percolators and utensils. The rangers come by here and there to care for the horses out back and they were helpful. There was some light ATV traffic and the rangers but for the most part the cabin is well-secluded and peaceful. You can't see any "neighbors" (like the ranch that is somewhat near by) and can only hear occasional trucks passing on the dirt road across the river. Good shade, caught some trout in the river, awesome stargazing.

Cabin worked out great for a November camping trip. The only rental cabin in the area, I was surprised it was available.
