The accommodations at Sherman Guard Station and Bunkhouse exceeded expectations, offering a clean and comfortable experience with well-appointed cabins and beautiful surroundings. While fishing was challenging due to low creek levels, the location provided great hiking opportunities. Guests appreciated the wood stoves and the overall ambiance, although some noted the limited electricity and need for additional supplies.

The locations and accommodations were much nice than I expected. I little farther from Jackson Hole than I thought, but there was plenty of great hiking around the camp.

Always a favorite. This year the creek was very low and the fishing was challenging, but the cabin was clean. I did not go over to the bunkhouse at all.

This place was awesome and we were stoked that there were two cabins so we could share the spaces with our friends. It's still beautiful in the snow and the wood stoves were awesome. I wish there were some directions on how to run the propane heaters but other than that it was totally awesome!

Sherman cabin was extremely easy to get to. It was very comfortable and well appointed inside and very clean. The premises were very interesting. We enjoyed our stay and will return in the future.

Plenty of wood on site, cabin was well equipped, electricity was very limited (30-45min) but was nice to have while it lasted. Beautiful location would definitely recommend.

I really enjoy fishing from USFS cabins and Sherman did not disappoint. The cabin is well cared for and is close to the creek for fishing. There are very limited supplies at the cabin, unlike some that have a verity of staples, so make sure to bring your own salt and pepper or anything else you may need.

We took our family of 7 for a getaway in mid-August. The weather was beautiful, and we had a blast! It was quiet and peaceful. We visited the Daniel fish hatchery, took some scenic drives nearby, including following North Horse Creek to a quiet place for target shooting, and a trip up Skyline Drive above Pinedale for breathtaking views of the Wind River Range.
Gate has a coded padlock (there is also a keyed padlock, both are situated on the chain such that opening either will allow the gate to swing open).

I was left literally out in the cold with nowhere to stay because the Forest Service provided me with a code for a combination lock, but I arrived and discovered the gate locked with a padlock instead, and the Forest Service could not be contacted again. I would give this 0 stars if I could.
