I've stayed here before and had no problems. This year the cabin seems to have gone downhill 😕 the fridge was so dirty and smelt foul the cabin itself was dirty. Also there is a huge mice problem to the point you can hear them all night. I saw at least 7, there's mouse droppings all over kitchen so I did not use the kitchen.

The guard station was clean and well stocked with cookware. Middle Pine road FS 10046 were in rough shape with some trees across the road other wise a beautiful place to stay.

Great scenery with great cabin. The forest service staff at bridger teton were an asset to one of our party who had thought he had left a personal item at the cabin. The staff went above and beyond to assist in finding what turned out to be not lost at all. Thank you again for a memorable stay. I recommend this cabin wholeheartedly.

Facilities were great. This is a great location since it is close to a lot of different areas. It is close to the tribasin divide going into the head of the Greys River, close to Middle piney Lake, and close to the Labarge drainage. Also has and amazing view of Darby Mountain.

The road out has a few rough spots, but we have some experience driving rough roads and managed in Ford Transit 2WD.

The cabin is well situated with great views of the Wyoming Range from the fire pit. Well-stocked kitchen and the mattresses were comfy. Woodstove works great!

Would stay again no doubt. Great fall colors.
