Snyder Basin is praised for its beautiful scenery and the cabin's overall charm, providing a peaceful atmosphere perfect for stargazing. However, recent visits have highlighted cleanliness issues, including a dirty fridge and a mouse problem, which detracted from the experience. Despite these drawbacks, many longtime visitors continue to appreciate the location and its outdoor activities.

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.

This cabin sits right on a road, so you'll have traffic going right through your camp all day. This could be greatly improved with a gate and force traffic to go around. Additionally cattle can graze right up to the cabin. It's time we take our public lands back from aggressive ranching practices.
That said, it's a nice cabin and a beautiful valley. No water, so it's dusty but the stream nearby is a nice perk.

Excellent stay at Snyder Basin. USFS made sure we had plenty of wood. Hats off to the Big Piney Forest Rangers. Cabin was clean and comfy. Heater worked great. The Refrigerator wouldn't light up. Windows and bug screens needed upkeep. We mended a few of them as we could. Rangers stopped and checked on us which was nice.

We did not receive the correct information for the Snyder Cabin. When we arrived the cabin had not been cleaned by the previous guests and there was no mop or mop bucket or water available for us to properly clean the cabin. It was a somewhat satisfactory stay.
