everything was clean, the firewood was stocked and we all had a great time.
This camping trip was very special as my dad (86) had not stayed in this cabin since he was 9yr old and to have hi children, grandchildren and great grandchildren there with him was such a blessing.

The road to access the cabin was buried under 6 inches of snow so it was inaccessible and i was out the money for the cabin and had to pay for accommodations elsewhere

This is such an amazing offer to the public - the cabin is well cared for and the amenities are outstanding. What a wonderful experience. This is the third time we have rented this cabin and each time I am impressed with the way the previous user has left the cabin, it is always clean, the site is clean, the bathroom is in top shape, overall this is one of the highlights of visitors for us. Thank You so much

This is a very special place and we felt fortunate to have experienced an absolutely wonderful five nights at the Muddy Guard. We spent a lot of time exploring nearby forest service roads and saw moose, elk and deer. We also spent a lot of time just enjoying the cabin and "yard." We very much appreciate the Forest Service keeping the cabin in such good shape for many to enjoy. It's a true gem. If only there weren't so many ATV's out there having fun.
