The stay at Kelley guard station was very nice location. However there is a serious mouse problem. Set three traps for first night we were there and got 4 mice . Yes I said 4 mice. They were so thick that one of the traps got two of them in it. These were not sticky traps either. Also the front door needs to be repaired does not want to stay latched or locked. If the price is going to be raise to $60 per night versus $30 per night there should be some improvements. The refrigerator does not work as well. I like Staying at the cabin it is a very nice location but it could use some improvements.

At one time Kelley was my favorite FS Cabin. Over the past few years the condition continues to deteriorate without much attention to to upkeep and repair. Last summer season the propane fridge wasn't working and the water was turned-off, meaning that the shower and flush toilet could not be used. Having an indoor bathroom in the woods was one of the real highlights of the site.
