Loved our stay. Plenty of room for all 4 of us, and plenty of wood to keep us warm. The wind was crazy, the hike up was pretty grueling but it was all worth it, the views are amazing. Just an FYI. The stove in the cabin requires the small, green coleman propane canisters.

Arrived to calm weather but then the winds kicked up. The bad: Lanturn had both mantles broken and pots and pans were pretty dirty. Limited silverware. There was also a 2 gallon jug of frozen pee out on the walkway. Please, bring your own pee pot and empty it in the latrine. Don't leave it out to freeze or others will need to take care of in once it thaws. There were no left over propane at the lookout (which often is available) so it was a good thing we brought plenty. Otherwise the wood was pleantiful and the place was clean. Always a winter adventure at the lookout!

We had a wonderful time at the lookout. It is well kept and provided a great getaway. A few visitors but all were respectful and didn't try to intrude. Be mindful of the yellow jackets that appear to be nesting in the wood pile and fly up and into the lookout. Could use a new fly swatter. Overall would stay again!

Great cabin. Amazing views. The periodic hiker was charming. The endless string of individuals and their families on four-wheelers equipped with American flags who set up impromptu block parties at all hours and were insulted and incredulous when they were told my family had rented the cabin for the weekend and they were unable to access the cabin--not so much fun. Several even told me that if they really wanted to that they could come up at any time to see the cabin and my family didn't have any ability to stop them. Needless to say, we left a few days early. I don't think there is much the forest service can do about it other than remove the notion of privacy and the cabin being a quiet area from the list of cabin amenities. In truth, worst forest service cabin I've ever stayed at, but unfortunately nothing to do with the cabin. I would never stay there again and would ultimately not recommend.
