I love Wurtz! This was my second stay. The first stay was a little better, this time there were a ton of mice.

We loved staying at the historic Wurtz Cabin! It was a peaceful place from which to explore the North Fork portion of Glacier National Park, and the history of the cabin itself is fantastic. We loved reading about the challenges of Frank and Ella Wurtz as they established their homestead and looking at the family pictures on the walls. We hiked to the Thoma Lookout and didn’t see another person on the trail, and we loved cooling off in the river each afternoon. We saw a wide variety of birds from the cabin porch, including a Western Tanager and a Bald Eagle. This is a very special place, and we’re so thankful to the Forest Service for preserving and sharing it!

First of all, the grounds/lawn looked totally un-maintained: tall grass (1-2 ft) and no trimming. Really? Mow the lawn! Take care of the place; make it look like you are proud to have this cabin. The interior was kind of dirty, like the previous renters barely made an effort to sweep/clean the place. The curtains are drab and need to be replaced. I found the cabin to be in a sad condition.

Great time! Big yard for group fun. Propane lanterns help it not be so dark inside. Plenty of dishes/pots/pans etc. Great gas range stove, oven, and griddle made group cooking so easy.

There is fire wood provided for the cabin only. For the outdoor fire pit you have to bring your own, which we did. Bring plenty of fire wood during the cold months. Cabin is well stocked with pots, dishes etc. We enjoyed our weekend at the Wurtz cabin.

almost perfect. A few issues mostly having to do with the public not the forest service. Last guests had a dog which we new by the poop outside. that is fine with us but we would all lilke to bring our dogs. Last guests did not fill the inside wood bin for the next guests us. Last guests turned off the heater clearly it says do not turn off the heater as the pilot light can be a pain. It was. I had to take apart the cover on the pilot and clean off the carbon deposit to get it to light. It was appropriately clean and neat. We had a great time as the weather cooperated.
