Ranger Station was exactly what I was looking for. Remote, quiet, warm wood burning stove and good nights rest.

As always the guard station was magnificent. This was our third time staying there and first time for our good friends.

This cabin is a great value for your dollar. The fire ring area is perfectly placed away from the road and near the river. The parking and convenient bathroom location are excellent. We loved that despite there not being electricity that we still had use of a fridge, stove, and overhead bedroom lights. Some people don't leave it as clean as others, but it never felt germy or gross. We brought our dog with us and he had a wonderful time. Although he could slip through the surrounding fence if he wanted to it was enough of a barrier that he never chased after the frequent ATVs that rode by or that stopped to use the shared bathroom. There was plenty of firewood but I would suggest bringing your own just in case it had been used up by the time your reservation rolled around. We brought our own water cooler and then would fill it up at the spring that was about a mile up the road or back at the Hyrum City Park that was in the canyon. The futon mattress needed extra padding so we put more blankets on that and had our light weight kids sleep on that mattress, the other pads were just fine for a few nights. This is our second time staying here and we've already booked it again for the end of summer. It's perfect for that "glamping" experience, especially if you go in with realistic expectations.

Smooth process to rent and an incredible place. Loved the charm of the guard station. So glad we got it the first weekend the road opened. It was such a nice step out of busy life and back to a simpler time. We just need more places like this!

Great location and a wonderful cabin. We've stayed at many USFS cabins and really like the way this one is laid out. Very comfortable and a great spot to base some nordic and snowshoe adventures. Definitely looking to stay there again!
