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!

This cabin is in a beautiful valley and is luxurious by rural standards. It is pest-free, warm, well-lit, and well-stocked with dishes and firewood (early in the winter). The surrounding area is wonderful and the river has fish in it, though I have yet to catch one. The hike in is relatively flat and short (2ish miles). I've been here twice and plan to return for many more nights in the woods!

The Cabin was tons of fun for our small family! As noted there is no power. Everything is run by propane, including the lights and fridge/freezer. Two complaints we ended up having were that every mantle was broken on the gas lights, needing replacement before we could use them. We did end up having the mantles with us. Even with below 30 nights, there were several wasps we woke up to every morning inside the cabin. We saw maybe two other people our whole stay there! We were surprised with how well furnished the kitchen was, and how warm the wood stove kept the cabin. Looking forward to our next stay!

Endless stream of traffic and this cabin is right on the road, so there is little privacy in the yard. The restroom has a gate to the road that invites passersby to have a stop. The cabin itself is quite nice and appears well maintained though the beds require you bring your own mattresses.
