Beautiful views and a great experience! This lookout is one of the easiest to drive up to among the 18 I have stayed at. However, since the lookout is worn and showing its age, there are a few things to consider. It's best to bring your own lights, as one of the propane lights is broken, and there were no mantels (standard ones should fit if you're coming soon). Please be aware that, like most lookouts, the windows don't fit closely, and there are no screens. To address this, bring some blue painter's tape, which can serve two purposes. First, if bugs are bothersome, you can use the tape to plug holes and remove it before you leave. Second, you can order cheap screen material and tape it with the blue painter's tape over the windows during your stay so you can open the windows, and then remove it when you leave! Despite these considerations, it's still a fantastic spot to stay, offering stunning views and a memorable experience.
