Love this place This time they had a lot snow, and was unable to get it to parking lot. My grandkids play in snow had a lot of fun. My wife was unable to get to the cabin this trip. Looking forward to next time.

The forest was absolutely beautiful. Can’t say the same about the cabin. I think they need a new cleaning person, but that was the least of our concerns. We lost power the last night we were there and because there was only an electric stove we couldn’t cook. We also couldn’t drive because of the storm. Luckily I had already cooked chicken the night before and so we had chicken salads, otherwise it would have been cereal. Honestly in a place like that they really need a gas stove for unpredictable power outages. Luckily there was a gas furnace so we were nice and warm during the storm.

Make sure you contact the ranger station for the lock code early during holidays because they close.

What an awesome location! We loved exploring Apple Hill, hiking down to the river, and the paved bike path right outside the cabin door. The cabin included everything needed for the stay. Just bring bedding, toiletries, towels, and food. The fire pit outside was awesome as well. There are benches available or bring your own chairs. Be sure to check if fires are allowed and get a free online fire permit. All the appliances were in good working order and the heater worked wonderfully. There is also a space heater for the bedroom if you need more heat. There is a DVD player in the cabin and a small tv. The closet has some board games as well. There are basic cleaning supplies that may not always be available, depending on what someone has donated. The cabin has two twin beds and a pull out couch double/full bed. None of the beds are particularly comfortable for an adult- though it may be preference. The two twins are very firm. The pull out couch is a thin mattress and you can feel the frame beneath you. I would recommend bringing mattress toppers if you have them. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything needed to cook and eat with in terms of tools, pans, pots, and plates/bowls/forks. There were a lack of eating spoons. You will need to bring your own foil/spray/etc. There are 4 chairs in the kitchen (3 wooden and 1 metal folding). Enjoy! It truly is a hidden gem.

- Great little cabin with perfect amenities! - Wide open visibility to adjacent areas, but removed far enough from the main road (and trailhead parking lot) that it still feels very private. - No rodent issues. - Property is not fenced like the website says - a fire in the area seems to have damaged this and it hasn't been replaced. - Even when the temperature was only high 80s, the cabin got very warm inside. Mosquitos were an issue and the windows don't have screens, so only the screened front and back door could stay open in the evening to cool things down. We ended up buying a fan from the hardware store to make the bedroom more comfortable at night.
