The last three miles of the road is very rocky and slow. Needs major repair. The floor door through the decking is very heavy and cumbersome. The new stove is a plus. We have stayed here a dozen times and always appreciate the view, quiet and starry nights! Thank you to the rec crew who maintain these lookouts. Your hard work to keep these up is greatly appreciated.

My friend and I had an awesome experience at the lookout and thankfully got lucky with the weather. I'm happy, though, that I wasn't by myself at this particular lookout because I don't believe I could have pushed the door up on my own. I'm not a small woman and although getting up there in age, not very weak, yet, thank goodness. :-) I wasn't even able to shut the door on my own, either, because I was really afraid that I wasn't going to be able to get far enough down the steps, quickly enough, so that this extremely heavy door wouldn't have knocked me out. LOL It would be nice if this part was mentioned in the description. I'd really hate for someone to go all the way up there, just to find out they aren't able to get in the lookout. I'm a tired, happy camper this evening, and am hoping that my review might be helpful to someone down the road. :-)

Once in a lifetime experience for us. Really enjoyed the stay. Only reason it got 4 instead of 5 stars was the smoke from distant fires, really hurt the visibility.

Loved it. Was our 1st time in a lookout and we are now hooked. This was a wonderful experience. Lots of stairs. Bring bug spray and be prepared to be hot if it is late July. Overall had a great time will do this one again.

The Lookout was wonderful! It was clean, beds were comfortable and appreciated the propane lights and stove. Only down sides were the hornets and the smoke from the fires prevented us from enjoying the view as much as we would have liked. Overall a wonderful experience.
