Nice, large cabin in a visually private setting though pretty close to the road. Access was easy through locked gate and the dirt road was short and navigable. Cabin has a spacious main room and shared bedroom. Newer outhouse was in good shape. Nice fire ring and benches outside. Wood burning stoves in each room inside. And a nice patio to boot! On the downside, mice were a fairly real menace. They scattered throughout the cabin all night and got into my car (with all the windows rolled up) and proceeded to make a mess of the inside of my car. Just part of nature, of course. Still, I'd park your car a bit away from the cabin to hopefully separate their (presumed) nest from your cherished vehicle. Otherwise, a great stay.

Our stay at the Battle Ridge cabin was very nice. The cabin itself is very rustic, which was to be expected, since we had stayed there before. The setting was and views were great. There are new outhouse facilities on site, which were appreciated.

Great Cabin! Thanks

Great Cabin! Thanks

Directions to hike to the cabin were a little misleading, but overall the cabin and its location was gorgeous.

Wonderful cabin in a beautiful setting! Comfortable and well stocked with an efficient stove, keeping us warm in sub-zero temps. Note: the ski trail from the Battle Ridge parking lot is NOT clearly marked and the directions in the confirmation email are only semi-helpful. The trail starts from the south-east corner of the parking lot by the stop sign. Be prepared for some ups and downs along this trail (nothing extreme, but not necessarily easy with a loaded pack). The Forest Service really should find a way to plow the space in front of the gate, allowing guests to ski along the cabin road instead.
