We found the cabin was left clean and in good order. The window covers were all up backwards but other than leaving large gaps it did not matter. Someone had tried to tape screen on a couple windows so flies would not come in and we just left that alone. Some children had painted rocks around the area and we also left those. Other than a lot of large truck traffic on the road those couple days we had a nice stay.

Price increase? Book now? All other $20/$25cabins in the area have posted they will be $45+ per night next year. There was no notification of this but suspect that somebody tossed this notice at cabin. Verify with ranger office. If increase is coming book now! Nice cabin with some views but issues. The good: Easy drive weather permitted in a car. 3 Bar 4G Verizon about 3 miles from cabin close to the Fairmont Hot Springs Resort. Wood heater. Some games. Nice wood lodge feel. BIG porch! Fire pit with log seats but no picnic table. Good ADA vault pit toilet. Dining table with 4 backed chairs if you move the table & also extra table in bedroom Has a sink that drains. Lots of wood. Coral for horses. String gate for some privacy. 2 bunk beds. The bad: No screens. Very small stream nearby but filled with cow patties. No drinking or cleaning water from this source is recommended. This is the only cabin we have rented that has a root cellar. However due to this there is moisture & wetness in the cellar that had created a mold smell in the cabin. On top of this there is a closet in the bedroom that had a heavy rodent urine smell that people have complained about for 10+ years. Even though the USFS removed some of the wall that urine smell is till there. With the above two issues if you are sensitive to bad smells / have breathing issues you shouldn't rent here. As with all USFS locations the enjoyment has a lot has to do with previous renters taking care & cleaning before they leave. Sadly this unit appears to have frequent local guests who do not. The cabin had not been cleaned upon arrival by many with the sink disgusting & with foot prints in it & on the chairs. On top of this at least 10 birds perhaps grouse had been shot next to the creek & their bodies were all along the creek & in trees. On top of this animal parts were spread along the creek causing a stench. We actually hope the price is being raised to keep the type of people who did this away!
