Beautiful, rustic cabin with plenty of wood to burn. We loved just sitting on the deck and listening to the birds. We heard no rustling of mice at night, and by keeping our food on a table between the kitchen and main room (a method described by another guest in the logbook) we had no issues with critters getting into our food. Tip for the deck: the wood slats are further apart on the left side of the deck near the kitchen, and small feet tend to fall through. We found the right side deck boards were more compact and safer. We can’t wait for our next stay at this cabin!

Nice location, spacious cabin. However, I have stayed in numerous Forest Service cabins over the last several years and the Woods cabin was very sparsely furnished. Other than folding chairs and dining table chairs there were only two chairs that were useable in the main room. There was an additional arm chair that was missing one arm and springs were poking through the seat. Also, the kitchen was very poorly equipped. A trip to a thrift store could probably remedy that. Since there were only two of us it worked out. However if someone was to book it for a group of twelve, like what it is indicated in the description it would not be very comfortable.

The cabin was so much cleaner than it was last year! The kitchen, especially, looked like it had been well cleaned (we were prepared to never go into the kitchen from our experience the previous year). Good job to whoever was there before us. The wood supply this year was so much better than last....some of it was even split. And, all of it was very dry! Not much snow and way too warm for skiing, the lake was no longer frozen for skiing. However, we were able to hike to the falls and had a great time!

I love this place. It feels like home. Its rustic and you should expect a cabin experience. We are lucky to have access to this and experience a few days of life on Lake Como. The open layout and views make the experience feel magical.

Both wood stoves gaskets were broken. It was December and I had 3 youngsters with me 6,7 and 7. We had to abandon ship and go home. The prior renters were 5 that didn't report the problems to the Darby ranger station ( more then likely broken by these a-hole because they didn't report the problems ). THANKS - ELIZABETH, AUBRY, SAWYER, LIAM, QUINN and RYYS ( you know who you are! ) PLEASE ALWAYS REPORT NEEDEDREPAIRS ASAP SO THIS DOSENT HAPPEN TO OTHERS and please be kind restocking wood and kindling for the next renter.... Always leaving the cabins better the you found them. This is an honor system folks If we all do our part, we can preserve these cabins for the generations to come. Three stars for the amazing views! wish we could have enjoyed them.
