An excellent lookout! The wood stove cranks out more than enough heat, and the propane burners make cooking a breeze! Beautiful view and time in nature.

What a lovely lookout! The cabin was clean and well maintained, with loads of firewood available for a chilly winter night. Though we didn't use any because we brought our own, there were dishes and pots to cook with. There is an amazing little stove with four burners and an oven, so think about what you can bake while there! The storage area for the kitchen stuff is NOT mouse proof, and did have some signs that mice had been there. We kept our food items in the game cabinet, since that is mouse proof, and offered a little extra peace of mind. The road up is a great one for skiing if the weather permits, making the return trip down under an hour. If you have to walk, it's roughly three hours either direction. All in all, this is an absolutely lovely cabin with lovely views of the surrounds mountains. Highly recommended!

This was our first time staying at a lookout here in Montana and we were so pleased with the entire experience. We had gone up on the last nice autumn day, larches glowing! Had plenty of fire wood, brought delicious food and drink and had a wonderful time unplugging and just being. Half way through the night we woke up to a huge snowstorm but stayed nice and warm by the fire. This beats a five star hotel in my book and day of the week. Highly recommend

Our experience was fantastic. Even though it was nine below in the morning we were warm and comfortable. There was plenty of wood and propane. Outstanding adventure!

Beautiful Views. Saw for the first time in my life a short tailed Rocky Mountain Weasel, possibly the most adorable creature on Earth, haha. Everything was as stated on the website. Thank You!!
