The trail is not marked. could not find the path through fresh snow. no reflectors, or flags, as is done in other trails. only a single way-plaque. trail drainage is poor, water runs along the trail, and not off of it. ice is not visible under the snow...

Great, cozy cabin with convenient fishing and gorgeous views. Beware the muskeg holes near the cabin (there's one in the trail beside the lake) and across the lake in the meadows. You may also want to bring an oar or kayak paddle if you intend to use the provided skiff; our last visit revealed only one present oar, which made paddling a he lake in a breeze exceptionally difficult-not impossible, but difficult.

My friends and I hiked to this cabin on the first weekend in April. We were post holing for the way out and did our best to clear some snow from the boardwalks to make our hike out (and future hikers) a little easier/safer. We almost missed the river crossing despite helpful sticks pointing in an arrow but made it to the cabin in one piece. Due to the post holes, our feet were wet but the propane heater was awesome and dried out socks and boots as we waited for the second half of our party to arrive. We were able to play card games and have dinner and breakfast cozy in the cabin. No issues with the stove, which we use a Dura-log in, or the propane heater. Would love to go back in the summer to use more of the lake!

Trail in on a warm day made it difficult to hike in the snow without falling often. The hike out was much better due to re-freeze of the snow pack. Trail at the beginning is great, but not well maintained after a little more than halfway. Cabin was in nice order, and the propane heater worked just fine as well as the fire stove. Unfortunately when we returned to the trailhead our car had been broken into and stolen. DO NOT leave valuables or keys in your car. There is no cell service and there are no security cameras in the parking area.
