Such a cute spot! I loved it. Unfortunately, the heat from the fireplace didn't really travel into the upstairs very well, so if you're staying in one of those rooms I would keep that in mind. The fireplace is not centrally located, so it only really heats the one room. However, there are futons that could sleep up to 4, so if you keep your group small it would be fine. The area is nice, but we couldn't find the trail I had looked up- make sure to do your research! The cabin log was really fun to look at if you have time- and it's plenty stocked with puzzles! There was plenty of parking on the road, and most folks out there were really nice. Such a cute spot, would love to go again!

Super great if you love no electricity, no running water, no cell reception, and a 1/2 mi walk-in through 2' of snow. If you don't like those things, steer clear.

We really enjoyed the cabin and the setting -- partly because it was snowy and beautiful. There are a couple outdated things in the description. There is no longer a wood burning fireplace. It is a "fake" fire, but does a nice job of heating the place. There doesn't appear to be a sno-park anymore, rather a campground that is used in the summer. Thank you!

I enjoyed reading the interview of the first Guard who was stationed here. Falls Creek Falls was a beautiful hike. The fireplace is propane which initially disappointed me because I was excited about a wood fire but the convenience and heat performance of the propane fire was very enjoyable. The propane lighting inside the cabin provides a very nice ambiance. We really liked our stay.

Everything was amazing, wasn’t sure if we should bring wood because it says wood was provided, however the gas fireplace didn’t need wood. Lovely get away.
