Nice. 5.5 miles and 45 mins from forest boundary to cabin in the suby; not fast but nbd if you drive attentively. Only one fork and spoon.

Unbelievably beautiful setting, lovely restored log cabin. Superficially clean (floor swept etc) but cupboards desperately need a deep clean … ie, mouse half eaten years old bags of dog food, greasy grimey old cans, etc). I picked up carpet to try and shake out the dirt and was covered literally in years of accumulated dirt. Only light and only stove depend on propane canisters that were almost out.

Love this cabin and it's location! The views from the cabin are breathtaking and the restoration done on this cabin was amazing. Unfortunately, people have not taken care of it - screens were pulled off of the window and trash was left in the fire ring. I wish renters would take care of what a wonderful cabin this is. Thank you to the F/S for keeping this program going.

The shovel and broom need to be replaced. the top bunk is really high with a log 3' above your head. None of the bunks have ladders and it is really hard to get up and down. The views and hiking are spectacular. There was chopped wood and the wood stove is really good.

After a gnarly drive up the forest service road (chains and high clearance required on feb 19th) and breaking trail in 8-12” of snow for 4 miles, we were so grateful to see the cabin just as the sun set. It was well stocked with wood, pots & pans, and cards. The guards for the lanterns there were broken so we used our headlamps for light. Both padlocks to the woodshed and the cabin itself had been broken or frozen open. The cabin was clean and well stocked and perfect for a night of rest. It took us 3.5 hrs to ski in, mostly downhill, breaking trail and about 2 hours to ski out, mostly uphill, on the trail we had broken on the way in. I don’t know that I’d want to do this again in the depths of winter but am glad we did. Looking forward to booking it again in warmer weather!
