The good: SUPER value off season at $35 but pretty sure that low pricing won't be around much longer. 4 room cabin with electricity with bunk bed with queen on bottom & twin on top, futon couch for 2, fridge, microwave, 4 burner electric range with oven. Outlets all over. 3 electric heaters that all work great. Do not max out the temperature or they will shut off due to overheating. We have Verizon for cell service and were able to get 2 bar 4G LTE at the fee station and the amphitheater but it did come and go. Water inside and out provided seasonally with toilet and shower. Seasonal sink. Lots of dishes, pots, pans, glasses. Blinds over windows for privacy except kitchen. Large porch with 2 rockers. Fire pit with 2 metal picnic tables and also elevated huge charcoal grill. Flagpole if you want to bring a flag. Motion light over back door to light up the walkway at night to the concrete ADA vault toilet. If you hear loud bangs it's probably pine cones hitting roof. The bad: Part of our reservation and others got canceled due to USFS having to repaint the interior, clean and make repairs due to many people still using the wood stove to burn wood when a sign was there saying do not use. Intense smoke leaking from the stovepipe made everything soot covered. Due to this the wood stove has been removed at least temporary. There was no ax or splitter available due to the stove being gone. Also there was only 1 chair for the drop down table. We think the others were removed to get ready for painting. This cabin is in a state park with numerous campsites. If you want privacy this is NOT for you. Even when we stayed we had people coming to the cabin as they thought it was open for visitation. There is no sign telling people to stay away as it is a rental unit so we sadly had many visitors. You can't lock front door from inside. Always bring own lock to lock outside. There were no journals to read. Maybe somebody can bring a couple for the future.

A great place to stay as long as you carefully read the winter conditions.

Everything was great! The guard station was cozy and clean and had just had painting done on the cute porch. There was plenty of wood for a fire (though I just used the provided heater) and the outdoor picnic/fire area was lovely. I can't wait to come back with friends! Just be sure to bring enough water so you can also do your dishes! :) The camp staff that I talked to was also very friendly and informative. They are working very hard to keep the area lovely. Thanks!

The cabin was lovely, quiet and had plentiful supplies, temperature was great. The only improvement would be to install lock on the front door to secure the cabin at night. To secure it we had to padlock the front door and walk to the back to secure.

Cozy cabin. Love the new futon!

Beautiful views from the porch. Very quiet. Amazing stars! The wood burning stove was very cozy and kept the cabin warm all night.

Cute little cabin. Reservoir gate was closed so we walked about a third of a mile in with our things. Everything was clean and the futon was comfortable. Plenty of wood to keep us warm with the wood burning stove. I do wish the electric heater had worked though. Outhouse was also clean.

Cabin is fully stocked with dishes, stove, fridge, and even a microwave. I read reviews that said the beds were uncomfortable, however, we found the futon bed in the main room to be nice and cozy. The weather was beautiful, and we never had to use the wood stove. The hot shower was wonderful also.

This was quiet awesome and so close to great trails. We loved it

We rented the cabin the week before the indoor plumbing was opened for use (due to pipes potentially freezing). I didn't understand why we had to walk from the gate to the cabin (approx. 1 mile one-way) until we woke up to a continuing snow storm that left 6+ inches of snow on the ground overnight - which provided some of the most picturesque views I have ever experienced. I would highly recommend staying here. The gate is automatically closed until the end of the winter season and is opened at the beginning of May - weather permitting. There was a plug-in heater available but the electricity went out overnight so I recommend using the wood burning stove. My only critiques are: the futon couch was previously broken and not terribly comfortable, and the beds were not the most comfortable either - but you don't stay here for comfort, you stay for the landscape that looks like it was used as a Hallmark movie background.
