The cabin is in a lovely location with wonderful views. It would have been helpful if the cabin description or local office staff could have given specific information about the location and condition of the available water. Also, it would have been nice to know that the hike from the trail junction into the cabin was significant downhill on the way in.

The Cabin Creek Forest Service cabin is a great place to stay. The views to the West of the Madison range if phenomenal as are the night sky views. We took in an electric chainsaw to supplement the wood supply and water from the Middle Fork of Cabin Creek was readily available. Celebrated my 83rd birthday there. But in this dry year didn't see any elk.

Had a great time there - I spent 2 nights. 1st night rained most of the night and it was nice not having to get up and pack up a wet tent. It was nice sitting on the porch out of the rain watching the flashes from lightening. No roof leaks. The screen door kept out the mosquitoes. The small table with bench inside was convenient for cooking, and eating breakfast and dinner. I brought my own stove and pans but there were pans in the cabin. 3 bunks inside iirc. I hope to rent it again next summer
