Always a great stay.

We were able to make it very close to the cabin and snowshoe in about 100yds. There was firewood available and the wood stove kept us comfortable with sub zero temperatures outside. Very enjoyable weekend.

Over the last 25 years we’ve stayed at least a hundred nights. Very “rustic” and that’s what we love. The mice are good “roommates”.

Ok

Great place just a little mouse poop.

This is not a bad cabin, and under other circumstances, like winter, it may be a nice stay. However when we checked in in August, the stench of death was unbearable. The Forest Service folks in Ashland need to check this rental for dead mice, and if someone sets mouse traps, THEY NEED TO CLEAR THEM. It was hot and when I opened the door the fumes were overwhelming. We aired it out with the windows and all the electric fans (so peaceful!) and cleared out 4 rotting or mummified mice. When was the last time anyone looked? 3 were in traps under the fridge and stove in various stages of decay, and another was dried up in a bowl on the cupboard. All the bowls were turned up so that birds, bird feathers, mice and mouse poop can find its way there. My buddy slept in his truck in fear of hantavirus, and we didn't use the stove because of all the mouse poop and fur on the burners. It may have been fine. Without electricity this place would not be livable in summer. I would rather have the mice alive and crawling over my face at night than the rotting corpses and that smell. I still cannot get it out of my nose!! The cabin condition overall is decent and it has amenities. Having a fridge is handy. It is in a nice location, about 10 degrees cooler than down lower, and the woodpeckers and songbirds are highly concentrated in this small few acres of older pines that were spared from the surrounding fire. It was just really, really, really stinky. Not worth $65/night. For that much someone should go at least check it before someone checks in. Bad deal for me, USFS... Won't do that again.

A nice little cabin in a quiet place. The place was really, really dirty when we arrived. A half hour of cleaning had it looking a bit better but a thorough cleaning seems to be a few years past due. We didn't see any wildlife except for a deer, either, which seemed strange.

We have stayed here many times in all the seasons and have always enjoyed it.

Great location. Cabin was clean and functional. Overall a great experience. The service support with the combination was great.

We love staying here, for the most part everyone cleans up after themselves. It's so relaxing and quiet, this last stay we saw a very nice 7 point bull elk and lots of turkeys, a few deer as well, 2nd time we've stayed, will be going back for sure!
