We LOVED this cabin. It's very basic and in the winter under a lot of snow. There was 2 ft. of untracked snow and it was amazing. It took us about 45 min. with snowshoes to walk the mile and about 30 min. on the way down. The furnace is tricky to start so don't get discouraged. It takes the cabin a bit to warm up. We brought down booties to wear inside and it was absolutely amazing. We also brought some Clorox wipes just in case but everything was in excellent condition and clean. We will absolutely be back!

Family of four spent 2 nights here. In late Sept 2022. The fall colors were beautiful, weather was perfect. Clear skies, highs of 55 and lows of 26. When lighting the oven pilot, make sure to lift the stove top up first and light the 2 stove pilots first. We had no issues with the cabin or it’s equipment, all worked great for us. The solar lights work very well and operate just as of the cabin had electricity, lit it more then good enough for our needs. Others have reported having issues with the bathroom key, but we had none. Would gladly stay again.

Great quiet destination, close to numerous trails and sights in the Snowy Range. The cabin has a gas stove, a gas heater, limited cooking pots, 4 bunks and a table. The FS road leading to the cabin may be used by other campers looking to boondock. The bathroom was clean and it is locked so there is no public access.

This is as basic a cabin as you can have which is appealing to many. It's located just off the highway which makes it easy to be able to explore & hike the numerous trails in the area, which is spectacular.

The cabin is pretty rustic, but certainly functional. The Snowies are an extraordinarily scenic area. The main problem for us was that we suffered altitude sickness. We had been fine at 8,500' in Colorado, but 10,300 was difficult. It might be nice if NFS could install some kind of outdoor dish and other washing facility with a drain field. Stocks of toilet paper and all kinds of things in the cupboards were appreciated!

Cabin was in very good shape. The road, WY130 was groomed each morning nice and early. All the appliances and lights were working well. Lots of toilet paper stocked. Great job keeping this place up!

This was our fifth time visiting the cabin. We've been there in the summer and winter. We love the quiet at night. The cabin has a few issues you'll encounter in the winter. Once the cabin heats up after a day or so, snow melts off the roof and leaks into the cabin from above a window. I am not sure what it would take to repair it and it isn't that big of a deal, just something to be aware of. Over time it seems that most of the silverware has disappeared vs what was there previously. On our recent visit there was no dish soap and no disinfecting cleaning products so be sure to bring those with you. The one plastic pan for dishwashing had to be used to try to capture some of the dripping water so you may also want to bring dishwashing pans with you. There are still plenty of plates, bowls, pots and pans. If someone would bring and donate a non-stick flipper or turner to use with the non-stick frying pans that would be helpful. All that is left is a metal grilling tool. There is plenty of toilet paper! Enjoy your visit.

Great cabin for XC skiing, beautiful views, and seclusion. We entered from the west side of WY 130, only about a 1 mile ski in. Fairly primitive, bring your own soap and lighter.
