I called ahead of time to ask if I would need chains or 4wd and was told the road is always kept clear. I got 4 miles away and was not able to get through due to snow. I never made it to the cabin and my vacation was ruined.

The cabin is beautiful. We were so happy to have stayed at the Anthony Lakes guard station. We were there at the end of May and arrived to a frozen lake and a few inches of snow on the ground. While we would have loved to explore the immediate area more, we were unable to travel too far from the cabin as we were with our 8 year old. We did take a day and traveled to Baker City and went to the Oregon Trail interpretive center and that was a great experience for the whole family. The Cabin is heated with the gas fireplace which makes for a great ambiance for the main room. The beds in the cabin are very very firm, so side sleepers be prepared. All the amenities were exactly as presented and would highly recommend anyone to stay at this cabin for a family get away. The main bedroom on the first floor has a full size bed, while the other two bedrooms upstairs only had single size beds. the bedrooms upstairs had 2 - 3 beds in each room. LOVE THIS PLACE!

We were soooo disappointed!!! Nobody was expecting us, not the caretaker or Josh. There was 10 ft of snow blocking our entrance to the cabin, the door was locked on the inside preventing us from entering! Realizing we were not going to get in and no one around, we left. We drove 4-5 hours to get there from Bend and had to turn right around to drive another 4-5 hours home. Not Having that anticipated time in the cabin and all the time spent for nothing. All our food was for cooking and not for immediate eating. We were very upset! And Josh was so sorry and refunded our money, but how do you replace our getaway and lost adventure. We will NOT trust you guys again. Barbara K

We enjoyed staying so close to the lake, although it can get very busy there in the summer. Lovely cabin, very clean.

It is a beautiful place. Rental is old and historic. Too bad it is not well maintained. Smoke alarms were just hanging. Even though dogs were not allowed they had been inside and had smeared windows. Propane heat would sort of “blow” up when it came on making enough noise it was hard to sleep. We did write these things down and told campground host. I will go back it will be more prepared next time.

Everything was very nice.

The cabin really needs an overhaul in terms of equipment and cleanliness, to include: 1) the oven is really out of wack .. not level, some of the burners don't work, it smells super bad as needs a thorough cleaning of burnt grease inside the oven when you turn it on 2) the fireplace / blower doesn't work which is needed for warmth 3) the door of the downstairs bedroom hinges are loose and the door falls off 4) cleaning equipment (e.g., mop) is really dirty / disgusting so when you clean the place upon leaving all you are really doing is mopping around wet germs for the next place .. overall, seems borderline health hazard
