Cabin was not accessible due to snow and marked closed by the forest service, recreation.gov did not reflect that and continued to send "get ready for your trip" emails.

It's not accessible due to snow. I had to cancel the reservation.

Warning - roads and sno park NOT plowed as stated in facility driving directions. Prepare to get stuck in snow, spend two nights in your car and never make it to the cabin! I called the Silver Lake Ranger Station prior to my attempt and was told, falsely, that I could “drive most of the way there.” I checked snotel and discovered there was 10 inches of snow recorded. Fine. I can ski 10 miles in those conditions. But with unplowed roads I’d have to ski 5-8 miles to the sno park to even begin my 10 mile trek in. After this debacle of failing to get to the cabin, I met the snowplow driver on road 28, which he had plowed to the beginning of 2916, stopped and TURNED AROUND. He told me the Forest Service guys “never even come up there” and that his contract is to plow to the Sycan Substation. Which, btw, he did not do that day. A wholly frustrating experience. Could easily have been prevented by USFS providing accurate information in this listing. This is my 7th cabin/lookout rented thru Rec.gov and most listings have incomplete and inaccurate info. So, there ya go.
