If you’ve never stayed in a fire lookout- this is the perfect one. Great location- easy drive up and all the wonders of the 360 views with sunrise and sunset! A rustic night in comfortable accommodations.

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was neat and tidy. The out house was clean. We had fun reading through the guest books. I'd love to know about the history. An addition that would sure be great is a way to lock the door or a working trap door that can be locked while inside. The latch inside the door is pretty useless for anything more than keeping the door shut.

We've stayed overnight here twice, a great experience this year. Thankfully, the area and the lookout are very clean, I didn't see a single piece of trash anywhere. The drive is easy, about an hour from Bonners Ferry. Easily found huckleberries in early-season ripening within 100 yards of the lookout. The outhouse is "rustic", but usable to all but the most picky camper. The only setback was the cooking grate for the fire ring was missing; we hadn't planned on that, so had to improvise with rocks stacked inside the ring. Enjoy! Be respectful! Pack it in, pack it out!
