Cabin is rustic but cozy, lights didn’t work but one, also bring cooler and lights. The floor could use a mop, the water pump is not easy. the walk to the outhouse at night is scary! But the Ranger hole trail is awesome so is murhut falls! Must see!! I enjoyed sitting at the front porch with my wine listening to the rain.

We had a lovely time at Interrorem Cabin. It was just the getaway we were looking for. Calm, quiet and amongst the trees. I recommend hiking the trails behind the cabin and stopping for oysters at Hama Hama Oyster Saloon. Please leave the place better than you found it by cleaning the kitchen, sweeping and taking out your trash. There is no water and no refrigerator but the propane stove and lights were working.

Lovely 3-day stay. Cabin was clean and well-cared for when we arrived. The area was beautiful but dry -- morning walks to Ranger's Hole were a staple of our stay there and hikes along the Duckabush River were wonderful.

This would have been our fourth time staying at the cabin, so we knew not to expect luxurious accommodations. However, we expected it to be safe, at a minimum. Instead, we smelled a strong scent of gas when we walked in, and a hissing sound when we opened the oven. We tried calling the emergency number listed on the wall to no avail (when we called the rangers station later in the week — since it was closed the entire weekend — we were informed this was no longer the emergency contact. No explanation as to why it wasn’t updated IN THE CABIN.) We tried leaving the door open but it still had a strong gas smell. We used the little bit of cell signal to Google “gas smell” and were informed “If you can smell gas, GET OUT!” So we did, given that we did not survive Covid to die in our sleep from asphyxiation. We waited TWO HOURS in the ferry line on a Friday afternoon and then drove the long way back to Seattle for another three hours in the car, for a completely wasted Memorial Day long weekend. There was also no water; a broken refrigerator on the porch; and a broken light with a sign saying it would be repaired soon — but the sign itself was so old the tape was peeling off. Again, we have enjoyed staying in the cabin in the past but there is no way the $50 a night is being applied to taking care of the place. That is as bogus as the “emergency contact” number. I would no longer recommend staying here, and will not reserve it again (obviously). Very disappointed.

Booked this place for three nights. I unloaded my stuff and started making a sandwich in the kitchen. I opened the drwaers and they were full of mice droppings. I opened other things, like the oven, only to find more mouse droppings. I'm okay with washing stuff and using it, but the water pump outside was broken. So all I had was the drinking water I brought. The river 1.5 mi away and the campground up the road doesn't have running water either. So, in short it was filthy and there was no water. I packed my car and drove back home (four hours each way, wasting an entire day). Recreation.gov only refunded me $100 out of the $158 I paid. Stay away from this place.

Instructions say certain items are available which is incorrect: Much of the indoor propane lighting does not work - be sure to bring your own headlamps. Water for outdoor pump does not work - be sure to bring adequate supplies of bottled water. Futon when used as a couch is broken, does not work - you can sleep on the futon but not sit on it. Despite these problems, for two people the cabin was OK. During nice weather and longer hours of daylight this would be a good, quiet and fun location.

We visited mid-February and there was snow on the ground. I wouldn't say the cabin was "toasty," but it got warm enough. The pump was not working, so bring your own water. Everything was very clean and the Ranger made an extra trip to bring us new mantles for the gas lanterns. We had a great time! The water at the Ranger's Fishing Hole is an incredible turquoise. Water coming down off of nearby Murhurt Falls was spectacular! Be sure to also visit Rocky Brook Falls, not far away up the Dosewallips. Absolutely incredible at this time of year. Was fun learning about the history and imagining what it might have been like to live here back then. Winter is a quiet time to visit. Highly recommend it.

Beautiful cabin a little closer to the public trail than I realized but a wonderful time non the less.
