Very Nice stay, one of my favorite in the us. In the midlle of nowhere with beautifull wildlife. Just great.

LOVED this little cabin. Most reviews I saw of it mentioned that the bed was old. The futon was replaced on 6/4, so was brand new when I got there. Now, the bad part of the experience: the code emailed to me for the lock, twice, was wrong. Since there's no cell service anywhere near the cabin, I was unable to access my reservation, and ended up having to sleep in the driver seat of my vehicle the first night. The next morning, I drove to John Day, where I finally was able to get a connection, check this site, and see that my code was off by one digit. Once I was in the cabin, I saw from the guest book that others had the same problem. So, don't trust the number they email, check your reservation on the site. Otherwise, it it as advertised, a cute little rustic cabin, suitable for one person or a couple. Easy to get to, and very private. I was glad I had got in the cabin on the 2nd night there, when I heard wolves howling at dusk. I didn't hear or see any other large wildlife, and didn't get to explore the trails much due to being tired from spending the night in my vehicle.

Awesome location!! Considering how accessible the cabin is, it is amazingly quiet! The property/stove/fridge/fireplace are amazing!! Please stop complaining about the quality of the bed. If you know anything about government spending, the new futon will cost $2K and we will all end up paying for it for years! The bed isn't bad at all. If you're picky, bring an inflatable!

The bedding is absolutely horrendous. It is a very old old unclean sofa sleeper. The mattress is uneven, worn and lumpy. Bring your own bedding like cots or something. The kitchen area had multiple areas with rodent droppings. This place good shelter, but in the rough side.

Located in a nice area with some interesting hiking areas nearby. Fields Peak is a good hike (did that last year) this year drove an hour over to Seneca and did the Strawberry Mountain hike.

Please remove the sleeper sofa. Just tell people to bring an inflatable mattress.

Cute little cabin! We parked our RV's on either side of the cabin and used the grassy area and picnic table next to the cabin. If you are sleeping in the cabin, note it has a pull out couch - bring a mattress pad. The refrigerator in the cabin works great and it has a freezer. The outhouse is very clean. Road is paved the whole way which was a nice surprise and no dust (other roads in the area are dirt though).

We loved our stay here. Very secluded and we really enjoyed the large yard and fire pit for cooking. The fold out bed is really uncomfortable and I would bring a pad if I went again. When we arrived, there were a few signs of mouse droppings that were easy to clean up, and no mice luckily. The surrounding area is beautiful and fun to explore on the forest roads. We tried to spot wild horses, but failed, although we could see signs they had been near. I think early morning or dusk is a better time to see them. We hiked in nearby cedar grove botanical area, which was a beautiful hike and we were the only ones on the trail. We also drove over the the John Day Fossil Beds for hiking, which was a bit farther but definitely worth it.

super clean

All as listed. Stove was cozy warm and easy to get started. Everything was clean and tidy. Bed was sufficient. Recommend extra lantern, the lights were not very bright. People were stopping to use the outhouse that's on the property through the day.
