I stayed over 4th of July weekend! Absolutely gorgeous lookout, very clean! Plenty of firewood and have to love a fridge, stove and lights!! It's like staying at the Hilton!! The views are magnificent and one of the best scenery I have seen. If you are hot, turn on the fan. If you are cold, turn on the heater. Best vault toilet ever! Very clean, well stocked, large! Plenty of trails to follow in the area, especially to Tupper's lake, and plenty of wildlife to be seen. Firepit with ring was awesome!! Sunsets, sunrise and stars incredible! Not to mention the fireworks view on the 4th! Only downside is you will get a ton of visitors!! I stopped counting at 50! A lot of groups and they over stayed their welcome. some tried to come inside the lookout even though I closed the hatch. I was sleeping and they were at the door trying to come in! Thank goodness there is a lock on the door!! Other than that it was great! You have electricity and cell service. The road up only has a short hill that is kind of tricky as it is eroded, steep and angled. But it is only about 50 feet. The entire road is a bit rocky and eroded, so I feel like a higher clearance vehicle is a good choice. Great stay minus the crowds!

Definitely high clearance access. Jeep was perfect! Would help to have arrow/sign on the final right turn. Lookout was excellent as always!

Nice place. There are no beds, just two very uncomfortable cots that smell terrible. I've rented tons of lookouts and never seen one without mattresses. Other than that, very nice place

Our night in the lookout was overall great! It’s so peaceful and beautiful to see the surrounding mountains and lakes! When we first arrived, the main door handle fell off as soon as we tried to open the door. My son tried to fix it, but without an actual screw driver, I’m not sure how long it’ll last. Someone needs to fix it properly so that the door can be closed and locked while staying overnight. I’m not sure what or why, but the surface of the table is extremely sticky. We tried cleaning it with soap and water, Clorox wipes, and also 409. Nothing helped. We were happy someone left a roll of paper towels and we used those to make a table cloth. But getting stuck paper off the table was a whole new chore when it was time to leave! The wall heater inside was a really nice surprise! It was rainy and chilly the night we were there so it felt great! The refrigerator was super helpful! There’s no need to take a cooler up the steep stairs. I recommend bringing your own sleep mat/cushion or an air pump for the one that is provided. There are two hard benches and two cots to sleep on. The outside trap door is really heavy. Make sure to close both doors or ensure it’s hooked when open. The wind grabs it if left half open and it bangs shut.
