Pros, 2 decent size bedrooms, working propane fridge and stove. Fall River begins from a hillside perhaps 200 feet from the cabin. Super clear river. Lots of able fly fishers. Close to many PsOI. Nearby fish hatchery is a must visit, feed em. Easy access to Bend, tube float the river through town! High Desert Museum, 20 minutes away, really cool. Newberry Volcanic NM a must visit. Cons, you share a vault toilet and parking lot with the public. Some road noise, very little at night.

Nice Cabin. To many people! I have stayed at a few guard stations and this one by far was the busiest. There were all kinds of visitors from sunrise to sunset. It would be great for those fly fishermen who want to get away. Probably won't revisit this one.

The riverside location is beautiful (I highly recommend walking or running along the river trail), and the cabin is cute. Unfortunately, the fridge wasn't working when we were there, and the furnace was barely functioning. We spent most of our indoor time in our sleeping bags. (We were there in November.) The lighting will barely keep you from walking into walls. Definitely bring headlamps or electric lanterns for use in late afternoon/evening hours. Also, this is not a remote location! It's only about 10 minutes from Sunriver, on a fairly well-traveled road. That's helpful for going out for groceries, or finding things to do, but if you're looking for a secluded cabin, this is not the one for you.

Beautiful location on a fly fishing river with lots of fishermen to watch. Great location as base for various hikes. That being said, the cabin itself was a bit more of an adventure than I was up for. It's only as clean as the previous guests, and the resident mice, leave it. No running water so bring a bucket to carry river water for mopping and antibacterial wipes for the mattresses and kitchen surfaces. Battery lights are very dim. You'll need to wear a headlamp inside before the sun sets. Don't turn up the fridge...leave it set low at 1 or 2 or your food will freeze. The cabin is at a trailhead and the only restroom is the vault toilet in the parking lot with lots of visiting fishermen and hikers all day. My husband would say 4 stars, I would say 2 stars, so we compromised at 3 stars.

Okay experience. We expected it to be rustic and it was. We spend time cleaning out dead rodents, dirt, droppings. The furniture is very dated. Bring lighting, thr battery operated lights on the walls work as a nightlight but don't provide enough light to do anything by

Staying at the cabin is not exactly private as the parking area is also a trailhead. Bring plenty of layers as the cabin can be COLD if no one's there for awhile. The propane heater takes a long time to heat things up. There are virtually no dishes of any kind at the cabin - bring everything with you... including a kettle for hot water.
