We had the absolutely best time, the weather was amazing, the facility was wonderful, and the views- indescribable! The ladders were steep indeed, made for strategic trips up and down. The Oven did not work for the entirety of our trip but we were able to make due, however the heater works incredibly well, thankfully! The opportunities for adventuring without driving are limited. Enjoy the space and her beautiful surroundings as they are. Star gazing was amazing!

So quiet and the view’s spectacular!! Every thing worked with the exception of the oven a new pilot light sensor I think is needed. Enjoyed reading the journals and the collection of history. Bubbles will now be a lookout must, thank you Carter Family!!

Had a wonderful stay at this lookout! Road was snow-free and passable in my 24-year-old minivan (not 4 wheel drive) with no issues. 360 Views are amazing. Pulley system was super helpful-you'll want both hands free for climbing those steep stairs! Heater, stove & fridge all worked great and I was pleasantly surprised at how comfy the bed is. Outhouse was clean & well-stocked (although someone had gone right outside the outhouse & left dirty TP on the ground...WHYYYYYY?!) Definitely recommend this place, I'll be back for sure :)

We were pleasantly surprised by the ease of the amenities and comfort of the double bed. It was warm, cozy, and the sunrise was incredible. Don’t make our mistake and put “picket butte” in your gps or you will end up on some sketchy roads probably made for off road vehicles. Stay on the well maintained gravel roads! They give detailed instructions in the reservation email on how to get here and use the locks- screenshot these as you won’t have service until you get to the lookout.
