Beautiful location within steps of several trails for varying ability levels. Only complaint is that the woodstove does not do a good job of heating the cabin in the winter - had to sit close to the stove to keep warm if I wanted to take my coat off inside.

This is probably my 4th year coming here. Love it and this year it was even cleaner and better organized then in years past. There is still some chairs etc that should be tossed but it’s way better. However since the cost per night has been increased substantially I feel I can be more critical. The outhouse is a joke. It’s extremely old and we were there in January and it reeked! No lime or anything to subdue the odor. This just encourages people to defecate outside the outhouse. It’s disgusting and no one‘s gonna walk to the other one down the road so you should just put a nice one at the cabin. Either that, or don’t complain about the toilet paper that people leave here and there.

Cabin was in great shape, very clean. The wood stove is too small to adequately heat the entire cabin without the fireplace operable. Recommend up grading the wood stove.

We had a hard time getting fire started in main cabin. Perhaps outlet pipe needs cleaning. Bunkhouse stove: Could not regulate the flue. otherwise, cabin is great.

Overall, the experience was excellent, despite temperatures falling below -5 deg F during the day (w/o wind chill). We had only one live mouse in the cabin ... I did not see it long enough to tell whether it was a deer mouse or a house mouse. Good amount of cobwebs on ceiling. The cabin BADLY needs a mop, to clean the floor. Why post signs about hantavirus danger, yet only provide straw brooms for cleaning? Although I understand the funding squeeze for USFS given increasing frequency and costs of firefighting, it somewhat saddens one to see the cost of a cabin rise to more than the cost of a hotel in rural MT($73./night). There were lots of fun games to play, as outside temperatures provided some danger to lungs. Someone (either a local landowner, or USFS) very kindly plowed the road after the fresh snow, which obviated our cautious approach of driving the truck out the night before the snow and skiing out the morning after the fresh snow. Cabin was VERY well stocked, with fridge, 4-burner stove + oven, electric lights, nice beds with pads, dishes and silverware, board games, puzzles, firewood, etc.
