We found the cabin to be a fantastic winter experience, a wood stove for heat would be the only thing that could possibly improve the amenities. Mainly to expedite the drying of gear.

We enjoyed a quiet retreat at Anna Creek cabin, with beautiful views of the snow capped mountains and forest all around!! It was a great place to unwind, read, and enjoy a camp fire together. The cabin is an ideal place for families to get together, with ample sleeping space and large kitchen and dining area. Remember to bring plenty of water for both drinking and washing up dishes, etc. (We were fortunate to find that someone had left water on site.) The last 14 miles of road is gravel with some washboards and pot holes, so a leisurely pace is recommended. We are grateful for the USFS cabins!!!! Outside toilet was well maintained. Would recommend cutting the few bushy saplings that have grown up east of the beautiful fire ring area, for enjoyment of the Mountain View’s as well as the campfire. Thank you!!!!!!

Excellent views from the living room and dining area, early morning is the best. The road is very close and there is a lot of traffic and dust. We actually made a game of guessing which way the vehicles were traveling! Five stars for the nice clean vault toilet! A propane fridge (like at Fairview Ranger Station) would up my cabin rating to five stars. A little mouse gave us big trouble :)

I'm giving a 4 star review because yes, the heaters did not work. When I was visiting at a nearby ranger station, the ranger I spoke with said the cabin is still a "work in progress"--and I must say that is something they ought to work on. But the lights do give off a decent amount of heat (at least for early autumn), and if you stay there in the summer, this will all be a non-issue. Overall, it's a good cabin. There is plenty of light from the large windows in the main room with views of the reservoir, and it is well-furnished. The bunk room makes you feel like you're at summer camp, but better. If it hadn't been raining much of the time I was there, I would have sat on the porch, and lifted a drink to the sunset. And it has a good location for various activities in the Flathead--or just down the road. A previous guest wrote in the guest book recommending nearby Graves Creek Falls, and provided directions. I hadn't ever heard of it before, but I followed her advice, and it was well worth it. Finally, the road was--and I am fairly learned in the way of gravel roads, so you can trust me--not that bad.
