Cabin was stocked better than expected. We pre-prepared our dinners not knowing what utensils were available. We brought our own eating wares which weren't needed. We took 2 LED rechargeable lanterns. There wasn't much sun but was still able to get enough recharge to make it through the 3 days and 2 nights. Very quiet setting and dark at night with trees. Two mouse traps were set plus we brought our own. Mice might be in walls but not running around on the floor. No mice caught using peanut butter as bait. Bed was ok but sofa,for me. was very uncomfortable.

Three adults and 2 kids (15 & 8) Great cabin to stay at! Well stocked, including board games in the closet. We went up the springs and explored the creek a bit. It was too hot to explore more. Well definitely be back in cooler weather. We didnt use the shower due to the mildew smell but it was great having a flush toilet. The water from the faucet was icy cold and tasted great. We had an issue with the fridge not getting very cold but the freezer worked great. We refrozen the ice packs from our cooler and put them in the fridge to help keep the temp down. Beautiful drive up to the cabin. Its an open range area so we saw cows near the cabin several times and deer on our way out. One of the living room windows wont open and a kitchen window wouldnt stay open but there were enough that opened to get the cabin cooled off during the night. Theres enough room in the living room to add a cot if needed. We enjoyed the books and information left in the binders. The hot water heater and fridge had to be turned on. Instructions for the fridge are listed near the buttons. For the hot water heater, the instructions are in the manual. Overall a great stay!

This is such a cool place! The cabin is very comfortable (though the water heater was not working when we stayed...fine for one night but probably something one would want if staying longer!) and the area is so beautiful. The spring was amazing! We walked up to the origin point and it was just so beautiful. I wish we could have stayed longer--I definitely want to go back! It was very cool to read about some of the history of the cabin, available in the books and folder left there. We saw notes from previous guests that there had been break-ins, but no issues for us on our short stay. This place is definitely worth visiting!

Rustic but just what I wanted!

Delightful little cabin. Fireplace is wonderful! Shower not so much. Lovely grounds with relaxing creek close proximity across from the driveway. Several species of fungi. Historic cabin book at location! Bring your own firewood. We will be back for sure!! A treasure!

Guard Station was well stocked and ready for our arrival. We didnt stay long since the outside temps were so high during the day. I hadnt realized the spring was so close and cool. It was the perfect way to cool off during the over 100 degree F days. We spent most of our day there enjoying the cool spray and even the chilly water. Really enjoyed the history of the guard station. Will definitely book again when were ready for a technology reset. Really enjoyed seeing the forest animals early and late in the day. Such a beautiful setting and truly magical atmosphere.

Our family loved staying here. The cabin is rustic but cozy with no electricity but hot water, stocked kitchen, stove, and refrigerator! We loved exploring the grounds, walking to the streams headwaters, and learning about the guard stations history. Campground is closed so very private. It was the perfect place in between tent camping stops to shower, refreeze cooler packs, and rest!

Well worth the cost. Rustic but comfortable. If you like the big trees this is it. The springs we wonderful. A gem in the forest.

Beautiful spot. Cabin was very clean and we had a great time. We did notice fresh bear scat in the area so watch your dogs! We went to nearby Crater Lake and went swimming at Lost Creek Lake. We will definitely be going back again. Highly recommend!

We have stayed at the cabin for the past 7 yrs. This year was the worst ever, my husband sprayed an entire bottle of clorox clean-up on everything before he would allow me to go inside!! With the black streaks running down everywhere he sprayed I had to spend the entire next day cleaning. I have never seen it so gross and filthy!! With this Virus one would think the Goverment should have to follow their own guidelines & protocols!! To make sure that the cabin was disinfected & safe for us to enter!! Nothing was done. They even came up every day & none wore a mask or practiced social distancing!! They raised the rate 100% for up-keep & maintence, neither has been done. The inside is in the worst condition, fence outside to keep the cows out has been destroyed, would not take anything at all fix it, It was all torn up & cow shit all around, there was no wood, & the enterance gate was unlocked!! With the virus that gate should have been locked, specially since people have no respect and drove up to the cabin at all hours. They could clearly see we were there!! We are totally disgusted & disappointed that the Forest Service has allowed this cabin to get so run down & dilapidated!! We live here, we are up there a few times a year nothing has been done for 5 years!! Im not sure if we will return next year for our annual stay!! Also for those of you that stay at the cabin CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF!! I dont want to spend my time cleaning your gross filth!! People today have no respect!! It has been clean before you leave, If you are a person of value, you leave it better than when you got there!! What is wrong with people today!! Plain Nasty!!

fantastic location but this place needs maintenance. Lots of debris everywhere and a leaking roof and a mattress the dates back to the 30s when it was a Ranger station.
The futon was so old that it was unsafe. The irrigation ditch by the house is a mosquito haven.
Could have been so nice.
