About

US Forest Service campground. The cabin is accessible by car in warmer months and by snowmobile in winter. The cabin provides a few conveniences; however, guests should be prepared to bring the supplies and equipment they need to make their stay more comfortable. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
