A truly amazing spot. The nature surrounding the building is beautiful. The cabin itself is a marvel. Yes, there are mice. It’s a 110 year old cabin in the woods, so to be expected. Had a great stay

I stay in a lot of lookouts and this has been my favorite. Clean and well cared for and off the ground by six feet it’s simple to get in and out. The road up is steeper and has sections of shale so plan accordingly. Views are amazing and thank you USFS for all you do for us!

Such a beautiful cabin. What an escape. We explored the area. There is so much history to the cabin and the area.

The lookout is in great condition! We appreciated the kindling for the stove, the clean firepit, the lack of bugs, and how tidy the lookout was.

Fantastic lookout! Cozy, clean, comfortable, a coveted lookout to book. Roads to the lookout are in great shape. Fire pit and grate for easy outdoor cooking. Bring outdoor chairs for the fire area.
