Comfortable cabin to stay in. Plenty of supplies in the kitchen with which to make meals. I would return.

Great cabin in a beautiful place! Lots of wildlife right outside the door.

We had an amazing time at the cabin and ponds. We caught the end of the meteor shower and enjoying the pair of great horned owl’s, marmot and deer. PEACE was found

We absolutely loved staying in this cabin. It's exactly the kind of family facility we love to use. Removed enough to have a few quirks, and loved enough to be welcoming and comfortable. You can feel the communal appreciation the moment you walk in. This unassuming cabin feels luxurious when you find it comes equipped with a full electric kitchen and even gloriously hot water. We comfortably stayed as a family of six, with a couple of young children and had a blast for the full duration of our stay.

Wonderful cabin. Loved the area, the cabin was perfect for our family of 6. Two full bathrooms and a full kitchen really helped us maintain comfort while being remote. The rooms were large enough to spread out from each other, important since this was just one so on our long road trip, and the outside area was inviting. We would recommend to family and friends, and we are considering going back next year.

Perfect place to disconnect and recharge. Each bedroom has two twin beds that easily push together if you need a larger bed. While the description says you need to bring cooking utensils, there’s plenty of pots, pans, plates, and silverware that have collected over the years.

It is a big three bedrooms cabin. However, the bathrooms and kitchen are down the basement that wasn’t mentioned in information page. It was relatively clean except lots of flies. We cleaned the cabin for the next quests to enjoy when we left. It is a long 40-minute drive from Montrose. If you don't plan to travel to other areas during your stay, it will be better. We were disappointed to see the Silesca Pond was dried out. But I was excited to discovered a nearby beautiful pond when I ventured out the back field. It was interesting to read the materials in the cabin about the history of the cabin, pond, and surrounding area.

It is rustic but that is exactly what we expected and hoped for.

The cabin sits on some of the most beautiful and serene places God created. My wife’s parents ran cattle in this area for years so a lot of fond memories for this area. I would recommend this stay to anybody wanting to just relax and enjoy the beauty and the peace and quiet this location offers.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
