We had a wonderful time. The cabin is clean and the view is incredible. When we woke up there was a huge herd of sheeps around the cabin! Not something you see everyday.

Its a good cabin for the price. Its located in a very scenic location. Bring plenty of water.

The Summit Guardhouse is fairly remote and is accessed by a well maintained gravel road. It's quiet with amazing views of the valley below. Lots of great hiking and the whole area is very dog friendly. Beds were comfortable and the cabin came equipped with all of the kitchen amenities. We will definitely book this cabin again if we're in the area!!!

Beautiful sunset from the summit. Larches were turning in mid October when we were there. Road was nicely graded. Mountain bike is probably the way to explore the area. I did not see many hikes around the area. Plenty of open area to have great star gazing at night.

One of the most beautiful places, the views are extraordinary. Access is good , the bunkhouse is rustic but adequate. Altogether a great place to stay, am planning a return next year

Remote, quiet cabin at the "Summit". Great sunset views! Nicely set up for cooking. Bring lots of water for drinking, cooking, and washing dishes!!!

A wonderful camping experience, especially if you value seclusion and quiet! The view to the southwest is spectacular, particularly at sunset. The guard station cabin provides plenty of comfortable shelter for cooking, eating and sleeping while the station grounds still affording ample out of doors experiences. We definitely will return!

We loved our stay at the Summit Guard Station. The cabin was clean and the beds were comfortable. The beautiful location on the ridge cant be beat.

Booked hoping to see the Orionids meteor shower, but got snow and fog instead. It was still wonderful! Thanks for keeping this place clean and peaceful.

Beautiful spot, cabin was as advertised - clean, had all the cooking stuff we needed- the heater worked (thank goodness it was cold) the view was great- had the whole place to our selves. Thank you USA government- a service I would love to have more of

@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!!!
