There was a few problems with this place but it still deserves 5 stars. If I would've followed the normal directions and went in via Medical Springs it would've gone a lot quicker. Instead we made our own route up through Carson since we started our day over by Hell's Canyon. Pretty remote forest road driving which took a long time but it was very pretty and we only got lost once. The cabin is really a just big kind of smelly house. the Smell either comes from the propane powered appliances or a cleaning solution. Anyway by the end of the 2nd day we were used to it. It was buggy in June. And the front door is super janky and irritating. The adjacent creek was gorgeous. In fact the entire Eagle Creek is beautiful. We took the trail at the end of the road for a day hike but it was tougher than I was expecting. If you go, at least try to make to the big bridge a half mile in or so. It was all switchbacks after the bridge and I bailed out.

A great spot with a lovely meadow and easy access to nearby trailhead. The oven was not working (baking part) when we were there and the kitchen is pretty dark - bring a lantern or two.

This is a gorgeous spot, and we come with horses, so we've been willing to put up with the inconveniences. The USFS suffers from budget cuts, so few funds are available to maintain the cabin, and the amenities are declining. Up until about 5 years ago, the cabin and corrals had running potable water and a shower and toilet. Now all water has to be hauled in. We miss the water. We couldn't get the oven to work. Several of the hanging propane lanterns don't work, but it was summer, so daylight helps. We had to clean up the cabin when we arrived, but that is the fault of the previous users. We left it cleaner than we found it. I'm sorry to see such a marvelous resource allowed to decline.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

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!!!
