The cabins at Tom's Lake include multiple beds, tables, and chairs with woodstoves for heating during cooler months. "The cabin is great for a family. We brought our kids and they loved it. Having no electricity was great and no running water added to the 'camping' experience," notes one visitor about Tom's Lake Cabin.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. McKeever Cabin offers a more primitive experience, requiring a 1,000-foot walk from the parking area in summer months and approximately a mile walk or ski during winter. In contrast, the cabins at Pictured Rocks RV Park and Campground provide more modern amenities. Reservations are typically required, with many locations booking up quickly during summer months. According to one camper, "We stayed in a cabin with a newly remodeled bathroom, which was very nice. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was nice too."
Most forest service cabins include basic furnishings but require visitors to bring their own bedding, food supplies, and lighting sources. At Tom's Lake Cabin, guests should prepare for no electricity and no running water, with the water pump located about 50 yards downhill toward the lake. Wood is typically provided for heating stoves at rustic cabins like McKeever. At more developed sites like Superior Times, bathrooms with showers are available. For cabins without electricity, visitors should bring lanterns and flashlights, as interiors remain dark even during daylight hours. One guest noted that Mckeever Cabin "is not on Google Maps so I had to plug the coordinates from Recreation.gov into the Maps program."
