  Moose Creek Cabin

  Great Forest Sevice cabin, very easy to get to.

  Moose Creek cabin is a nice fairly large cabin.  It features a kitchen area, living room and two bedrooms each with two beds.  Cabin has electricity but no running water.  An outhouse is outside.  A nice metal fire ring is available with two picnic tables.  Fire wood is supplied during the winter months.  Wood stove is in the living room area to heat the cabin.  Kitchen is fully stocked with plates, cups and silverware.  A small propane stove is available but you need to bring your own propane.  If you need additional water the near by campground has a pump for water when open.  We took our Girl Scout Troop here in June and they had a great time.

  Strawberry Cabin

  Worth the hike for a winter advanture

  Staying at Strawberry lookout cabin in December was a great experience, well worth the 1 mile uphill hike to the cabin.  Our Venturing Crew stayed the night after pulling gear in a sled to the top in light snow.  Everyone had a great time at the cabin.  The cabin has a wood stove and firewood was provided.  Keep the fire small or you will cook in the little cabin, even when its cold outside.  A propane stove was provided but you will need to bring fuel.  The propane lantern was broken, but luckily we took along our own light sources.  Pots, pans, dishes and utensils are available in the cabin.  Plenty of games were in the cabinet to keep everyone entertained.  The cabin has two bunk beds, and a table with chairs.  Water is not available so you will need to bring it with you.  A vault toilet is next to the cabin.  Outside has a picnic table next to a fire ring.  Plenty of room if your group is to big for the cabin to set up tents.

  Lost Horse Cabin

  Spacious cabin off the beaten path

  Nice spacious log cabin with plenty of room to roam/hike in the area. Beds for up to 8 people, wood stove and firewood on site (firewood not guaranteed). Large open floorplan (takes awhile to warm up when it's cold out though...).

  Moose Creek Cabin

  Great cabin

  It’s a great cabin it’s super close to the road it has two bedrooms they both have 2 beds a double and a single bed. It does have propane with a small 2 burner stove it also has a microwave toaster and coffee maker. Very standard for these cabins is you bring your linens but the mattress is a mattress not great but it’s a rustic cabin and VERY AFFORDABLE

  Kim's Marina & RV Resort

  1 Star – This Ain’t a Resort, It’s a Biohazard Zone With Wi-Fi

  If you’ve ever wondered what it’d be like to vacation in a post-apocalyptic landfill run by people who watched Green Acres and said,“Hold my beer,” then Kim’s Marina& RV Resort is the place for you.

  We pulled in at 1:30PM—our assigned site already occupied by another camper who kindly apologized. The staff, however, offered nothing. No sorry, no heads-up, no water, no shade. Just a“shrug emoji” in human form. Their own check-in pamphlet said checkout was at 2PM—so why hand us a site that still had a family fully plugged in and grilling hot dogs?

  Meanwhile, my 76-year-old mother (who confirmed the day before that her cabin would be ready at 1:30) was treated like a burden every time she asked if her room was ready. FIVE times she asked. They didn’t even start cleaning it until 2:40. It was 100 degrees. She waited in that heat like a forgotten prop in a bad country western, and when they finally let her in, the bed was bare and they told her,“Oh—you still need bedding.” Like it was a lemonade stand, not a paid rental cabin.

  The grounds? Picture a campground that moonlights as a junkyard. Dog poop was everywhere. It was like a minefield from the moment you stepped out of your camper to the joke they call a“beach.” And the dogs? Off-leash, wild, and no one batted an eye.

  The plumbing situation? Grab your hazmat suit. The water spigots looked like they were salvaged from a scrapyard, half-stripped, leaking like crazy, and—you guessed it—pooling water under the electric hookups. One sewer cap shot off like a geyser when I touched it. I wouldn’t wash a lawnmower with this setup, let alone plug in my rig.

  The roads were a combo of gravel, pothole dirt, and vague paved patches—but folks sped through it like NASCAR tryouts. No speed limit signs. No enforcement. Just kids on bikes diving for cover.

  The “beach” for kids? There were broken signs with rusted nails still sticking out of them. Nothing says “family memories” like a tetanus shot.

  Bathrooms? Closed when we arrived. When they did open, it smelled like something had crawled into the plumbing and lost its will to live. Didn’t even risk a shower—especially since you have to PAY for one on top of your already steep site fee. Pay to shower in your own stink? Pass.

  Now let’s talk about the nightmare fuel they call a laundry room. Clean and dirty laundry were stacked everywhere like someone gave up mid-fold. It looked like a middle school lost-and-found exploded. Vomit in the utility sink. I wish I was kidding. ONE washer worked, and TWO dryers were broken. Not that it mattered—the pile of abandoned linens made it impossible to find space anyway.

  Oh, and the staff? If the dress code was“backwoods buffet with a side of resentment,” they nailed it. Rude, grunting, eye-rolling, dismissive. One guy looked like he’d used his shirt as a napkin from breakfast through dinner and capped it off with ripped jean shorts straight outta 1987. Customer service was nonexistent, but judgment? Flowing like that busted water spigot.

  Trash? Overflowed all weekend. Piled up 15 feet high and smelled like the opening scene of a horror movie. At night, I wasn’t sure if I heard raccoons or zombies.

  We booked 5 nights. We stayed 5 nights. But if we didn’t have family with us, we would’ve packed up and peeled out of there after night one.

  Bottom line: Kim’s is not a“resort.” It’s a rotting relic held together by duct tape, fumes, and apathy. The only thing elite here is how fast you’ll want to burn your shoes when you leave.

  Never again. Not if it was free. Not if you paid me. Absolute disgrace.

  Douglas Creek Cabin

  Great Little Cabin with friendly neighbors

  Very cute little cabin nestled next to a small creek. The area was very pretty, but had some broken fencing allowing tons of cows to surround the cabin on the morning. Very funny, but a little odd. Trip in was easy enough, road was slightly rutted, but nothing intolerable. A couple bunk beds were in the cabin, and it was definitely warm enough to survive.

  Eagle Guard Station

  Eagle Guard Station & Crow Creek Campground

  A long rough drive, very rocky, narrow roads to site but definitely worth the making! Secluded and serene campsites along Crow Creek with Fishing, there are no bathrooms, dry would fall for firewood, no fountains or water this must be packed in as well, closest store is in Townsend, pests are minimal, mainly mosquitos, lots of sage to burn to keep them away. Shaded grass areas with rock fire pits for camp, everything you want in a camp site with trails and hiking to Eagle Guard Station or Crow Creek Falls!

Water is available at Kading Cabin located across the road from the campground entrance. A small public corral is located across the road from the campground, and there are two horse watering troughs in the campground.

A five mile hike leads to Blackfoot meadows a popular fly fishing location. The campground has been recently cleared of its beetle killed trees making the campground much more open than it used to been, but this is still a nice quiet campground to visit.

  Moose Creek Campground — Helena Lewis And Clark National Forest

  Great cabin

  Gast stove for cooking, wood stove for heat. Shed full of wood, fire pit and vault toilet. Beware of mice nests, otherwise cabin was great. Hiking trail right by the cabin, even found some huckleberry nearby.
