LegendMoose 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.
LegendStaying 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.
RangerNice 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...).
ScoutThere are a lot of cabin rentals in western Montana. This is one of the easier ones to access. That being said, DO NOT attempt it in a car. You need HIGH CLEARANCE. And forget about winter months unless you intend to snowmobile or snowshoe in.
Facilities are rudimentary, and in the summer months, there’s a huge fly problem. Bring everything, including propane cylinders.
But for the price, it’s a fun excursion, even if you end up deciding to sleep in the SUV. I did, and didn’t regret it one bit.
LegendA 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!
