Most rustic cabins require visitors to bring water, toilet paper, mattresses or sleeping pads, and all bedding. Guard stations typically have minimal furnishings and primitive toilet facilities. Propane stoves are available in some cabins, but guests should confirm cooking options when booking. Cabins at more developed locations like Flat Creek RV Park include more amenities but still require some personal supplies. Winter visitors should verify heating options, as wood-burning stoves are common in forest cabins. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, visitors should "make sure to bring your own water" when staying at guard stations, as most don't have running water available.
