About Little Bear Cabin

Overview

Little Bear Cabin was built in 1938 and still looks much the same as it did back then. It is available year-round for recreationists, as well as for those who seek a quiet mountain retreat.

The cabin can be accessed by vehicle during the summer and fall (June 16th - December 31st) weather and snow conditions permitting, but winter access requires snowmobiling or skiing 10 miles from the paved road.

Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities.Recreation

Several multi-use trails and roads crisscross the area, ideal for motorcycle and off-road vehicle riding, mountain biking and hiking.

Winter activities include snowshoeing,snowmobiling and cross-country skiing. The area surrounding the cabin is popular with hunters in the fall.Facilities

The cabin has a bunk bed downstairs and two beds in the loft, each with mattresses, to sleep up to four people.

There is a wood cook stove which provides some heat, but it may not be sufficient in extremely cold temperatures.
