This is a unique recreational experience of staying in a historic Forest Service cabin while providing funds for the ongoing maintenance and renovation of these historic buildings. The guard station cabin is located at Mirror Lake and is approximately 32 miles from Kamas Utah and 58 miles from Evanston Wyoming. It's just off the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway which cuts through the Uinta Mountains, known for their abundant recreational opportunities and scenic beauty. Mirror Lake offers great canoeing and kayaking opportunities. Anglers enjoy fishing for rainbow trout. The lake is open only to non-motorized watercraft. A gravel-surfaced interpretive nature trail circles the lake.
