About
Dry Creek Guard Station is a small Forest Service administrative facility situated in the Fishlake National Forest in Piute County, Utah. Located approximately 21 miles from Marysvale via Monroe Mountain Road and Dry Creek Road (FR071), this two-room cabin sits at elevation in a remote area of the national forest. The guard station features modest accommodations including one twin bed, two bunk beds, and a basic kitchen area. A vault toilet is available on-site, though no water is provided. The facility was built to support Forest Service operations and administrative activities in this remote section of the Fishlake National Forest. This guard station is designated for administrative use only and is not available for public rental or camping. Unlike other Forest Service guard stations and cabins in the region that can be reserved through Recreation.gov, Dry Creek Guard Station remains restricted to official Forest Service business and personnel.

Continue straight as the road becomes the Dry Creek Road (FR071) for 11.5 miles. Turn left on FR070 for 2.3 miles. The Guard Station will be on the left.
