About

Martin Creek Guard Station is a historic Forest Service rental facility located in the Santa Rosa Range of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest in Humboldt County, Nevada. This remote guard station sits in a mountainous area near Martin Creek, which originates on the east side of Buckskin Mountain at elevations around 8,000 feet. The surrounding landscape features rugged mountain terrain and alpine streams characteristic of this part of northwestern Nevada. As a guard station rental, this facility offers a unique opportunity to stay in a rustic Forest Service building that was historically used by forest rangers and staff. Guard stations typically provide basic shelter and are more suited for visitors seeking a remote, self-sufficient experience rather than traditional campground amenities. The location provides access to the backcountry of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. Visitors should come prepared for primitive conditions and bring all necessary supplies including water, food, and bedding. The remote setting offers solitude and opportunities for outdoor recreation in the surrounding national forest lands. This rental is best suited for those comfortable with rustic accommodations and self-reliant camping.
