About
Stub Creek Cabin is located on the north end of the Laramie River Valley in Roosevelt National Forest, approximately 75 miles from Fort Collins. This historic cabin was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1936 and originally served as lodging for the district ranger's family and Forest Service employees. The cabin is considered architecturally significant as a representative of the first use of hewn face logs, which later became a standard design in the U.S. Forest Service. The cabin sits in an open area at 8,400 feet elevation, surrounded by spruce, fir, and lodgepole pine trees. Stub Creek passes nearby and is a short walk from the cabin. The facility is fully furnished and equipped with modern amenities including indoor plumbing, electricity, a fireplace, and a complete kitchen with stove, oven, refrigerator, microwave, and all necessary cooking utensils and dishes. Two bedrooms each contain two single beds with mattresses, and a futon couch in the living room provides additional sleeping space for up to five guests total. The surrounding area offers abundant recreational opportunities including hiking, horseback riding, backpacking, mountain biking, hunting, and fishing. Off-highway vehicles are permitted on nearby designated roads, though not on-site. Wildlife viewing is excellent, with moose, deer, elk, bear, and numerous bird species inhabiting the area. The cabin is accessible by vehicle year-round, though it operates seasonally. Guests must bring their own bedding, towels, toiletries, and food.
Directions
From Fort Collins, take I-25 to the Mulberry Street/Highway 14 exit. Travel west on Mulberry to Riverside Ave, then north on College Avenue to Highway 287.

Go north on County Road 103/Laramie River Road for 16 miles to County Road 99 (may say County Road 90 or 190 on some maps). Turn left and continue two miles to the gate.
