General info

Located on the east side of the Big Belt Mountains, this cabin presents a wonderful getaway. A fairly large two-room cabin with a deck greets visitors and offers plenty of room. Thompson Guard Station provides a wonderful forest setting for nearby hiking, fishing, hunting and horseback riding. A series of small lakes are also located in the area. One lake, about a mile south is easily reached by vehicle. The other lakes can be reached by horseback or hiking. The cabin does have stock corrals. The small community of White Sulphur Springs is located about 17 miles away. Access to the cabin during the summer months is good and can be reached by driving through White Sulphur Springs or from the west over Duck Creek Pass (Road #139). During winter, snow closes the road but access from the east is maintained to within about 4 miles of the cabin. Snowshoes, cross-country skis, or snowmobiles will get you there in the winter months. Generally, Road #139 opens to vehicles about mid-June.
