Property Description
Charming Historic Forest Service Cabin on Hot Springs Creek. Discover the perfect getaway with this picturesque and serene vintage forest service cabin, nestled along Hot Springs Creek in the Cleveland National Forest.

The current land lease runs through 2028, with an approved extension until 2048, providing long-term enjoyment.

Inside, you'll find a cozy wood-burning fireplace, perfect for creating lasting family memories. The thoughtfully designed layout includes four sleeping lofts, one of which accommodates two, allowing the cabin to comfortably sleep 7–8 people. Enjoy the tranquil sounds of the creek and birdsong from your doorstep, making this an ideal writer's or artist's retreat. The cabin also includes satellite internet service, blending rustic charm with modern convenience. Whether you're seeking a peaceful weekend escape or an inspiring creative hideaway, this one-of-a-kind cabin offers the perfect blend of history, nature, and relaxation.
