Crocker Guard Station
Built in 1912, supporting forest operations until 1981, and refurbished by volunteers in 2011 this unique old residence can be shared with our visitors. This rustic cabin sleeps 10. It's ideal for a family get together, wedding or special event. Many springs support this riparian area nestled in aspen. No water and no electricity make it a perfect location to get unplugged and relax.
If your group needs more accommodations, the Crocker Campground is just a hoot and a holler away.
