Campground details
Setting
Zip's Place Cabin is a rustic shelter accommodating up to eight guests, located 48 miles east of Hungry Horse, Montana. Built in 1954 on a 1937 homestead, the cabin fronts a large grassy lawn and backs up to lodgepole pine, Douglas fir, and a small stream near the Great Bear Wilderness and Flathead River. The site includes an electric stove, microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker, heat, cooking utensils, and a vault toilet. Well water is pumped on site from June through November. Summer access includes parking 120 feet away, while winter requires a one-mile hike, ski, or snowmobile trek.
Getting there: From Hungry Horse, travel east on U.S. Highway 2 for 48 miles, to mile marker 191. Travel south on Geifer Greek/Lodgepole Lane (a gravel road that veers left initially). Follow the signs to the cabin. During the winter months or when the road conditions are impassable, renters must park at the designated parking area and hike, snowmobile, ski or snowshoe about a mile to the cabin. Please respect the adjacent property owners and do not block the driveway.
