Mammoth Cabin in UT -- Campground & RV Camping

Located at 8,600 feet in a spruce, fir, and aspen forest, this historic administrative site features two 1930s ranger cabins: Mammoth Cabin and Lake Cabin. Overlooking sagebrush valleys and timbered slopes, both cabins include full kitchens, indoor plumbing, flush toilets, showers, and wood or gas heat, though there are no refrigerators. Each cabin sleeps up to eight people on bunk beds. RVs and travel trailers are prohibited. The Arapeen OHV trail system and non-motorized fishing at Gooseberry Reservoir are a short distance away.
