The cabins were originally built in the 1950s and still exemplify the architectural style of that time, even with some upgrades throughout the years. They feature a furnished kitchen, bathrooms with showers, porches with mountain views, and outdoor grills. Opportunities for fishing are on the property as well as hiking and scenic walks. The Tall Pine Store is on the property and sells fishing supplies, ice cream, and other necessities.
