Red Ives Cabin

Red Ives Cabin offers a truly unique getaway, serving as a historic former ranger station that operated within the St. Joe National Forest for over fifty years. Nestled within the breathtaking landscape of the Rocky Mountains, the site is situated directly on the banks of the St. Joe Wild and Scenic River. This setting provides an immersive wilderness experience, perfect for those looking to connect with nature while staying in a piece of regional history.

The site is well-equipped for a comfortable stay, offering access to flush toilets and showers, which is a significant convenience for a federal campground.

The cabin requires a reservation and a specific entry key code, ensuring a secure and private experience for guests.

This location is an excellent choice for beginner campers or families who want the adventure of a remote forest setting without sacrificing essential facilities.
