Upper Ford Cabin Rental

Nestled deep within the Kootenai National Forest at an elevation of 2,984 feet, the Upper Ford Cabin offers a unique opportunity to stay in a piece of Montana history. Originally constructed in 1926, this former ranger station sits near the pristine Yaak River, providing guests with an authentic and immersive Rocky Mountain experience. The surrounding terrain is defined by the rugged beauty and quiet solitude characteristic of this remote corner of the state.

This primitive site is designed for those looking to disconnect and enjoy the outdoors. While the cabin provides a rustic base for your adventures, guests should come prepared with their own supplies and camping gear. On-site facilities are limited to vault toilets, emphasizing the site's back-to-basics appeal. Visitors have direct access to nearby hiking trails and excellent fishing opportunities along the river, making it an ideal destination for nature enthusiasts.

Whether you are an adventurous family looking for a historical getaway or an individual seeking a peaceful retreat, Upper Ford is a perfect choice. The site is accessible by car year-round, offering a versatile escape regardless of the season. Please note that this is a primitive federal site managed by the USFS, so visitors should plan accordingly for a self-sufficient stay.
