My golden retriever pup, Maggie, and I had a great time in McCarthy! Communication with the owners was great. The staff was super accommodating and the space was perfect for our visit. Cozy, quiet, peaceful. So much to do in town and in nature. Thank you! We'll be back (and next time, I won't lose my phone)!

Shuttle service was excellent, as was communication. The cabin was well appointed with necessary items. I would recommend hooks and/or bats on the walls for towels, jackets etc. also chairs to sit outside the cabin. Perhaps mosquito head nets?

Cabin in the woods

My only complaint was the outhouse was ridiculous. It doesn't even have a door for privacy. It has a see through curtain. To use it at night you would have to take a short walk into the woods to use it. They need to build one with a little more privacy. The beds were exceptionally comfortable. No microwave or refrigerator. It is definitely a cabin in the woods. We had a great time.

Nice place to get away from it all but be prepared because you really will be getting away from it all. No power outlets other than some legacy USB ports. You will have to bike to town unless you don’t mind a mile walk (it’s often pouring rain ) Otherwise, the staff is extremely attentive and cabin was spotless.

Loved staying at Blackburn Cabins. The cabin was absolutely charming with thoughtful amenities. The bed was comfortable with nice linens, the outdoor shower was a treat, although low on water pressure. Definitely staying there again.

Everything was as described. They did a great job on the Cabins set up. We used everything (showers, loo, heat, bikes, etc) and everything worked. Was lovely to stay in the town of Blackburn! Only difficult thing is getting in touch if you don't have Verizon.

Rustic but clean and comfortable log cabins. My wife and I and our two kids had a wonderful time. We stayed two nights but wish we could have stayed longer. We loved having the bicycles available to ride into town. Also had fun hiking to the toe of the glacier to see ice bergs into the lake. So cool! Staff were friendly and helpful. We’ll definitely stay here again on our next trip to Mccarthy.
