"Beautiful hike up to the cabin but it does involve some steep elevation changes. The trail also continues to the right of the cabin and it was beautiful as well but also had some steep elevation changes."

"Nice easy Fighting Creek Trail loop. Not clearly marked, but at the cabin turn since that is the end of the loop. Trail appears to continue up the hill behind the cabin, but it thins out and gets less distinct as you get to the top, looks like people have gone up and turned around only."

"Nice easy walk (non-paved loop) from the Sugerlands Visitors Center. There were some muddy sections, so proper footwear is recommended."

"Nice trail through the woods. It's right behind the Sugarlands Visitors Center. Follow the signs for the nature trail. I wish there were signs at the cabin to tell you about it. Instead there's a sign about a guy named Bob who defaced federal property, got caught, and was fined. That's nice and all, but what about the cabin?"
