Stone Cellar Guard Station Cabin
Stone Cellar Guard Station is a remote cabin located just outside the boundary to the La Garita Wilderness area in Saguache Park, an enormous and breathtaking intermountain grassland. Located close to the Continental Divide, this cabin affords visitors seeking solitude and seclusion an opportunity for a real Wilderness experience. The cabin is located in a meadow with Saguache Creek flowing through it, affording visitors excellent fishing right out the back door. The cabin is also located near the Stone Cellar Campground (approximately 1/2 mile away). In the fall, this cabin would also make a great big game hunting camp.
