This hut is one of the best in the Appalachian Mountain Club Hut system. Two co-ed bunk houses can sleep up to 48 people with washrooms and composting toilets. The main lodge area has a kitchen with a wood stove, which caretakers staff during the full-service season, providing family-style breakfast and dinner. It is a great place to sit at the picnic tables and enjoy the view of Lonesome Lake.
