Stub Creek Rental Cabin is a Forest Service cabin in the Canyon Lakes Ranger District of the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests in Colorado, about 45 miles from Idaho Falls, Idaho. It sits at 5,100 feet beside the Ske River in Swan Valley, and the surrounding area is set up for fishing, canoeing and wildlife viewing. The cabin has flush toilets, and overnight stays cost $125 per night. No campsites at this location are listed as accessible. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July highs around 79°F with lows near 56°F, while winter highs stay around 40°F. That station sits about 1,600 feet higher than the cabin, so temperatures here run warmer. Stub Creek Cabin is just 0.1 mile away, and Browns Park Campground is about 1.2 miles off. The North Middle Mountain Trail and Link are both within about a mile and a half.
