Butler Butte Cabin is a Forest Service campground in the High Cascades Ranger District of the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forests in southern Oregon. It is a small site with fire rings at each campsite, and all the campsites are listed as non-accessible. Reservations are required. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Crater Lake show July and August highs around 69°F with only about four wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the low 30s and 18 or more wet days. That station sits about 1,100 feet lower than the cabin, so temperatures at the cabin run cooler. Whisky Camp Guard Station is about 3 miles away. The Bitterlick Trail and the Cougar Butte Trail are both within 5 miles, and Sugarpine Creek, a canoeing spot, is about 4 miles off.
