Musick Guard Station, Forest service cabin in Umpqua National Forest, Oregon.

The wooden two-story cabin stands at 5,000 feet elevation between Fairview Peak and Grouse Mountain, surrounded by Douglas fir and spruce forest.

The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed this guard station in 1934 to house fire crews patrolling the forests near the Bohemia mining district.

The station bears the name of the adjacent Musick Mine, which produced substantial quantities of gold during the late 1800s and early 1900s.

The accommodation includes wooden platform beds, a dining table, chairs, and a wood-burning stove, but lacks electricity, water, and mattresses.

From June to October, visitors can rent this National Register of Historic Places cabin for overnight stays while exploring nearby mountain trails.
