Shady Bend Cabin Located just 1 Mile from Wolf Pen Gap South Trailhead

Cute, secluded cabin in the Shady Mountains — just 1 mile from the South Wolf Pen Gap trailhead.

Shady Bend cabin is nestled in a beautifully wooded, private setting with a convenient circular driveway and paved highway access. Wildlife is frequently seen on and around the property, making it a peaceful mountain retreat. We also have a Bunkhouse on the property than can be rented for larger parties or as another option.

There’s plenty to do on-site: enjoy horseshoes, cornhole, a game of pool, board games, or relax with TV and movies.

The cook shack features a gas grill, perfect for outdoor meals. Unwind in the evenings around the fire pit, and enjoy a well-lit property for nighttime comfort.

The pavilion offers plenty of seating and picnic tables for gatherings. For ATV and side-by-side riders, trail access is only 1 mile from the property — no hauling required.

While you’re here, explore nearby attractions like Little Missouri Falls, Bard Springs, Shady Lake, and Albert Pike Recreation Area. The newly renovated Queen Wilhelmina Lodge is also a scenic drive, especially beautiful in the fall.

Location of cabin is great! For riding trails or going into town, this cabin sits on a beautiful property that is close to both. We did have a small hiccup upon arrival but, the host corrected it immediately and we were extremely satisfied! We will stay here again! Thanks to the host for helping us make this a great trip!

Great location - about a mile from the South Trail head, private, quiet, clean, well maintained, and all the amenities: covered pavilion, grill, horseshoes and fire pits. Host communicated everything we needed, and was very professional. Cabins were clean and spacious and had everything we needed - cleans beds, clean bathroom, nice kitchen area and well stocked coffee bar! And we had wifi! We enjoyed seeing deer, pheasants, and wild turkey. This is a great spot to stay and We are looking forward to returning to these cabins.
