RESERVE A CABIN
Please do not proceed without first reviewing our cabin rental policies and procedures, which are updated as conditions change.
Booking A Cabin: Follow the link below to access our online booking software. Place standard reservations (within 60 days) online, unless you are booking a cabin within one week's time. Book last-minute reservations (within 12 days) with a volunteer at the Cabin Reservations Desk. See Advanced Reservations for requirements and guidance on how to reserve a cabin more than 60 days prior to the date of arrival.
New! Online booking closes 12 days before rental starts. We are happy to make last minute rentals, but they present challenges for us. All but two cabins require us to provide renters with a key for entry. We need to talk to renters to determine how best to provide that key. If you want to make a rental that starts within 12 days, please call the cabins desk at (703) 242-0315, ext. 102, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
Cabin Reservations Desk Hours: Call us at (703) 242-0315, ext. 102 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Volunteers will be available answer cabin-related questions and assist with last-minute reservations. Don't forget to review and accept our required cabin rental terms of service agreement form below, before calling. For last-minute reservations, be prepared to pick up the cabin key packet from PATC Headquarters, or cover the cost of priority shipping.
