kingston cabin near austin nevada

Kingston Cabin is your ticket to some of the most unspoiled outdoor recreation and cultural history in the Silver State. Nestled in the heart of Kingston Canyon (about 45 minutes south of Austin and the Loneliest Road in America), this cozy, two-bedroom cabin offers an overnighter you won’t soon forget.

Tucked in the small hamlet of Kingston (population: less than 150), Kingston Cabin offers that exceptional combination of a perfectly furnished stay in a sublime location.

Cabins conjure images of rustic woods, overstuffed bedding covers, and cozy evenings. Kingston Cabin fits that bill and then some. Two nicely sized bedrooms with queen-sized beds flank a well-stocked kitchen and comfortable living room. The kitchen has just about everything you’d need to cook your favorite meals (sans groceries). Two coffee makers are available, and one comes with several types of beverage pods for guest use. There are some basic items such as salt, pepper, and cooking oil, plus pots, pans, dishes, utensils, and the like. The spacious bathroom has standard amenities, and the whole cabin is decorated exactly like it should be: homey, with cute and clever touches.

One thing the cabin doesn’t have is Wi-Fi, which might be the most blissful part of your stay. Instead, take advantage of the on-site board games and DVD library. Outside, there’s plenty of parking, an outdoor firepit (when fires are seasonally permitted), and a large deck for taking in those Big Smoky Valley sunsets.

Things to Do Near Kingston Cabin

And speaking of, the Big Smoky Valley is renowned for its beauty and recreation opportunities. Right out the cabin’s front door is the town’s stocked fishing pond. To the west of Kingston lies the Toiyabe Range with Kingston Canyon, Groves Lake, and the now-deserted Kingston Guard Station. To the east is Nevada’s geographical center, Spencer Hot Springs, Toquima Cave, and Hickison Petroglyph Recreation Area. Head south for Arc Dome Wilderness, tasty sandwiches at Shoshone Market just before Carvers, and a grocery store in Hadley. And did we mention how incredible the stargazing is in this remote locale?

Kingston Cabin has a two-night minimum, but after just five minutes, you’ll wish you’d booked an entire week. The only other business in town is the Lucky Spur Saloon, a perfect place to meet other Kingston lovers. Hunting season is a popular time for Kingston, too, with many hunters camped in the canyon and hunkered down in town. Winters are definitely felt in this location, but if you book a trip and the snow flies, look on the bright side: You’ve got the ideal cabin from which to watch nature’s work.
