Sleep In Style at Samuel P. Taylor State Park

You like Samuel P. Taylor State Park.

But you don't like the idea of sleeping on the ground, even in a tent, especially at this time of the year.

Not a problem.

Yesterday the state officially opened 5 new, prefabricated 12' x 20' cabins that have indoor lighting, electric outlets, a wood-burning stove for heating (but not cooking), and bunk beds,. The cabins can sleep up to 5 people.

Sorry, there's no built-in stove (and you'll have to cook outdoors), refrigerator, or dish-washer, and no in-door "facilities."

It costs $100/night to stay in one of the cabins, located in the Madrone campground area, at the foot of Mt. Barnabe and on the opposite side of the road from the park entrance.

Here's the Marin I-J story about the opening ceremony for the cabins.
