Newly built Eagle Cabin
Park Ranger, Eric Hanson, jokes that when asked, the famous flying squirrels (which can be seen in the photo launching off of the Ranger's House chimney) give two thumbs up to the new cabins in Wilgus State Park. When pressed, he admits that they always give two thumbs up when flying off the roof.

Nonetheless, the beautiful new cabins, Eagle and Osprey, have just been opened and are ready for visitors. Similar to the cabins in other parks, Brighton, Button Bay, Gifford Woods, Grand Isle, Half Moon, Lake Carmi, Little River, and Ricker Pond, Wilgus' cabins offer room for up to four guests on bunk beds and a futon or sleeper couch. A table, two chairs, an electric outlet, a covered front porch, and outside fire ring with a cooking grate all come with it too.
