The Coronado National Forest currently has three other rental facilities. These facilities are booked regularly throughout the rental season. A business analysis for the rental of the Kent Springs Cabin shows that people desire having this sort of recreation experience on the Coronado National Forest. A market analysis indicates that the $150.00 daily fee is both reasonable and acceptable for this sort of unique recreation experience.
People wanting to rent the Kent Springs Cabin will need to do so through the National Recreation Reservation Service, at http://www.recreation.gov by calling 1-877-444-6777. The National Recreation Reservation Service charges a $9 fee per reservation.
