USFS Cowlitz Valley Ranger District Bunkhouse Rental - Intent to Sole Source

The US Forest Service is seeking to award a sole source contract for temporary housing services for 12 seasonal employees in the Cowlitz Valley Ranger District. The contract will be for a period of 6 months, from May 1, 2026, to October 31, 2026. The housing must be located within a reasonable commuting distance of the Packwood, Randle, or Morton work centers. The Packwood Station Bunkhouse, owned by Wonderland Hospitality LLC, is the proposed facility for this contract. • The bunkhouse has a 12-bedroom layout, specifically designed for long-term residential support. • The facility is located close to the duty station, allowing for the housing of 12 temporary employees in a single unit. • The contract is for a firm-fixed price, and the government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source. • Interested parties may submit their technical capabilities in writing to Mindy Hickman via email.
