Charming old cabin. looks just like it did 40 years ago when I was there last. Must bring firewood. The instructions on the rate of kerosene was off. For 3 days we burned through 5 gallons on the low setting and had to turn it off at night to conserve. Outhouse is a little further away than I remembered. The fish like to bite at evening time.

The weather was outstanding, fishing was excellent in the lake and outflow river. Mouse ran across my guest back in the middle of the night.

The cabin is great with a great set up on the rock above the lake. Definitely bring a kicker to put on one of the two skiffs, so you can explore the rest of the lake. The walk down to the inlet is lovely - bring bear spray!

Enjoy!

If I rent again in the fall (after Aug 1) I think I'll always book three nights to ensure I have a reasonably good shot at at least two nights.

Otherwise, literal best cabin ever.

Except the rowboat oars really suck so bring a motor. :)

The cabin is a beautiful stone and wood cabin in an amazingly beautiful and quiet spot. We loved every minute of it. It is a great location with a short trail to the inlet and so much opportunity for boating and enjoying the great outdoors.

This may have become my new favorite Tongass NF cabin. Incredible location and breathtaking view, excellent seaplane dock for safe mooring, and an amazing historic cabin. We also appreciated the fireplace. Nice job Forest Service. Keep it up and keep those fly-in cabins! A real treasure.
