What Guests Are Saying
Twelvemile Cabin is a charming retreat in a stunning, secluded location with beautiful views right on the inlet. The cabin is well-maintained, featuring a cozy wood stove and amenities like a kayak and crab pot, though wood availability may be inconsistent. While there is no cell coverage and cooking on the wood stove is not recommended, the overall experience, including wildlife sightings and crabbing, makes it a favorite among visitors.

This was the most beautiful and well maintained cabin I could have imagined. We only stayed 3 nights, but wish we could have stayed a lot longer. It's in a great location on POW and has an amazing view. A great way to get away from it all and truly be alone! Would stay here again a thousand times and hope we can make our way back there again!

Cabin was great, two bunk bed platforms with full on bottom single on top. Wood stove, others had left some Viking Logs/compressed logs from Klawock. Recommended grabbing a box for your trip.
