About West Swan Lake Cabin

West Swan Lake Cabin is in a very remote area on the Kenai Peninsula of south-central Alaska. Swan Lake is just steps away from the cabin, with great fishing and boating opportunities. There is no trail access to this cabin. Cross country travel in this area is very difficult. This cabin is reachable only by float plane during the ice free seasons, and can be reached by snowmobile, hiking or skiing when the lake is frozen and travel is safe. Visitors are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities.

Summary

AI generated

The West Swan Lake Cabin offers a clean and updated retreat with available firewood for guests. However, some amenities, like the boat's oars and locks, are in poor condition, making boating difficult. Access to the cabin can be challenging due to a lack of clear paths and directions.

Swan Lake was partially frozen over. Was unable to land floatplane on lake or access the cabin. Oh well. Out the money for the reservation.
