Salmon Lake Cabin Sitka

Such a cozy and well maintained cabin! The little boat is such a fun way to explore the surroundings, and the trail beyond the cabin is a fun day trip as well. Perfect way to spend Thanksgiving :)

This is a magical place, I try to go every year on my birthday. Bring a head lamp the cabin is dark, fire starter, a chair, and your trout pole !

The cabin and the location are lovely, and all was clean with dryish wood available when we arrived.

The stove needs new firebrick to reduce the amount of smoke it emits into the cabin, but other than that-- all is in great shape!

It was great, the cabin was stocked with dry firewood and some propane for the camp stove.

Great location and facility. Lake could be to0 short for a heavily loaded aircraft. I cleaned the windows, emptied the stove ashes, took out a considerable amount of trash, and swept accumulated dirt from under the bunks. Unfortunately your "guests" aren't good at helping take care of the facility.

Awesome cabin with a sweet raft trip out.

Awesome, dry, and clean cabin! The wood stove worked well, although with high relative humidity it was difficult to dry our gear out even with the stove running all night. If rain is in the forecast it's definitely worthwhile to bring extra base layers. A few of the bug screens could use replacement, but that wasn't a big issue for us.

Lot of bear sign on the trail up to the cabin, but thankfully we did not encounter any bears. Boat looked to be in nice shape although we did not use it. Hike to the muskeg is flat and straightforward following the trail, hike to the alpine southeast of the cabin is a steep bushwhack with only game trails to follow, we found it easiest to start north of the cabin and work our way southeast.

Such a beautiful spot! Cabin was left very clean for us which we appreciated. Seems like firewood may run out/down so plan accordingly. New flat bottom boat great for fishing. Lots of bear scat so be prepared. Loved it!

Hard to beat it. Snow was much heavier in the narrow valley than in town. Highly recommend skipping the first part of the trail by paddling up into the estuary at high tide.

Beautiful destination and an easy hike, 1.5 miles one way to the cabin from the trailhead / mooring buoy. I stayed in mid February and the lake was completely frozen over, we tried to ice fish with no luck. Lots of wood for splitting in the shed despite not being maintained in the winter. A couple decks of cards and pans left there for use. Warm and comfy stay! Would highly recommend staying here. The boat ride through Silvery Bay can be windier than you expect, but we made it there in ~45 minutes with a 25hp outboard.
