This is a great cabin. We had very stormy weather but still could roam and boat around and explore the area and had a wonderful time. The wood was stocked good and the cabin and outhouse clean!

Great cabin with amazing views! The mooring buoy made securing the boat really easy.

Beautiful setting. Nice gravel beach. Cabin was very spacious. First floor had 2 bench bed platforms with trundle pull outs, loft slept 4 easily. Lots of pegs for hanging. Great for kayaking.

This cabin was the ultimate get away for me and my 3 friends. With four there was more than enough room to hang and sleep, the bear box was big enough to store 3 rubber made containers and our yeti cooler. just be aware that the tides can drain out up to 100 feet from the cabin front door.

Steamer Bay Cabin is located on the northwest corner of Etolin Island on the east side of Steamer Bay. The cabin is accessible by boat or float plane only, and is 27 miles by boat or 25 miles by air from Wrangell.
Use caution when anchoring the boat due to the rocky shoreline. Check local tide tables to determine the best time for arrival and departure, ideally at high slack tide. There is a mooring buoy anchored in the bay for cabin guests only.
