The cabin was great for our group of 6. The landing was somewhat muddy and it was difficult to climb up the bank with our gear. But once near the cabin, everything was great.

Cabin is in excellent shape and well take care of. The scenery was beautiful in the area and access to the lake was awesome. There were a number of downsides though - there was no shade or overhanging trees. When we came, it was in the middle of a heat wave, so we hacked a path to the backside of the cabin and spent most of the afternoons back there using the cabin for shade. The river level also rose significantly so there was zero fish caught out front (not even a bite). The trail that leads to the lake north of the cabin was overgrown (Forest Service came in and bushwhacked the whole path while we were packing up to leave, unfortunate they came in on the last day of our trip). The lake itself was beautiful, and the only fish we caught were caught there (cutthroat). You can also expect a lot of local traffic on the weekends if the weather is nice (30+ boats a day going by) and about a third of that during the weekdays. All in all I enjoyed the trip, however if you're looking to fish, go to Mt. Rydna cabin - if you're looking for seclusion, charter a float plane and go to a lake.

Address:
P.O. Box 51
Wrangell, AK, 99929
United States
Located on the north side of the Stikine River near Figure 8 Lake (Twin Lakes), in the Stikine-LeConte Wilderness. The cabin is 17 miles from Wrangell, accessible by shallow draft boat or float plane during moderate to high river levels. A minimum 16-foot river level is generally needed for float plane landings. Low river levels limit small boat access as Hooligan Slough becomes shallow or blocked.
A tide of 14 feet or higher is required for a shallow draft boat to cross the tide flats. The river is normally ice-free May to October. Please check local conditions ahead of time by calling the Wrangell Ranger District at (907) 874-2323.
