This cabin was very well kept by previous guests and is very roomy. Would sleep 6 nicely (four would be best ). The rowboat had not been secured well and had washed all the way down the lake and down the Russian River to its confluence with the Kenai River and so a new one is being ordered. That was the one disappointment, exploring the lake with the boat would have made it an excellent rating. But beautiful location and area.

Wood stove is in very good shape and needed to dry out after rain most of way in. Thankful for dry wood and kindling left by stove, we left as we found it. Winter trail very well marked.

Great cabin. Hike took us 1hr 15min with our packs. Beautiful setting! Enjoyed the canoe and chance to get on the lake and explore!

We had a nice stay on a stormy new years eve. The cabin was generally good with the exception that the wood stove wasn't properly drawing air and it was tough to keep going. Also, the seal on one of the windows has gone bad and there was a very cold draft of air. Several previous visitors have mentioned these issues in the cabin logbook. For as much money as Chugach National Forest makes off the public use cabins, I've noticed that they generally provide surprisingly little attention to maintenance issues.
