Big Shaheen Cabin

Big Shaheen Cabin offers an unparalleled wilderness escape in the heart of the Tongass National Forest on Admiralty Island. Situated on the shores of the seven-mile-long Hasselborg Lake, this site is a prime destination for those seeking solitude and a deep connection with nature. As part of the Admiralty Island Canoe Route, it serves as an ideal base for adventurers looking to explore the pristine Alaskan backcountry via canoe or float plane.

The cabin provides a rustic lodging experience surrounded by dense forests and breathtaking water views at an elevation of 237 feet. Guests can spend their days fishing in the lake, hiking the surrounding trails, or observing the abundant local wildlife. The area is specifically designed for those who appreciate a remote, off-the-grid environment where the primary focus is on outdoor recreation and quiet reflection.

This site is best suited for experienced outdoorsmen, paddlers, and adventurers who are comfortable with remote, primitive conditions. Because the location requires access via float plane or canoe and offers no hookups, it is not suitable for traditional RV travelers. It is an excellent choice for those wanting to experience the raw beauty of the Alaskan wilderness.
