Salmon Lake Cabin Thorne Bay

Salmon Lake Cabin offers a truly unique and remote lodging experience nestled in the heart of Prince of Wales Island in southeastern Alaska. This federal site provides a scenic wilderness escape, perfect for those looking to disconnect and immerse themselves in the pristine Alaskan landscape. At an elevation of 161 feet, the area is surrounded by lush forests and tranquil waters, offering a quiet sanctuary for outdoor enthusiasts.

Visitors to this USFS-managed site can enjoy direct access to excellent fishing opportunities and a network of local hiking trails. The cabin serves as a rustic basecamp for those interested in wildlife viewing or simply experiencing the solitude of the Alaskan backcountry. Please note that this is a primitive site with no hookups, and guests must be prepared to handle their own travel arrangements, as access requires a float plane or a combination of boating and hiking.

This location is best suited for experienced adventurers and those comfortable with self-reliant camping. Because the site requires significant planning and carries a moderate difficulty level for access, it is ideal for individuals or small groups seeking a rugged, off-the-grid adventure in one of the most beautiful regions of the Pacific Northwest.
