Virginia Lake Cabin

Virginia Lake Cabin offers a quintessential Alaskan wilderness experience, providing a secluded retreat accessible primarily by floatplane. Located ten miles east of Wrangell on the mainland, this USFS-managed site sits at an elevation of 169 feet, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding rugged landscape. Whether you are looking to explore the dense forests or simply enjoy the tranquility of the shoreline, the location serves as a perfect base for outdoor enthusiasts seeking a true escape from civilization.

The terrain around the lake is ideal for those who enjoy active pursuits, with dedicated hiking trails and direct fishing access right at your doorstep. While the site is primitive and does not offer utility hookups, it is equipped with essential features including fire rings to help you enjoy your evenings under the stars. Visitors should plan to bring their own supplies, including firewood, and be prepared for a self-sufficient experience in this remote environment.

This location is best suited for adventurous tent campers and those comfortable with backcountry travel who are looking for a unique, off-the-grid getaway. Because access requires either a floatplane ride or portaging watercraft, it is an excellent choice for experienced outdoor adventurers and families who are well-prepared for the logistical demands of the Alaskan wilderness.
