Island Activities:

BEACH COMBING
You never know what is around the corner. Feel like a kid again, or take your kids to create new memories on the many Alaska beaches. Whether you choose to beach your boat on one of the many island beaches or travel just north of Thorne Bay to Sandy Beach at low tide, you won’t be disappointed with the tidepool life nor the treasures one might find hidden from all until your eyes spot it. There also, guided beach tours available to some of the outlying islands.

Please always be mindful of wildlife and exercise caution when going into more remote areas.

Sandy Beach

There is no lack of water access for the adventurous. Prince of Wales Island hosts various vendors for kayak/canoe rentals as well as some guided trips are available. We can recommend the ideal access points.

FISHING

FRESHWATER FISHING/RIVER SALMON RUN
There are all types of rivers and streams to try your luck. One of the best salmon spots during the spawn (late August through September) is just 1.5 miles from the cabin.
Island Processing, located in Klawock, will be glad to process, vacuum seal, flash freeze, and box your catch for the trip home. There is a freezer available with the cabin to store that catch until time to leave.

SALTWATER FISHING
The waters surrounding the west side of the island is home to a variety of sought after trophies! Whether your goal is to land that prize King Salmon, halibut, or a variety of other species which inhabit Prince of Wale’s waters, you won’t be disappointed!

The angler will find a large variety of vendors for day charters. Be sure to check price and compare services which are included in the fee, because they can vary. We encourage you to make your reservations early!
For the experienced boat operator, there are opportunities to rent a boat or skiff. It is suggested that if you plan on renting a boat, that one might check out an on-line Alaska Safe Boating Course.

We recommend that as soon as your dates are confirmed for travel, you should also make your other reservations, i.e., car, day charter, ATV, boat/skiff, kayak/canoe, as availability goes quickly.

We loved this amazing little cabin. It is not luxurious, but that isn’t what we were looking for in this getaway. It’s a rustic cabin, in a remote area. All the amenities were worked as advertised. I do recommend bringing your own linens. There are linens there, but we are somewhat particular about our sheets, and linens don’t take up much space. There is a good grocery store in Klawock.

We stayed here for a week in July. It was absolutely perfect for our vacation. This is not a luxury cabin, but offers the basics with an "off the beaten path" feel. We enjoyed our stay so much and Deena and Dale were so accommodating and kind to us. We would absolutely stay again. Thank you for your hospitality. Prince of Wales Island is a dream

The owner met us at a mile marker on the road and we followed him to the cabin. When we got out of the truck I felt like I was in paradise with a stream burbling and the beauty of the surroundings. The cabin is simple but comfortable and has everything you need. The kitchen is complete with plenty of dishes, coffee filters and some basic spices for cooking. There were plenty of linens and I loved the good hot shower. There is a nice fire pit we cooked steaks over and there was a gas grill we could have used. A freezer i s on site should you need it. Deena was very generous and went above and beyond in helping us. She was warm and friendly. If I come back to this area, I would definitely stay here.

The cabin was so comfortable. It was wonderful to have a full kitchen with all the comforts of home and we really enjoyed the covered area with the fire pit. The Harris River was a short walk away and we really enjoyed the fishing. We had fresh bbq'd fish every night. Deena and Dale were seriously so helpful and responsive, just a joy to work with and the nicest people we've met in a long time. We hope to make another trip next year!!
