Caribou Creek Cabin Details

This small backcountry cabin is located off of Nabesna Road. Visitors heading to Caribou Cabin should take Caribou Creek Trail, located at milepost 19.5, for three miles. Reservations are required for this cabin and can be made six months in advance by calling (907) 822-7253. This cabin has two twin sized bunks, a wood stove, a table, porch, and pit toilet. The cabin is nestled between high ridges with beautiful views of the mountains. Important information about all park cabins: These cabins are all rustic backcountry cabins. Most are old mining, trapping, or hunting cabins that are located on public land and have come under the protection of the NPS. There is no running water, plumbing, or potable water on premises. There is a pit toilet outhouse at each cabin and each cabin has basic furnishings including wooden bunks, tables/chairs, and wood burning stoves. Each cabin is free to use (except Esker Stream Cabin), though it is recommended to bring camping gear in case the cabin is already occupied on arrival. Maximum use for each cabin is seven days in a thirty day period. Consider bringing firewood since dead or downed wood is not always available, as well as dishes, supplies, and bedding. Visitors must pack out all garbage and leftover food.
