Esker Stream Cabin Details

This beachside cabin has the most amenities in the park and requires a fee and reservation. This cabin is popular with hunters so reservations are encouraged and available six months in advance. Unlike the other cabins in the park, this cabin is heated with an oil stove using kerosene (fuel is not provided). The cabin can be accessed by float plane in the adjacent lake requiring only a quarter mile hike, there is no airstrip close by. The cabin has four twin-sized wooden bunks, a table and bench, and a pit toilet. 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. 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.
