About 20 miles from Sitka. A boat to Mud Bay followed by roughly six miles of road and trail reaches this west-coast cabin via Iris Meadows. The A-frame has a vertical-ladder loft, dining tip-out, plywood bunk and wood stove. Sleeps eight; $50 per night. Beach aircraft access is tide- and weather-dependent; arrange it with a qualified operator. Rustic bunks have no bedding; bring sleeping gear, cooking supplies and drinking water or a treatment system. Reserve through Recreation.gov and arrange transport separately. Weather can delay remote travel; allow a buffer. Confirm any maintenance closures with Sitka Ranger District before departure.
