The cabin offers stunning views of Chilkat Inlet, Rainbow and Davidson Glaciers. A variety of wildlife can be seen throughout Chilkat State Park and the cabin offers nearby access to Chilkat Inlet and a variety of recreational activities to include snowshoeing and back-country skiing in the winter months.
