Alaska Outpost Cabins

You can look far and wide, but you will find very few if any venues like this in remote Alaska! Outpost cabins are a very popular concept throughout Canada and in other regions and states that have expansive wilderness areas with room to explore. Outposts provide an upgraded alternative to camping and are usually located on lakes or rivers that provide a variety of outdoor activities. The popular term for these accommodations is "glamping," which is the new norm in comfortable off-grid adventure travel accommodations. The cabins have all the spoils, with the exception of full running water and plumbing systems. Safe drinking water is flown in and restroom facilities feature a contained, scent-free dry flush toilet and/or modern outhouse. Outpost cabins are fully furnished and fully stocked with all the basics of a little home, so you are completely self-sufficient, warm and safe in the midst of the wilderness. Our Alaska outposts have many comfortable extras such as memory foam mattresses, alternative heat sources, an assortment of Alaska books, games, card tables, etc. The cabins are privately owned, available as fly-in vacation rentals to a set number of 2-4 guests.

The Pioneer Outpost: The Pioneer outpost is a restored vintage 1950s homesteader cabin located just 6 miles north of Wilderness Place Lodge on a small lake within easy walking distance of our salmon and trout river. This destination offers the perfect balance of a solitary lakeside cabin retreat with blue ribbon river fishing featuring trout, grayling and salmon. A foot trail connects the lake cabins with the river system, a moderately sloped trail approximately 1/4 mile in distance. There are also kayaks and a canoe to explore the lake. The property offers great views of the surrounding shoreline and Mount Yenlo in the back drop. Pioneer cabin adventures are offered as guided adventures. Your personal guide will orient you to your cabin and the surrounding area and provide assistance with accessing the river and productively fishing it. Your host guide stays at a separate cabin out of site of the Pioneer cabin to assure your privacy and assure you are alone in peace and solitude. Plan your days as you please and relax and take in the beauty of this special place. On your final morning, your guide(s) inflates a raft and you will float/fish your way 6 miles downriver to Wilderness Place Lodge. Truly this is a one-of-a-kind experience for those seeking an exceptional Alaska fishing venue in a remote, private setting. The Pioneer cabin is featured in many of our unique adventure bundled packages.

Solitude Island Retreat: Solitude Island Retreat is a privately-owned, remote fly-in wilderness vacation destination. Enjoy a convenient 10 minute float plane trip from Wilderness Place Lodge to our private 4 acre island on a beautiful wilderness lake (we include float plane taxi service). Our personal, private brand-new cabin has electricity and climate control heat with a twin and queen bed with comfy memory foam mattresses in the upstairs loft. The cabin is located just a stone-throw from the lake shore and our large floating dock. Easy access for all! This is a peaceful do-it-yourself wilderness retreat ideally for couples with space available for a child or two upon request. This is an extremely unique experience and a comfortable way to see real remote Alaska. This takes "Glamping" to a whole new level. The cabin does not have running water or indoor plumbing. Note this is glamorous camping in a nice, new cabin but not quite all the luxuries of home. There is a nice outhouse with a view and we will provide you with ample drinking water. A dip in the lake is the perfect way to clean off and cool down! This is a peaceful place, so we hope that our guests come in seek of solitude and do their part to preserve it. We take care of all essentials such as cookware, dinnerware, food, potable water, beverages, utilities, etc. Please inquire for a full breakdown of amenities, itinerary and accommodations. This is really a soulful place you must experience and we welcome you!
