About
Church Bight Cabin offers a true wilderness experience on the remote southeastern shore of Admiralty Island, within the Kootznoowoo Wilderness and Admiralty Island National Monument. The large A-frame log cabin sits on level ground just 50 yards from Church Bight, a small tidal saltwater cove within Gambier Bay. The shoreline is surrounded by thick temperate rainforest of old-growth spruce and hemlock. The cabin sleeps up to 7 people in four single wooden bunks plus a sleeping loft. Amenities include a wood stove for heat, table with benches, cooking counter, and an outside pit toilet. Firewood is typically stacked in a nearby woodshed but is not guaranteed. There is no potable water; a nearby stream is intermittent, and visitors must bring their own water supply or treat any collected water. The area provides excellent opportunities for saltwater and freshwater fishing, including fly fishing for Dolly Varden and rainbow trout in nearby streams, with halibut and rockfish in open waters. Gambier Bay is prime habitat for brown bears, Sitka black-tailed deer, humpback whales, and migratory waterfowl. This is brown bear country and visitors should follow proper bear safety protocols.
Directions
