Alaska, America's most northern state, is a land of spectacular scenery, incredible wildlife, flora, fauna and friendly folks. Each year Alaska welcomes thousands of visitors from all over the world. Accommodations are as diverse as the majestic mountain views, ranging from luxury resorts, fine hotels to remote mountain cabins.
The park department of the State of Alaska offers eight ice huts and 60 cabins that are available for rent by the public. The cabins are located in 18 state park units, as far south as Ketchikan, in Southeast Alaska, and as far north as Fairbanks, in the interior of the state.
The cabins are simple one-room units with bare bunk beds, benches and a table. You bring your own bedding and cooking equipment. The cabins are rustic and do not have indoor plumbing or electricity.
