1 site ¡ Lodging

Explore the Copper River Delta from your base camp in the Chugach National Forest.

It’s not remote wilderness, but it is conveniently located near the Mckinley Lake Trail in a dense stand of hemlock and spruce. There’s a good chance you’ll spot moose, bear, deer, and excellent coho fishing spots abound throughout the nearby forest. The primitive cabin sleeps up to six, so pack up your friends and your sweet libations, and hit the trail on your way to Mckinley Lake Cabin.

Once run by the state but is now managed by VAA. The beautiful Blueberry Lake campground on Thompson Pass has spectacular 360-degree mountain views. 20 sites are available on a paved loop road near the lake. Vault toilets and a water pump are available for use. Several sites work well as group camping sites. There are no RV hookups or pull-throughs. The McAllister cabin, at the mouth of Shoup Bay Marine State Park, is best accessed by kayak or boat. There is a narrow, tide dependent channel that leads to the inner lagoon where Moraine and Kittiwake cabins are located. Kayaks recommended for access.
