Polk Camp
Polk Camp is a three bedroom cabin located in Polk Inlet on Prince of Wales Island in southeastern Alaska. This camp once served as housing for U.S. Forest Service timber staff. There are plenty of places to view wildlife in the area, including an estuary just south of the cabin. Anglers will find that Dog Salmon Creek has an excellent run of sockeye, coho, chum and pink salmon, trout and Dolly Varden. Dungeness crab abound. Hunters can take advantage of the long seasons; bear season occurs during spring and fall, and deer season is open from late summer through late fall. All-terrain vehicle enthusiasts will love the numerous ATV trails surrounding the cabin (get map from Craig or Thorne Bay Ranger District).
Polk Camp has a large kitchen with a full size propane oven/stove, running water (see note below), plenty of counter space, and a full bathroom with shower and toilet. Wood may be available but cannot be guaranteed. Be prepared to cut your own. Bring your own sleeping bags, pads, dishes, cleaning products, paper products, and fire starter.
Polk Camp is an ideal spot for a family reunion, wedding, or a weekend with your friends.
