This cabin is not on a trail system so it should be very private. The cabin’s beach is well protected. The cabin is a standard Panabode and is in good condition. Take offs from here are interesting because the lake has very steep sides and is very narrow. Would not like to do it in high winds. Like most cabins in the Chugach there is a shortage of wood, I take in a couple of bundles in the floats when I go to these cabins. If you reserve this cabin make sure you call it Swan Lake West so it is not confused with other Swan Lake cabins.
