Deep in the Tongass National Forest on Prince of Wales Island, Eagles Nest operates as a Forest Service campground from mid-May through mid-September. The campground accepts reservations and sits within the expansive forest system that covers much of Southeast Alaska. Campers can access nearby cabin rentals including Control Lake Cabin just over a mile southwest. The remote island location requires ferry or float plane access, making this a destination for those prepared for backcountry-style camping. Forest Service management typically means vault toilets and basic amenities rather than full hookups. Those seeking additional options can explore campgrounds around Craig, the nearest community with services.
