This free dispersed camping area requires a five-mile paddle from Whittier to reach by boat. The US Forest Service maintains several tent platforms, two toilets, and bear-proof storage boxes at this Prince William Sound location. Fresh water is available on-site but requires boiling or filtering before use.
Weather conditions can change rapidly on the water, with waves building quickly according to experienced campers. The site serves as a strategic launching point where Prince William Sound opens up, offering paddlers multiple route options for extended trips. One reviewer reports camping here dozens of times across the May through August season, indicating reliable access during warmer months.
