Anglers and paddlers gain direct river access at Eagle Beach State Recreation Area, a forested campground managed by the US Forest Service within Tongass National Forest. The facility accommodates RVs up to 35 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections, though campers should prepare for rough access roads leading to the sites.
Sites range from heavily wooded to more open areas that allow for solar panel use and satellite internet connectivity. The campground provides pit toilets and water with boil advisories, but lacks trash service and dump stations. Black bears frequent the area, with recent sightings of bears grazing near campsites. Cell service remains unavailable throughout the property, making this location suitable for campers comfortable with off-grid conditions and wildlife encounters.
