Lynx Lake Cabins — Nancy Lake State Recreation Area

Nancy Lake State Recreation Area is different from most Alaskan park areas. It is one of the few flat, lake-studded landscapes in Alaska preserved for recreation purposes. The recreation area's clear waters are ringed with unspoiled forests, and provide tranquil settings for canoeing, fishing, hiking and camping. In winter, the rolling topography is ideal for cross-country skiing, dog mushing and snow machining.

The use and discharge of a bow and arrow or trap for the purpose of lawful hunting or trapping is allowed in the Nancy Lake State Recreation Area, except within one-quarter mile of a developed facility.
