About Breiland Slough Cabin

Escape to the untamed wilderness of Kupreanof Island at Breiland Slough Cabin, where solitude meets adventure in Southeast Alaska's pristine landscape. This remote retreat invites you to disconnect from the modern world and immerse yourself in nature's rhythm. Wake to the calls of waterfowl, spend your days fishing pristine waters or tracking wildlife through ancient forests, and return to your cozy cabin equipped with comfortable double bunks and a warm oil stove. While the experience is authentically rustic—you'll need to bring your own drinking water, heating oil, and cleaning supplies—the rewards are immeasurable: uninterrupted stargazing, the chance to spot black bears foraging along the shore, and the deep peace that only true wilderness can provide.
Breiland Slough Cabin offers cabin lodging and space for pitching tents outdoors, accommodating a range of camping preferences.
