Afognak Island State Park — Public Use Cabin

Afognak Island State Park, located just north of Kodiak island, encompasses approximately 116,000 acres of the Island. The park is known for its rugged topography, dense old-growth Sitka spruce forests, and natural habitat, but some of the park area is old timber harvest, now allowed to let nature reclaim. The majority of the eastside of the island is State Park, along with most of the northern section.The northwestern region of the island is the US Fish & Wildlife Service's Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge bordered by the state park on the eastern and southern boundary. More than half of the island is privately owned and a permit is required for access to most of the private land. The park is accessible via boat or float plane, but the two public use cabins are on inland lakes and only accessible by float plane. A number of air charters provide service to the park and the public use cabins located at Pillar and Laura Lakes.
