Ferryman's Cabin

Sleeps up to 4, a short walk from the park entrance just north of Rika's Roadhouse next to the Tanana River (Mile 274.5 Richardson Hwy.). Drive-in access; park at the far end of the lot near the restroom. Heated by an electric heater - one of the only electrically-heated public-use cabins in Alaska's state park system. Rika's Roadhouse cafe and gift shop (on the same park grounds) is open mid-May through mid-September only. Pets must stay leashed. No direct Reserve America booking link is published for this cabin - search for it by name at alaskastateparks.reserveamerica.com or call the reservation center at 1-844-351-9733. Like every Alaska State Parks public-use cabin, it comes with wooden sleeping platforms, a table, and chairs or benches, plus a nearby outdoor latrine - no running water or indoor plumbing. Bring your own sleeping bag or bedding, cooking stove and fuel, cookware and utensils, and a 9-volt battery for the smoke detector. A natural water source is usually nearby but must be purified before drinking.

$85/night (Alaska State Parks' own published cabin rate). Reserve America adds a non-refundable $5 transaction fee per booking (a $4 fee applies to date changes made at least 3 days before arrival).
