Miller’s
Landing provides chartered water taxi transport to
the Kenai Fjords National Park including the Aialik Bay area,
the Holgate Arm National Park Cabin, the Aialik National Park
Cabin, and the Northwestern Arm area of the Kenai Fjords
National Park. The water taxi is done with our brand new custom
built 32 foot landing craft (taking 14 passengers plus crew).
The drop down bow makes it ideal for loading and unloading
passengers, gear and kayaks easily. The cruise to the Kenai
Fjords National Park is the highlight of the Seward area. On the
trip there, you will often see sea lions, puffins, eagles,
whales, mountain goats and bears. Both of
these cabins are situated near remarkable calving glaciers,
berry patches, and the waters surrounding them have salmon (in
season) and abundant marine wildlife. Miller’s Landing also has
kayak rentals and offers guided kayaking trips (and kayak
lessons too) for those wishing to experience this pristine
wilderness area, rich with sea life, whales, and birds.. |

Derby Cove Cabin
(14' X 18') Caine's
Head
Sleeps 8 (maximum
8) with a maximum stay of 7 consecutive nights. This cabin sits
within spruce and hemlock forest behind a gravel beach. At the
head of the Caines Head trail system, Derby Cove is a quarter
mile from the ranger station. Use the creek that runs in front
of the cabin as a water source. |
 |
 |
Callisto Canyon Cabin (14' X 18')
Caine's Head
Sleeps 8 (maximum 8) with a maximum stay
of 7 consecutive nights. For a water source, there is a small
stream located on the hillside directly southwest of the cabin.
A second water source that is dependable year 'round is
approximately 400 yds. down the beach where a moderate waterfall
empties onto the beach, but access to it must be timed with the
low tide. |

Spruce Glacier Cabin
(16' X 16') Thumb Cove
Sleeps 8 (maximum 8) with a maximum stay
of 7 consecutive nights. From the water, this cabin is located
on the left-hand, or east, side of the beach. A wheelchair
accessible boardwalk leads from the beach berm to the cabin,
approximately 300' back from the steep, cobbled beach.
Wheelchair- assisted access will be
necessary from the beach landing to the boardwalk.
The closest fresh water
source is not accessible to all users, so bring enough fresh
water for your stay if you are unable to access the stream. The
small stream is located on the hillside and is directly east of
the cabin. The stream empties onto the beach by a very large
boulder past the eastern-most barge wreck. To reach it you must
walk out near the shore. |

descriptions of the areas and what activities to do there
(fishing, hiking, berry picking, kayaking, etc.) , please visit

hikes in Alaska is next to the Derby Cove Cabin or Callisto Cabin
