Alaska time! This is a pretty setting, but I just can’t imagine staying there. Would be very peaceful. The cabin was built in 1940. It is located on 1.52 acres in Haines, Alaska. They don’t show much of the cabin, but it is being sold fully furnished. The cabin is situated on Chilkat Lake. One bedroom, one bathroom and 850 square feet. $27,950

From the Zillow listing:
Escape to the Alaskan wilderness with this rustic 1940s cedar cabin, built from old-growth timber harvested right on the property. Offering 850 sq. ft. of insulated living space with a finished loft and retractable ladder, this fully furnished retreat combines history, charm, and comfort. The cabin includes a propane cook stove, wood stove for heat, and is wired for electricity (generator or solar required). Located on the tranquil "Little Lake" section of Chilkat Lake, this property offers over 150 ft. of private lake frontage with glacier-fed water running through the land. With no road access, Chilkat Lake is truly a remote getaway, accessible only by jet boat, floatplane, or airboat in summer, and by snowmobile in winter. In need of repairs, this small cabin offers a unique opportunity for someone with the skills and willingness to take on a project. It could serve well as a tiny house or rural retreat. Despite its current condition, the cabin has strong potential and could be made functional with some dedicated work. This property offers the great getaway-bring your vision and craftsmanship to restore the cabin’s charm. (pictures taken June 2025) Price firm. As is. Activities: Summer: boating, fishing, floatplane access Winter: snowmobiling, ice fishing, backcountry exploring
