Had to cancel due to poor boating weather. Reservations are very difficult to obtain for CNF/Prince William Sound and people reserve cabins and never use them without canceling. A solution to this problem would be to incentivize people to cancel their reservation on a sliding scale of refunding their payment. For example: cancel 2 weeks ahead = Full refund, 13-7 days prior = 75%; 6days to 48 hours ahead = 50%; 47-24 hours prior = 30%Combine this with an expansion of tge wsit list allowing up to 5 or more dares to be selected fir notification AND Create hey page on your website that users could search for last-minute cancellations and you would retain most of the revenue and increase the actual use of the public resource(cabins) and thus public satisfaction with the management of our national forest resources. Please pass this idea on.

The cabin and location were both amazing experiences during our visit to PWS. The cabin was bigger than I expected and was very tidy. There was plenty of room for our group of six adults. As others have mentioned, the stove doesnt put out a lot of heat, but worked well enough for our needs. We loved having the morning sun on the outer beach and evening sun on the other side of the cabin. We had two incredible days of sunny weather so had ample opportunity to do glacier tours and fish. We on had one halibut hook up in three days of fishing, but it was an 80 pounder so took away the frustration. Other than sea otters, we didnt really see any other wildlife or marine life and very few birds. While the bay goes dry at low tide, its not a problem if you are ok with your boat growing dry. It limits when you can come and go, but we made it work.

The work done on the cabin this summer is appreciated.

Oil stove heater is not sufficient heat for the cabin size

Great cabin with a lot of space and boardwalks around the cabin to get to the outhouse. Beautiful views of ocean and lagoon. Much wildlife to view: bears, seabirds, eagles, otters. Good place to launch from for sea kayaking. The kerosene heater was efficient, however may not get hot enough when it gets really cold. It was still nice to come back to heat after a long day of kayaking.

Nice big cabin, the problem is there is no where to anchor safely as the lagoon was empty by low tide. We did some research before deciding to stay in the cabin for one night and ended up anchoring in Hobo bay leaving some folks in the cabin and picking them up in the morning. Hopefully people got the memo and don’t end up in a rough spot

Great cabin. Good shrimping close by.

The cabin and location is perfect we had a good time there for 3 nights. The composting toilet is not good. Its not being used properly cause its very awkward, needs updated. Also, if you burn your paper per the rules you will just run yourself out. I also think that the propane stove is to small for the cabin, turned all the way up it will not heat the cabin enough to dry anything out, which makes staying there in the late fall/winter not ideal. Take more than 1 gal of kerosene per day and leave the heater on high all day.

Incredible opportunity to have your own cabin on the water in a remote area for a very affordable price. So happy that the US Forest Service provides these opportunities for the public. Tips for those who want to go. Bring your own firewood for the campfire and the kerosene stove in the cabin requires about two gallons per 24 hours if running it at a higher setting. Directions for the stove are are hanging on the wall behind the stove and are not with the rest of the paperwork. Plan on rain so you're not disappointed and have fun!

Very nice cabin and outhouse for such a remote location. Recommend remembering to bring lantern and headlamp as the cabin doesn't get a lot of direct sunlight so it can be a little dark inside.

Be aware that the wood stove is no longer in the cabin and has now been upgraded to a fuel oil heater.

Improvements to the cabin are WONDERFUL.

We love this cabin. Watching wildlife is an added bonus. Kayaking around the lagoon is always an adventure, side hikes add more fun. Drinking water is easiest by boat at waterfall in the back of the lagoon. Updates to cabin are great.

@AngelaG996 · Camped on Sep 13, 2019 at Campsite #G5

Harrison lagoon is a wonderful cabin experience! Most forest service cabins are. Get out there and live!

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
