Nestled within the beautiful Wrangell-St. Elias National
Park & Preserve, Kennicott, Alaska, we are proud to offer
this privately owned cottage as part of your vacation of a
lifetime. This historic cabin was once part of the Kennicott
Copper Mine that flourished in the early 1900s.
This beautifully restored structure is one of the most
unique lodging choices in the Kennicott- McCarthy area. #17
Silk Stocking Row was renovated in 1996 to its original charm
including the exterior red color that all Kennicott Mine
buildings were painted.
This quaint cabin is one of the remaining supervisors
dwellings that once belonged to the mining company. It was
built in 1918 and was inhabited until 1938 when the mine
abruptly closed, and all employees and their families
departed.
While in Kennicott, you can enjoy such activities as
glacier
hiking, ice climbing, historic mine tours, flightseeing, and
guided backpacking tours. Come to historic Kennicott, stay with
us and enjoy a true Alaskan adventure.
