GETTING HERE!
By Car
MAP here.
From Haines Highway, take 3rd Street and head south (the fire house is on the corner--go past it and up the hill). Third Street becomes Mud Bay Road all the way to 7.5 mile Mud Bay. Enjoy the scenery along the way: you will pass Pyramid Lake, the Mt Riley Trailhead, the Cannery on Letnikoff Cove, Chilkat State Park and Mud Bay. We are one mile past the Chilkat State Park turn--continue past it to Mud Bay.There is a cul-de-sac at the end of Mud Bay Road. Viking Cove has a private drive, with a sign on a green fence just before the cul-de-sac, on the left hand side of the road. Please take this private road all the way onto the property. Parking is available in front of the big barn. Guests may park closer to their homes for loading/unloading. To help gauge your distance, the drive is approximately 15 minutes (if you don't stop to take photos of all the beautiful views)!
