About Elfin Cove

Tucked along the northern shore of Chichagof Island, Elfin Cove is a tiny, peaceful harbor surrounded by the Tongass National Forest. There are no cars or paved roads, so getting around means strolling along wooden boardwalks and hopping between docks. Accessible only by floatplane or boat roughly 85 miles west of Juneau, this quiet fishing outpost offers true off-grid living amidst wild coastal scenery.
