I don't have any firsthand knowledge of kook lake, but I worked in SEAK for a few summers and concluded that anywhere with quick access to the subalpine is a prime hunting spot, as long as the weather isn't hot.
You might look into Black Bear Lake cabin on Prince of Wales island, as it's at 1600 feet while the kook lake cabin is almost at sea level. That means less climbing every morning.
Kook lake, being right by the ocean will have salmon fishing in addition to hunting, if you're looking for an all-round sporting trip.
Why are you bowhunting? Bring a rifle if you want success. You'll have to do some long difficult stalks with a bow. Almost nobody hunts with a bow up there.
