About this property
Family Cabin in the Woods, See the Northern Lights
Are you looking for the Alaskan charm of a log home, privacy, and endless fun and adventures? This is the real Alaskan experience. Experience life without running water. Use an outhouse. Explore nearby nature trails- walk the dog, take a hike, or ride a bike.
The Wolf's Den is the quintessential Alaskan cabin. You’re invited to step back in time to a simpler era. Watch the wildlife, play fetch with your dog, or curl up with your loved one on the edge of the boreal forest.
Enjoy the outdoors from the deck or outside staying warm at the firepit. Enjoying some down time with your significant other. No need for Aurora tours, simply watch them while relaxing on the front porch.
Unplug from the stress of lock-down and politics. Revel in the freedom of no masks. Instead, watch the wildlife, photograph the northern-lights, or play cards with your loved one on the edge of the boreal forest.
Reconnect over dinner made in the fully equipped kitchen. Then, bake brownies, drink steaming coffee and relax by the fireplace.
After dinner, make s’mores on the fire-pit. What better place to enjoy a fire? The fire pit is calling for action! Search for downed wood on the property or BYO found at a nearby store.
The double-bed welcomes you with a fluffy comforter. Several inviting pillow types are available to ensure a restful night’s sleep. Twin bunk are ready and waiting for younger adventurers. Blinds ensure your comfort and privacy, even in the summer’s midnight sun.
The well-equipped kitchen has a stove and oven, Keurig coffee maker, French press, a microwave, hot water-cooler, waffle iron, and a Crockpot.
The counter can be used as a standing desk for working on your computer or sit and unwind at the table.
Snuggle up with a luxurious blanket in the love-seat. Read a novel or connect with friends on social media using the unlimited, WIFI. Watch a movie on the TV.
After walking through the fresh spring air, immerse yourself in a novel. Enjoy the midnight sun dancing out your bedroom window from the double bed. Venture to Creamer’s Field on nearby Musher’s trails.
Comfortable chairs await you on the porch to enjoy the gentle breeze. Sip coffee and watch for wildlife.

About the host
Hosted by Mary
I am highly goal oriented, determined and never let anything keep me from making my dreams come true.
I am married to my true soul mate and have a wonderful 21 year old son. We have 3 dogs and 1 cat.
I love crafting, DIY, learning new things, outdoor adventure, fishing, flowers, gardening and so much more.
I have studied interior design, professional organization, wedding and event planning, floral design, drafting and design and business.
I am a retired pipeline designer of about 20 years, where I worked in West Monroe, LA and Houston, TX. I grew up in a very rural town called Start, LA, where I attended school with Tim McGraw. I lived on a farm and helped raise rabbits, chickens, pigs, horses, cows, ducks, geese, quails, dogs and cats (and the occasional turtle and tadpoles I would catch in the ditch). I was quite the tom-boy growing up.
My husband and I are starting a new chapter in our lives and have recently moved to Alaska. It was a journey just getting here, but so far we love it and have no plans of leaving.
