The cabin was well stocked with all the items you would need. It was cozy and comfortable. The location was central to all we wanted to do.It is right outside of Cooper Landing and an easy drive to Seward, Anchorage and a little bit longer drive to Homer, but doable.
We unpacked our bags and felt right at home. A washer and dryer are in the house, which came in handy after traveling for a week. The only down side was there was not a blackout curtain on one of the windows in the main bedroom. We just hung a dark cloth over that window and we were fine. The bed was comfortable the house was warm and the kitchen was well stocked with all the necessary utensils.
The owners have mushing dogs, but they only barked when it was feeding time or when a bear or other wild animal was nearby...which was comforting. One dog, that wasn't a mushing dog, sat at the end of the drive and greeted us when we arrived and came back to the the end of the drive and watched us pack the car as we were getting ready to leave. He just wagged his tail and barked once as if to say goodbye.
We have this cabin rented again in two days time as we make our way back toward Anchorage and I am glad we are going back. As I said, this feels like home and I wish we had stayed here longer! My husband and I have talked and agree that when we make another trip back to Alaska, this will be our home base. We will sight-see and then come back to the cabin each night.
