Upstairs, enjoy a cozy king bed, a pocket twin, a table for four, and a guest Mac with fast Wi-Fi—plus an elevated viewing space that’s ideal for catching the Northern Lights. Downstairs, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, a hot shower, and year-round climate control that makes settling in easy. Step outside onto an expansive deck, knowing the most affordable dog sled tours and mushing experiences are right here on site. You’re not just close to the adventure—you’re already home.

About the deck: it’s so large—24 by 76 feet—that we call it the SuperDeck. Outfitted with four outdoor seating chairs, a Solo Stove, and plenty of firewood, it’s built for long Alaskan nights. This is the perfect place to watch dog teams go by, take in endless sunsets, look for the Northern Lights, or simply unwind by the fire after a full day of adventure.
Trailside Alaska is also known as “M73 Airbnb”, a name carried over from our original launch in 2020.

We had a great time during our stay! Check in/out was super easy, and the property manager came by to show us how to work the stove. The house was beautiful and cozy, and we loved the views out the windows from the second floor. If we come back to the area we will definitely try and stay here again!

The king size bed was very comfortable.There is a Coffee shop next door with yummy shakes, drinks, food options and dog treats too! Located just off the highway but also felt secluded and safe. The owners are very nice and accommodating and we really enjoyed our stay. This will be our first pick when returning to Alaska! Thank you Kale and Carrie!

Thank you, Gregg, for your great review and thoughtful feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay at Trailside Alaska. Normally, there’s so much snow this time of year that we tuck the grill away for winter, but with this unusual year, we’ve kept it available. We’ve already added the grill picture back to the site to make sure future guests know it’s an option. We’d love to host you again, and hopefully next time, you’ll get to fire it up and enjoy some grilling under the Northern Lights! 😊🔥 All the best - Kale & Carrie
