Kristi, Jade and Nathan,
Thank you for sharing your beautiful property, can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our time there. Cabin was amazing, clean and had everything one could want. Won’t forget the views, the fishing and how peaceful and relaxing it was. What a little gem in Alaska!
This is an excellent property! If you’ve never tried “Glamping” it’s time you give it a try!
Our host, Lachlan, was wonderful and attentive but not intrusive. He was on hand to greet us and help with our supplies coming into camp and for the homeward bound return by water taxi.
We had an opportunity to walked both beaches and a hike up the hill and onto the dirt road headed toward Seldovia.
We had an amazing 3 night stay here. Jade and Nate were so kind and helpful. We used the kayaks and paddle board and enjoyed the views in the morning Ana deveining s from our cabin.
Water was hot and the grill and hot plate were very useful for cooking our daily meals. Place was very clean.
Even saw sea otters, eagles, and a couple of whales!
Highly recommend.
