About the host
Hosted by Jeff
I am a retired I/T Professional with a personality & my wife Patty is a Physical Therapist. I've lived in Alaska for 39 years and love the outdoors and in particular being on the ocean. We have 3 grown kids and are blessed with 1 Grandson who visits us regularly. We travel frequently and my wife and kids are bilingual. (I am monolingual). My wife is someone everyone seems to love and I've been described as an acquired taste. Fortunately it usually takes a short time to acquire that taste. Jeff
Why they chose this property
It seems like everyone who visits comments of the view and the huge yard everyone is free to use. We have seen Moose, Bears, Lynx and assorted other wild life roaming in our yard. There are many places near by to hike and explore. We are glad to share our experiences with people and to also leave them alone if they wish to explore Alaska.
What makes this property unique
We've been known to fix people up with bicycles, canoes, binoculars and even fishing poles as well as advice on places to see and things to do. Alaska is our home and has been for decades.
