About this property

Centrally located private chalet w/ Hot Tub and amazing views!

Three chalets: The Steller Jay chalet is calendered and booked here. The Wild Rose chalet at VRBO 150525; the Eagles Aerie chalet at VRBO 462399

The three chalets are each private and secluded on five acres of hillside among spruce, hemlock, birch and willow trees over-looking Trail Lake in the CHUGACH NATIONAL FOREST. Each has it's own hot tub, high speed internet, an amazing view.

CENTRALLY LOCATED in the middle of all there is to do on the KENAI PENINSULA:
15 minutes to Cooper Landing; 30 to Seward; 1 hour to Whittier, Prince William Sound, Alyeska, and Soldotna & the Lower Kenai; 2.5 hours to Homer; and 90 minutes from Anchorage.

Relax surrounded by snow-capped mountains, overlooking turquoise-colored Trail Lake.

The world-famous KENAI & RUSSIAN Rivers are just minutes away - world class fishing for salmon and trout, or rafting and bear viewing.

KENAI FJORDS NATIONAL PARK, EXIT GLACIER & HARDING ICEFIELD, and saltwater fishing on Resurrection Bay are also only minutes away.

Superb HIKING/mountain BIKING trails through lush forests to alpine meadows blanketed with wildflowers beside crystal clear snow-melt streams, waterfalls, ponds and lakes surrounded by glaciated mountain majesty are minutes away.

Our beautifully appointed, comforts-of-home-and-then-some chalet is your ideal home base for adventures on the Kenai Peninsula.

THE PERFECT WINTER RETREAT

SNOWMOBILING, Nordic and Alpine SKIING and BOARDING just out the door for your daytime adventures in the world famous Chugach Mountains back-country.

Relax watching the sunrise and alpenglow paint the mountains the full palate of Alaskan winter colors.

Soothe your winter aches in the HOT TUB under a dazzling star-lit sky- and if you're lucky, catch the NORTHERN LIGHTS. The hot tub is the best place to catch seasonal meteor showers and the aurora away from city lights.

We had the best time in this location and in this chalet. It was central to so many wonderful spots to explore and also had their own amazing views and lake access. It was perfect for our large family and we can’t wait to come back!

Perfect Alaskan getaway!

We came to Moose Pass for spring break from Anchorage. It was 4 of us, and our two chihuahuas. The view is absolutely stunning (even when we live in Alaska and see the beautiful mountains on the daily, this view was still breathtaking). The kitchen was well stocked. We cooked several meals and were never lacking anything we needed. The BBQ worked great. The place was clean, family and pet friendly. The bedding was comfortable and we finally got a good night's sleep! The hot tub was relaxing and our entire stay was just fantastic. We will definitely request to book again the future. Thank you for a great stay!!

Moose Pass is the perfect base for the activities we planned in Seward. The host was very responsive to all my questions, and the Stellar Jay chalet was clean and equipped with all the amenities our active family of five needed for a great vacation.

Felt like visiting a friend

The chalet was super cozy and clean. The beds were comfortable. We all felt like we were visiting a friend. The pantry had all the stock spices you needed to relax and make breakfast. We caught lots of fish so we came "home" and cooked. The host added a special touch the first day we were there. Thanks for a memorable stay.

I would stay here again

Everything you could want in a vacation rental. Beautiful lakeside mountain view, privacy, responsive host, homemade breakfast surprising us on our arrival, canoes available for stunning paddling, plenty of nearby hiking, short drive to Seward. We loved our stay and hope to return in the future!

Alaskan cabin in the woods

My family and I were so happy with this property. We wanted to stay somewhere that felt more Alaskan than a hotel in town. The cabin was very spacious we all had our own beds for a family of 5. The view from the balcony was stunning overlooking a lake and misty mountains. We found homemade creme brule french toast in the fridge which was a delightful surprise. The host was easy to communicate with. This was our favorite place we stayed while on our trip to Alaska!

Just right

staying here was just right for our trip. The chalet was very clean and met our needs. The location was the best as it saved us time going between towns such as Seward and Soldotna. Highly recommend. Gary the owner is on top of it.

Great place to stay. Fully equipt!

we had a wonderful stay for Christmas. It was even decorated with carols playing when we arrived. So warm and cozy and plenty of things to do outside. Only downside is that its pretty expensive after you add up all the fees and taxes.

Wonderful Cabin!

We spent Thanksgiving at the cabin and it was great! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our Thanksgiving dinner, the beds and rooms were all comfortable, living room was cozy with a great view of the lake and the hot tub was an added bonus! We spent some time cross country skiing, back country skiing was not far away and we drove into Seward to visit the Sea Life museum. We would absolutely recommend this cabin!

Fabulous scenery and location

Our cruise was cancelled so we flew into Anchorage and booked this home. Gary met us at the door and showed us around. The house was perfect and beautiful. It was about 1 1/2 hrs from Anchorage and 1 hr from Seward. We were able to see sites in Seward and in the area. We would have loved to stay longer but we had other commitments. The views of the lake and mountains are breathtaking. Gary was very nice and visited a few times as we were leaving. We would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves coming to the area.

Perfect location

It was the perfect location on the Kenai Peninsula with lots of activities less than an hour away in each direction. The chalets are close enough to be convenient if you had a big enough group and wanted to occupy multiple units. However, they are spread out enough that we only knew other units were occupied when we saw another car. Gary, the owner, was easy to communicate with and gave us a thorough walkthrough when we arrived. The furniture was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked including nonstick pans and sharp knives, which are frequently missing from other rentals. Perhaps most importantly in an Alaskan summer, the bedrooms had blackout curtains. I thought this would be standard in Alaska, but our next rental house near Fairbanks did not have them. We will definitely be staying here again on our next trip to Alaska.
