About this property

Lakeside Retreat with fantastic views

Come relax at the end of the road in our historic lake front home. Built in 1958 it is one of the first homes on the lake. Recent updates make it a comfortable stay for 2-3 couples or a family to enjoy fantastic views, play on the lake, or just relax on a large deck. We also have a patio with a fire pit and wood provided. Swans in the spring and fall, ducks all summer, eagles perch in the trees in the front yard. We have kayaks, paddle boats, a rowboat, canoe and a large dock, for your use, to enjoy the lake. We provide fishing gear for summer and winter. The home is located between Palmer and Wasilla, about 45 minutes from Anchorage airport. Come enjoy your private, waterfront home while you visit Alaska.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
