About the host

Hosted by Gary Kutil

Host profile image
I am a Life long Alaskan. My family Homesteaded 160 acres in the Mat-Su Valley in 1959 where my father built a log cabin. In those days we lived a Subsistence Lifestyle and lived off the land by gardening, hunting and fishing. Today we use the cabin recreationally, but it still has no running water or plumbing. The Outhouse however has a historic quality about it being nearly 60 years old. :)
I developed a passion for Alaska's hunting and fishing starting at age 6 and continuing to today.
I am a husband of 1, a father of 2, and a Grandfather of 8, all living in Anchorage. :)

Why they chose this property

I grew up in a Log Cabin and always had an itch to build one so in 1999 I built the Eagles Nest. It took 10 months and I remember some cold days of building thru the middle of the winter and the Snowy Owls that would sit in a tree and hoot at me while I was working and a big Bull Moose that charged at me and broke the log railing on the front porch.

What makes this property unique

The views , the quite and the coziness.
