About this property

Welcome to the Fiddle Creek Cabin near Hatcher Pass, Alaska

The Fiddle Creek Cabin offers all the amenities of home, only a short distance from some of the most popular recreation areas in Alaska!

Walk, ski, or bike from your cozy cabin door to the newly developed Government Peak trail system. Hike to the fireweed fields and waterfall or all the way to the summit on well-marked trails.

A 5-minute drive will take you to the Hatcher Pass public recreation area famous for a variety of activities: The fresh white snow is great for cross country and down hill skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, and snow-shoeing. Our 19.5 hours of daylight during the summer months provide opportunity for berry picking, fishing, bird watching, paragliding, sightseeing, golfing, or gold-panning! The Independence Mine State Historical Park is a must-see for visitors intrigued by Alaska's gold mining past.

After adventuring, return to your comfortable "base camp" in its quiet neighborhood at the foot of the mountain. Whether you like to heat up easy snacks or prepare seven-course meals, you can do it in the Fiddle Creek Cabins' modern kitchen. Outside, there's a BBQ grill and a fire pit with a breath-taking view of nearby mountains. Or you can relax inside with Netflix on the flat screen TV and Wi-Fi for all your devices. Enjoy hot showers and fresh clean towels and bedding to complete your rest!

Whether you are an avid outdoorsman or just traveling through the Palmer-Wasilla area looking for an overnight in our beautiful woods, The Fiddle Creek Cabin is for you. Just 10 miles from down-town Palmer or 20 miles from Wasilla, the cabin is available for one or more nights' stay.

THE ALASKAN MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING AND YOU MUST GO.

About the host

Hosted by David & Heather Farmer

Host profile image
David & Heather, along with their three kids, love to enjoy the many things that Hatcher Pass has to offer. They like to ski, bike, and hike right from their back yard. They bought the five acre lot and immediately began building in 2006. The most recent building project has been The Fiddle Creek Cabin. Much of the lumber used to build the cabin is from spruce cut logs which were harvested locally and sawed by David. Heather is the interior designer and decorator. Both David and Heather have had lots of helpful hands as this has been a family project. They are sure you will enjoy both the location of this cabin as well as the unique details that The Fiddle Creek Cabin has to offer such as the arched bridge, fire pit and a covered porch.

Why they chose this property

The best part about the property is the stellar mountain view of Government Peak where the reflection of the sun changes the view multiple times throughout the day.
