About the host

Hosted by Cynthia Jacobson

Host profile image
We are Tony and Cynthia Jacobson, a lifelong Alaskan couple who raised three beautiful girls in this home. After they grew up and flew the coop we decided to continue the good life in remote Alaska. This gave us the chance to offer our Wasilla home, filled with our extensive Alaskan art, artifact and literature collections, as a vacation rental. Tony is a private pilot and we travel back and forth from our home near Skwentna, Alaska in our Cessna 180 with our silly beloved yellow lab Dog. We love the idea of sharing our love of everything Alaska with you!

Why they chose this property

Raven's Flight, nestled in the foothills of the Talkeetna Mountains, is just minutes from a wide variety of Alaskan activities. The Skeetawk Ski Resort and the Historical Hatcher Pass Independence Mines are only a few miles up the road. You won't need to go far to get up close and personal with nature, fishing, hiking, birdwatching, wildlife viewing, flight/sightseeing, foraging, rock hounding, mountain and rock climbing and glacier viewing opportunities abound! Outdoor enthusiasts will find white water rafting groups for hire and watercraft, snowmachine and ATV rentals. The opportunities for adventure are unlimited. Working while you vacation? We offer a dedicated work space with desk, office chair and printer in a quiet hallway away from the main living area.

What makes this property unique

We chose to live in the foothills of the Talkeetna Mountains because we wanted our kids to grow up close to nature and the outdoors, yet still close to their schools and the urban amenities. We feel that makes this a great location for a vacation rental as well, a place to relax between exploration and adventures, rural and urban; we also offer a dedicated work space if you need to work while you play!
