About this property
Red Sled Lakefront Cabin
A great home base for taking advantage of all Talkeetna has to offer, or as a quiet retreat from the world in your own private environment. The “Red Sled” is perfect for sharing with others or for a family, with a new queen bed on the main floor along with the bathroom, and a second queen plus a twin in the loft bedroom which is open to main floor below. Lake views abound everywhere in your cabin, or step out onto the spacious covered front porch to take in the sounds of nature while enjoying the lake. In summer listen to the loons; in winter catch a midnight view of the aurora borealis. The Red Sled offers a private lakefront retreat in the woods year-round.
Take advantage of the fully-equipped kitchen including full-size range/oven and refrigerator, grill out in summer, or sample the restaurants in the area. You’ll have access to a washer and dryer, smart TV and wi-fi; dogs are allowed with prior approval from the host. There’s ample parking along with maximum privacy found at the end of a curved birch-lined driveway.
Gather around the campfire after a day of hiking or fishing in summer); enjoy a ski, skate, snowshoe, or kicksled in winter. The area has a variety of trails (groomed in winter) and lots of options for outdoor activities summer or winter. There’s even a unique playground for children and a covered ice rink near downtown Talkeetna.
The Red Sled is conveniently located just a mile off Talkeetna Spur Road for easy access but with the quiet that only being far enough removed from traffic can bring. In the immediate area are Denali Brewing’s Tasting Room (with wood-fired pizza and fresh salads), Cubby’s Grocery (3 miles), and Moore’s Hardware (which carries much more than hardware!). Downtown Talkeetna is just 10 miles away – an easy drive for shopping, dining, flightseeing, fishing, attending events and other activities.
Make some memories with your friends or family at the Red Sled!
