We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It was in the best location, near hiking trails and places to fuel up, get ice and quick lunches or dinners. The beds were comfy, the place was super clean and organized! We noticed the time and effort that the owners put into making the home feel warm and inviting, from the coffee, coffee creamer, laundry pods, to the nice towels in the bathrooms to the sheets and pillows on the beds. Our grandson loved having the basement all to himself!

We had an amazing time in Alaska, celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary, and we absolutely loved staying at this beautiful chalet. The host thought of everything to make guests comfortable and communication was fantastic! The sunroom was my favorite. You can sit out there anytime of the day. The hot tub is also a plus! Location is perfect, secluded enough for privacy but also close enough for shopping and dining. I highly recommend this place!

I don’t think I’ve ever loved a space more than this cabin. It was the PERFECT stay! The view of the cabin alone immediately put us in the Alaska mindset, but the views from the back and the hot tub were next level. The hot tub was the perfect touch and truly made this feel like the quintessential Alaskan getaway.The location was also wonderful — it was easy to access with our rental car and conveniently located right next to a paved bike path, which made exploring the area even more enjoyable.This was the kind of space where you could tell the owner has stayed there and truly enjoys it themselves. The host thought of everything, down to the smallest details, to make guests feel comfortable and at home. I honestly could have moved here and called this place home.The upstairs beds were so comfortable that we melted right into them after long days of exploring. We absolutely loved having two full bathrooms, and the washer/dryer was perfect for a quick laundry refresh in the middle of our trip. The covered back porch was so inviting, and the little fireplace stove on the lower level made the space feel warm and incredibly cozy.The host also thoughtfully provided a wonderful selection of coffee, along with sugar and creamer, which was such a nice touch. This cabin was everything we hoped for and more, and we would absolutely stay here again. In fact, we will plan our next Alaska vacation around staying in this cabin again!
