I loved staying at Jeff's Wolf Ridge Cabin. Being there at one with the Alaska Wilderness was among the most memorable adventures of my lifetime. Jeff's Wolf Ridge Cabin provides the Alaska Wilderness experience. Levi was waiting at the beach when I arrived, he was very helpful in helping me navigate the trail up to Jeff's Cabin. And when it was time for me to check out, he was very helpful at helping me navigate back down the trail. The trail has a rope to help you pull yourself up the hill and back down and you will need to hold on to this rope. I would give the trail a rating of strenuous (e.g. not easy and not moderate - but strenuous). Be prepared: 1) Again, this is a Basic Cabin in the Alaska Wilderness; but it also provides a $1,000,000 view; and you will have to work for it. 2) I traversed the hill on a couple of separate occasions while I was there, by myself. It took me about 45 minutes to ascend and about 30 minutes to descend. 3) I knew beforehand that all of my belongings - and food - for several days - would all need to fit into a single 80L backpack. I brought one 80L backpack (for up to 5 days stay) and hiking poles. For food, I brought 5 days worth of the 'Backpackers Pantry' meals. 4) Go light on dirtying up the dishes. I boiled rainwater to wash the dishes. Boiling water consumes resources. So go easy on burning through the propane. 5) I boiled water for all of my french press coffee and I boiled water for all of my 'Backpackers Pantry' meals. In 4 days I only used 1 propane canister. 6) Bring the battery bricks for charging your smartphone. I brought 2 of them and I never had to conserve the battery on my smartphone, although I did keep it in airplane mode (just to maximize battery conservation). 7) They have a cell phone boost antenna at the cabin if you need to make a call with your cell phone. You will need to run the generator to generate electricity in order to do this. 8) Go easy on running the generator and don't burn through all of the gas. In my 4 days, I never ran the generator out of gas. The generator was easy to start, like pull starting a lawnmower. It usually starts on the 1st or second pull. 9) With the cell boost, I was able to call my family (my wife, and my mother) every day to let them know how my adventure was going. 10) Again, you will want to be able to bring all of your belongings in one trip up the hill, in one 80l backpack - per person.

Staying at Pepper Creek was the highlight of our trip on Alaska. Cabin super cozy and even a little nicer than the pictures. Few minor things that we let the host know about that could be improvements, but that’s with anywhere you stay. Location is incredible.

The place of the cabin is wonderful and there is so much to see. The cabin is great and looks like in the photos. There is an great Trail right behind the cabin and the hosts are super kind and helpful and there were always there for my questions. Thank you a lot for this wonderful stay!

Our stay at the Fox Den remote cabin on Resurrection Bay was nothing short of amazing. The property manager, Levi, was fantastic and incredibly helpful, truly making our experience exceptional. The wildlife was abundant, with sightings of eagles, hummingbirds, sea lions, and otters adding to the natural charm. The property itself was impeccably clean, and the hiking trails felt like wandering through an enchanted forest, complete with well-marked paths. The beach was breathtaking, featuring a stream, sea stars, and stunning views of the ocean and mountains. Our sea kayaking adventure, guided by Levi's expertise, was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Communication was superb from pre-booking to the end, and we feel like we've made a new friend in Levi. We also enjoyed watching Jeff on "Building Alaska." Relaxing by the fire pit made for delightful evenings, and the cabin was cozy and spotless. I highly recommend this property for a unique and unforgettable stay, just a short Seward water taxi ride away.

Staying at the cabin is such an amazing experience. The location is stunning and the cabin is gorgeous! This was the place we were most excited to stay at during our trip, and it did not disappoint! Will definitely be back one day!!
