Overall excellent

Beautiful, private location. Attentive hosts that respected privacy. Clean and well-stocked accomidations, great location far away from tourist centers, surprisingly fast wifi for location, and tons of wildlife right out the back deck. I will absolutely be back!

anniversary get away

clean and in a beautiful setting! Well worth the extra driving to get to. It had everything we needed. The only reason I give 4 stars for representation was I wasn't completely clear that it was a ladder to the loft not stairs. The ladder was just fine and we had no issues getting up and down. Beds were comfortable and would definately stay again.

Exceeded Our Expectations!

The cabin sat tranquilly remote on the property with only views of the Alaskan nature. Walking paths were mowed to allow for safe exploring. The lake on the property made for a beautiful backdrop for sunrise pictures. The cabin itself has a well-outfitted kitchen which was helpful since we like to cook our meals in rather than eating out. The queen beds in the loft were very comfortable and we slept well every night. Our hosts respected our privacy and were very responsive to any of our questions. They helped make our stay perfect!
