We had a wonderful stay at this property. The property manager was there to greet us as she was finishing up the final details for our stay. The location was beautiful with plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked and we had a great time during our stay.

We enjoyed this property! It is close to all of our planned activities in Hatcher Pass. The house is spacious and has a great gameroom and a hot tub. We were so busy we didn't have a chance to try out the hot tub, but we'll stay and extra day here next time. The property is very private and comfortable. We slept well after a very full day outdoors each day.

Nice spot in a nice town

The house was great for the number of people we had. The deck was nice to hang out on and the kitchen was great for cooking meals. The property and rooms were clean and comfortable. Only issue we had was on with the Vrbo side of things and once I have communication with Jeremiah, everything went smooth and he was very helpful.

Host was very responsive with any questions or concerns. The only issues were the property was not stocked with toilet paper and paper towel. There was also some clothing items from previous guests that were found.Otherwise, everything was really great and everyone had a phenomenal time.
