About this property

Kenny Lake Getaway - Gateway to Valdez / Kennicott / McCarthy / Copper River

**Welcome to Green Gables Acres: Your Wrangell-St. Elias Basecamp**

We call our place Green Gables, and in the Alaskan summer, you will quickly see why.

Nestled in the peaceful homesteading community of Kenny Lake, Green Gables Acres is your perfect wilderness retreat. Whether you are seeking a strategic basecamp for exploring the vast Wrangell-St. Elias National Park, a comfortable layover on your road trip, or a prime spot for the Copper River salmon run, our family-friendly property offers a little taste of heaven.

Enjoy a straightforward, relaxing stay where you can recharge after a long day of travel with the spectacular Chugach Mountains as your backdrop.

**The Space & Sleeping Arrangements**
Our unique property layout provides distinct spaces to gather, relax, and rest, making it perfect for families and groups.

* **The Main Shop Space:** Features two comfortable Queen beds in a spacious, open setting.

* **The TV Room Hangout:** Tucked in the back, this cozy entertainment room doubles as a third sleeping area with a plush bed. It even features a convenient drink station for your morning coffee or evening tea.

* **The Top Floor Apartment:** A private, cozy upper level that houses the home's main living amenities.

**Home Comforts & Amenities**
We want you to feel right at home while exploring the Last Frontier. The property features:

* **Fully Equipped Kitchen:** Perfect for prepping road trip snacks or cooking up a family dinner.

* **In-Unit Laundry:** An absolute essential for refreshing your gear after days of hiking or fishing.

* **Full Bathroom:** Clean, comfortable, and stocked with the basics.

**The Homestead Experience**
We invite our guests to do more than just sleep here—we want you to enjoy the land!

* **Explore the Grounds:** Take a serene nature walk down to the bluff, or check out the bees and vibrant gardens we work hard to cultivate every summer.

* **Outdoor Grilling:** Fire up the grill for a cookout while taking in the stunning, unobstructed views of the Chugach Mountains.

* **A Taste of Alaska:** We love sharing our homesteading lifestyle, and we warmly invite our guests to taste our own fresh-caught Alaskan salmon during your stay.

**An Unbeatable Location**
Green Gables Acres is the ultimate jumping-off point for your Alaskan adventures:

* **Wrangell-St. Elias National Park:** Positioned right at the edge of the largest national park in America.

* **Copper River Access:** Just minutes away! Ideal for Alaskans hauling in their catch during the summer salmon run, or out-of-state visitors wanting to experience world-class fishing.
* **The Perfect Midway Layover:** Strategically located roughly halfway between the historic mining sights of McCarthy/Kennicott and the beautiful coastal town of Valdez.

Whether you are pulling salmon from the Copper River, hiking glaciers, or simply needing a practical, comfortable stop on your great Alaskan road trip, Green Gables Acres provides exactly what you need.
