We had an excellent stay! The place was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. Having games and access to the Grizzly Fitness Center was incredibly convenient and made our stay even more enjoyable. Haley was an amazing host, she went above and beyond to be helpful and made the whole experience seamless. We would absolutely recommend this place to everyone and would love to stay here again!

We absolutely loved this cabin! Haley was an amazing and responsive host and the cabin came well stocked with basic items and it was a very nice temperature even in the cold with a wind storm. The view of the frozen lake and mountains is also a perk! Definitely rebooking in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed the cabin by the lake, and will be back. Working with & communication with the owner was top notch. They go above and beyond to be sure you have the best experience you can. Such a cute, quaint, clean, & cozy cabin which is close to all, but feels miles away.

This property is ideal for a couple wanting to have peace and quiet and then venture out for site seeing. Ideal location for north of anchorage. The accommodations were comfortable especially the bed. Had fun watching float planes take off. Haley had so many thoughtful items for us and was quite helpful helping us find her location. Would stay again in the future.
