You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Oakley Inn, 3 bedroom 2 bath, sleeps 8

Our cabin in the woods sits in a hilly forest only 7 minutes from downtown Talkeetna. We have an old trail going right thru our property, meaning you don't have to drive anywhere to enjoy miles and miles of fat tire biking, running, hiking, or viewing the aurora borealis. If you want miles of groomed cross country ski trails, the Talkeetna Lakes Park is a mile away and good for a whole trip's worth of fun. Our full kitchen means you don't have to go out, but a vacation to Talkeetna wouldn't be complete without hitting some of our restaurants, brewery, and pubs. And we're happy to inform you that Talkeetna now has a bike and ski rental shop, Talkeetna Gear Shop. We have some serious winter bike trails, too. It's still a secret that we have great cross country ski trails. So if you want a quiet town with plenty of activity in the winter, head this way. If you're coming in the summer, see how many of our local lakes you can swim in (at least 8 for us this year).
During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be close to Talkeetna Historical Society Museum. Enjoy features like laundry facilities. The vacation home includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.

What an incredible, clean and cozy cabin. We stayed as a family - parents and 3 kids, 14-11. Easy to find, easy check-in and check-out. It was obvious the hosts care for the property, their guests and making sure Alaska is well-represented. The Talkeetna town is close and adorable. We cooked, sat by the fire, read and watched movies. My 14 year old told me that he felt like it was an "actual vacation" because it was so relaxing. We saw the northern lights from the driveway and went "moose-hunting." We didn't want to leave! Highly recommended!

It was a great cabin in the woods. Comfortable and cozy. Nothing fancy but everything you need. Very close to Talkeetna but it felt miles and miles away- in a good way. It was so peaceful and quiet. Did not really communicate with the hosts simply because it was not needed. Only MINOR issue was that we ran out of firewood on the first night and could not find more. We would definitely stay here again if we return to this area.

Loved the location, nice and quiet. Had everything we needed for our stay. Even a martini shaker and glass! The loft bedroom would have been a great place to stay, but not for us. We’re in late 60’s early 70’s. The stairs too steep for us. Thanks for a great stay!

We enjoyed our stay here. Tim was super responsive and flexible with us. The only thing I would like others to know that the two top bunks are pretty close to the ceiling (as they often are) so two people need to be ok with that situation. No big deal, just something to be aware of. Great stay, great host and great house.

Nice place

Good location for activities in Talkeetna. There were 6 adults in our group - the upstairs loft requires one to climb a ladder to get to that bed - if anyone has issues with climbing a ladder - and managing taking luggage up that ladder - this may not be the place for you. This is a quaint and comfortable place. I would recommend a keypad for entry instead of a lockbox (could be easy to lose the key). Overall, it is the location to activities in Talkeetna that make this a good choice. Take bug spray - mosquitos are fierce. Host communicates very well!

Beautiful, Peaceful Stay

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us! It was peaceful, serene, and the perfect place to relax. We had a wonderful stay during our Denali trip—especially when the sun came out and the clouds cleared just in time for us to see the stunning Denali peak! The location was ideal, close to charming downtown Talkeetna where we enjoyed delicious spinach garlic bread, pizza, ice cream, and scenic views of the river. A truly memorable experience!

Quiet Retreat

This home, while located near other residences, is very quiet. You can hear the wildlife that is nearby and off in a distant location.2 bedrooms are located on the second floor. The 3rd bedroom is a loft with a ladder that you access from the 2nd floor. One bathroom is on the main floor while the other is on the second floor. There isn't a dishwasher but they do provide liquid dishwasher detergent for cleaning.Deck is not accessible during the Winter months due to snow.

Talkeetna Vacation

This was our first trip to Alaska. Admittedly, we were probably not prepared for the rustic home environment.That being said, if you are ready for a real, out-in-the-woodscabin type experience, this setting will be perfect.The location was easy to find with Google Maps and entry to the house was easy. It's a short drive to Talkeetna.There are 2 sets of bunks. One requires climbing a ladder into a loft area. Both top bunks are very close to the ceilingand requires some awareness to avoid hitting one's head when getting up during the night.Tim, the host, was quick to respond and offer assistance when contacted.

Lovely home on a gorgeous wooded setting.

The house was lovely and well-equipped. The outlook into trees was gorgeous. Communication was excellent. The ladder to the loft bedroom is worth mentioning. It worked, but was a surprise. We would stay here again.

Quiet Stay

Found this house on VRBO, and it was just as it was described.. Cute, peaceful, very clean close to a fishing lake, which we caught rainbow trout, and we were fortunate enough to have a meal for 6 Adults. It also was very close to town, which was very cute.. The only thing I suggest if there are older adults there is a ladder to climb for the upper loft.. So the younger of our couples climbed the ladder.. Kids would love it!! Other than that very nice stay.. Thank you, The Wisconsin Group 💚💛💚

We only stayed one night at this cabin, but we found it well stocked, comfortable, and quiet. We especially liked the rustic decor. The owner was very responsive and helpful to an unexpected situation we encountered. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.
