The cabin was very clean and comfortable. Haley is very nice and a great host. She answered my questions very quickly. The lake is just in front of the cabin with a beautiful view. It's located very close to Palmer and Wasilla. A wonderful place to stay. I'll be staying there the next time too.

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.

Amazing!!! The view from the cabin is awesome!! We could have spent our whole vacation on the patio! Haley, the owner, went so far beyond our expectations!! She is one of the kindest people we have ever met! She responded to every question that I had and gave me numerous suggestions about places to go, where to eat, and where to shop! You will not find a better place to stay!!

We absolutely loved our stay at the cabin! Haley was so easy to communicate with for directions to the property, check-in, and suggestions for fun things to do in the area. The cabin was ready when we arrived, and stocked with coffee, creamer, and other kitchen and bath essentials. We spent our time in the area taking tours to Katmai and to Hatcher's Pass. With being so busy, we extra appreciated the incredibly comfortable bed! I wish we had more time to spend out on the lake behind the cabin but that will have to wait for a return trip. We will definitely be staying here again!
