Everything about this stay was perfect. The house had everything we needed. The boats were fun to putz around the lake in. The owners set up croquet and badmitton for us and brought fresh eggs from their hens. It was a wonderful time and I highly recommend booking here.
Beautiful place. Houses were very accommodating. The house had everything we needed and a lot of room for all of us. Thank you for our wonderful day. Would stay here again.
It was a great place to stay with lots of activities for the family with badmitton, croquet, kayaks, paddle boat and games. Fishing was not great but we tried. Plenty of room and the hosts were very welcoming.
Jeanne & Jim couldn't have been more gracious! The house worked great for my family of 11 people. Beds were comfy, bathrooms were clean with more than enough towels for everyone. Only hoping we can return again someday. Thanks for an awesome stay!
We stayed here with my sister in law and her family and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and comfortable, with plenty of room for the whole family. We also got to enjoy taking the boat and paddle boats out on the lake and playing around on the property. The hosts were extremely nice and allowed us to gather fresh eggs from the chicken coop, fresh veggies from their large vegetable garden and even left us some yummy cookies and fresh Alaskan Salmon. I would definitely stay here again!
The amenities of this house made it stand out. My kids are still talking about all the things they were able to do playing outside - on the water and around the house. Jeanne and Jim were so welcoming and very hands on to our stay.
We all loved this property and its location. It was well stocked with appliances and it did NOT disappoint. The owners are delightful. ;) Our family truly enjoyed our time in Alaska and would gladly stay with you again! Thank you for sharing your home.

Thank you Diane for your review. Also thank you for sharing your itinerary while here in Alaska to help us help others pass it on to other guests,
Jeanne and Jim.
Absolutely stunning property, even better host!! You can see and feel the love these two put into this place. It was the perfect place for our family of 12. Logs of amenities, in 10 days we did not hear one kid sau they where bored. Also go proximity to logs of dinday adventures. We love to make it back someday! Great
Our family stayed in this wonderful lake house for a week. There was wonderful communication with the host the entire trip. They supplied a walker for me and even rearranged a main level bedroom to make sure I would fit.
The house was about a 15 minute drive from town and on a quiet lake. We absolutely loved the peaceful nature it brought. The supplied boat, kayaks, and canoe were great.
The only downside our family encountered was that we felt there was a little too much interaction with the owners during our stay, but upon talking to them about it a couple days in, it stopped immediately.
Absolutely AMAZING!! The property was perfection and even more than described! Hosts were spectacular so effective and quick with communication. Recommended to so many people for future stays. Loved every memory we created here.
Easy to find and owners are really nice! All you need to make your stay even greater is all provided to you. We brought along our boat and didnt even need it since they provided boats you can use! Little things like salt,paper, paper towel, pancake mix, fresh eggs in the morning and even vegetables from the garden that are there and available to use, I love it!!My kids enjoyed watching me get some fresh eggs in the chicken coop for breakfast every morning! We also brought our ATV's, althoug there are no trails near by you can still ride around. We celebrated my sons 5th bday here and let me tell you, everybody had a great time! Thanks Ms Jeanne for taking care of every little things down to what the boys may need, it sure was handy when I needed it! Cant wait to come here again with my family!!!! Love these place!!!!!
We were very impressed with our stay at the property. The homeowners were very friendly and prioritized customer satisfaction making sure we were happy. Had a hot tub, boat, canoes, kayaks, basketball hoop, horseshoes, badminton and croquet. Very nice property and area
Great Experience! I know we'll not hesitate to call on this host when we're in the area again. The host is committed to great service and ensuring that your stay is enjoyable with clean, roomy and spacious accommodations.
Very nice house with all possibly amenities needed for our vacation.
Enjoyed our stay
Owners did everything to make sure we had good experience, even allowed to use greenhouse for fresh produce and supplied eggs daily from chicken coop
Highly recommended
The owners were awesome from Day 1 of booking and helped us to navigate our journey during COVID. Once we arrived they were so friendly and respectful of our privacy. The chickens were so much fun to interact with. The lake view was beautiful. The fresh vegetables from the garden were delicious. Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the fire pit and the hot tub every evening!! Even in the rain!!!!! Well stocked kitchen.
First off, the hosts were incredibly nice and helped us out with all of our questions and planning our daily excursions to see Alaska. The property is beautiful and well stocked with anything you will need for your stay. The lake is beautiful and while the fishing was slow on the lake (very warm weather just prior to our stay) it was a great time getting out on the water and enjoying the beautiful landscape. The location is great and allowed us to go out daily and see many of the great sites in AK (Train, Denali, mines etc...). I would highly recommend this property and specifically the great hosts (Jeanne & Jim).
