Great location for catching the start of the iditarod and taking part in a few fun local activities. Comfy, cozy, and clean house where we caught a phenomenal sunset against a beautiful alaskan landscape while soaking in the hot tub. Would definitely return.
It was a great location for what we wanted to do in the area. Wished all the jets in the hot tub would have worked, it was the same issue as last year when we stayed.

That's so weird. It's a brand new hot tub that was installed just last summer. Sometimes people twist them to turn them off which hopefully is the case and not from being broken. Other than that, I do hope your stay was nice and everything else was satisfying. Feed back is always welcome since I can't get to the house other than a couple times a year.
This was a great place to stay during our vacation. Was a bit of a drive but this property was a great home base for the day we spent going up to Denali Park. The house was very clean, comfortable, organized and labeled! We loved having the hot tub to relax in each night. The Hatcher pass area was a nice bonus to go explore.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us. It is out of the way, but we think that's what makes it so peaceful! If you ever choose to return let me know. We give discounts to our return guests.
Amazing property surrounded by nature. Very private and quiet. Close to Hatcher Pass so you can recreate like the locals but still have easy access to the highway. Very clean with comfortable couches and beds. Well maintained. Closest grocery stores are in Wasilla so make sure you stop on the way in if coming from the south.
Amazing stay! I mentioned that it was my daughter’s 10th birthday, and Amber went above and beyond to decorate the entire place!!!! it was so special and such a surprise! The house is beautiful and well equipped. We look forward to staying there again. Great location.
Highly recommend this home! It was well stocked with everything we needed and the host was amazing. They went above any other home we have rented. 5 stars!

This is my second time booking this place. It's perfect for a girls weekend. Clean and comfortable. The property manager is responsive to text messages and all check-in and out instructions are very clear.
This is our second time staying here. We absolutely LOVE this home! Rebekah is amazing and Amber (property manager) is top notch. They go above and beyond to be accommodating! Our kids love this house. Location is awesome if you are looking for an outdoorsy get away. Home is clean and well stocked. We look forward to our next trip here! We love everything about this home!!! Thanks Amber and Rebekah!!!

Thank you for choosing us again. We love having your family stay at our house! We hope you have you stay again in the future!
We weren’t in the mood to host Thanksgiving this year and with our busy schedules, decided it might be fun to change things up and run away.
Since it was a big meal to prepare for, I forgot a few things like kitchen gadgets/appliances that they happened to have there. It was all in the details and they were prepared.
It was very clean and homey. And added bonus was a relaxing snowy night in the hot tub. We will be back!
I'm so happy I found this property. My friends and I had a great time. Very easy drive from Anchorage. Checking in was smooth and so was checking out. Everything was clean and the place was very cute. The thing we loved the most besides the hottub (which was so wonderful) was how everything was labeled. Light switches, closets and cupboards in the kitchen. We could find everything we needed with ease. Locals should definitely consider booking a stay at this property.
Property was clean and cute, was everything we needed and wanted. The hot tub was perfect to relax and enjoy after along day, was perfectly placed to enjoy the beautiful views of Hatcher's Pass. We got to experience the first snow of the season and was nice to watch the snow from the hot tub. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a home base for snow machine adventures on the public land the property borders or anyone looking to enjoy the true beauty of Alaska away from all the tourist hustle and bustle.
We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the peacefulness. The hot tub was so relaxing as we watched the beautiful sunset. Everything in the house was well labeled and clean. Thanks for a wonderful time!
