About this property

Alaskan Lakefront Cabin! Hot tub, woodstove, kayaks, paddle boards. Sleeps 6.

Unwind at a private waterfront cabin on Blodgett Lake in Meadow Lakes, about an hour from Anchorage.

Comfortably sleeping up to 6 in two bedrooms, this single-level retreat pairs lake and mountain views with lake access, kayaks and paddleboards, a private year-round hot tub, wood-burning fireplace, fast WiFi, and self check-in.

Settle into a cozy single-level lakeside cabin for a romantic escape, family trip, or relaxed group getaway. Large windows frame bright lake views, and the spacious deck features built-in seating, outdoor dining, sun lounger, a BBQ grill, and a private year-round hot tub—an inviting place to unwind beneath the stars.

Sleeping arrangements:
• Smaller bedroom: 1 king bed
• Larger bedroom: 2 queen beds

Inside, enjoy a well-equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, drip coffee maker, blender, toaster, hot-water kettle, and dining table.

The cabin also includes a 50-inch Roku TV, books, board games, fast 50 Mbps WiFi, central heating, ceiling and portable fans, and a wood-burning fireplace for supplemental coziness. A free washer and dryer are in the cabin.

In summer, enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, wading, or fishing on the lake. Life jackets in a range of sizes are available and encouraged. Blodgett Lake is home to rainbow trout and pike, and salmon spawn along the shoreline in fall.

The entire cabin is yours to enjoy, including the private entrance, deck, private backyard, lake access, and private hot tub. Self check-in is available via smart lock.

During summer months, you may also access the boat shed, where kayaks, paddleboards, coolers, limited fishing gear, and extra propane are stored. The garage is not available for guest use, and one locked interior closet is reserved for cleaning supplies.

Free parking is available on the premises, with free street parking also available.

A starter kit of essential toiletries is provided. The Roku TV connects to WiFi, so you may sign in with your own streaming-service accounts; cable is not provided.

You are welcome to bring your own watercraft; the lake allows motors up to 10HP. Limited fishing gear in the boat shed—including a small tackle box and one or two fishing poles—is not regularly maintained. Please replenish used supplies or replace anything broken.

Exterior security cameras are on the property. A propane grill is available for guest use; please clean up after using it and never leave it unsupervised.

Annual Alaska Vaca

We usually come up in June to help our sister with the Highland Games in Palmer, last year was our last to volunteer. Your home was lovely we so enjoyed watching the birds & enjoying the deck. My grandsons & famlies live in Chickaloon and Wasilla so they came over to visit us one evening.

Hidden Retreat

What a gem! The house is located on a quiet lake on the outskirts of Wasilla near Big Lake. We enjoyed waking up in the morning and enjoying a cup of coffee looking over the serene lake. We look forward to staying here in the future.

Beautiful Lake Home

Our family enjoyed this place over all the places we stayed throughout Alaska. It was fully equipped with everything we needed (except fishing gear) bring your own. The guys caught fish, we enjoyed the outside on the great deck, hot tub and eating outside overlooking the lake. Very relaxing and just what we needed. Sorry our stay there wasn't longer. Would def go back again.

Alaska July 2023

Our stay at the cabin was great. It had everything we needed. We relaxed in the hot tub after using the paddle boards. The patio area overlooking the lake is so relaxing and a perfect way to wind down after a long day. We had a question for Shanna, the host, and got an answer right away. Overall great experience!

The cabin was clean and comfortable. Our complaint is the large deck area was absolutely covered with debris and pollen from surrounding trees. The hot tub was also very dirty filled with debris.
