Beautiful home/cabin north of Wasilla.

Accommodations were all top of the line, from the appliances to the comfy beds to the thick carpeting, everything looked brand new. Great family set-up. Beautiful backyard with fire pit, gas grill and gazebo with table, chairs and picnic table. Gentle running creek is a nice accent. Fast responses from the host, Carrie, she made sure we had everything we needed. We used Fort Alaska as our home base from which to go on our daily adventures. Hatcher Pass and Eklutna Lake were two of our favorite places. Floaters Restaurant, nearby has great food!

Thank you for the kind words Sherrye. I have not tried Floaters as of yet as they have upgraded their place in the last year or so. I will have to add them to our list!

Can't say enough great things about this fabulous property. We are a family of three but it can easily accommodate a larger party and not feel crowded. Quiet, cozy and super clean with everything you could possibly need, I really appreciated the well stocked kitchen and extra towels and wash clothes. Washer and dryer definitely came in handy after our more adventurous activities. Beds were comfortable and property offers fun activities itself, we enjoyed the kayaks, trails, fishing poles and fire pit. The view of the creek from the deck is peaceful and relaxing, especially at the end of the day with a nice glass of wine. Great location for both local amenities (groceries and such) as well as day excursions, we enjoyed trips to Matanuska Glacier, hiking at Eklutna Lake, bear viewing tour from Anchorage, a day in Whittier and quick trip to Talkeetna. Local restaurants are worth a try, we recommend the Susitna Brewing Company, excellent selection of food and beer with a lake view. Great communication with the owners (which I find rare these days) who answered all of our questions and even provided coffee, muffins and scones which tasted great and were much appreciated. You know you have found the perfect rental property when you refer to it as "home" by day two. Stop looking and book this property now, you will not regret it!
