The cabin was very clean, and had plenty of seats to sit down and relax despite its small size. They made great use of the space and we never felt cramped. My toddler loved the loft bedroom and looking down to the living area from the top of the stairs.

Great cabin

We needed a weekend away, so we stayed at the cabin. It was nestled away from the highway so it was quiet. I especially appreciated that the rental was pet free. The cabin was clean and cozy, just what we needed so we could relax.

Clean, Friendly, Relaxing

Lynne's cabin was a great stop on our way through the Kenai Peninsula. The cabin is easy to find, clean and cozy. Lynne was very helpful and even left us welcome cakes! I'd happily stay again, and we actually wished we had an extra night at the cabin on our trip.

A Cabin Getaway

This was a great little get away spot. We spent 5 days there and unfortunately spent more time inside than we had hoped due to rain preventing us from getting out and skiing. The cabin, albeit small, was comfortable and well-equipped. Lynne was responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Spring break

Wonderful stay! Can't say enough good about the property and the hosts! Lynne and Patrick were friendly and wonderful to deal with. They even found some sleds for us to use! Placer cabin is wonderful and the kitchen and all amenities worked well and as designed. We had three boys ages 7, 11,13 and we all had a great time. Highly recommend.

Fall tour of AK

We booked the cabin as a stopover on our drive from Denali to Seward. The cabin is set in a peaceful location and had all the needs of home. The host greeted us after check in and gave us a great dinner recommendation which both of us ended up at and it was delicious - Spoonline Bistro. Our second night we cooked in and found everything we needed for a home cooked meal after a brief stop to the local grocery store. The cabin is located in a beautiful mountain range if you are a skier and a short distance to Portage Glacier and Whittier.

Corleys from Georgia

The log cabin was so nice and quiet. Very clean and perfect for us as we were enjoying celebrating our 55th wedding anniversary. We would definitely choose to stay there again. So much better than a hotel or condo. We were so happy to find this. The owners were very nice and friendly. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Very cute and great location

This little cabin was awesome. It had everything we needed if we wish to cook and is very clean with great beds and soft towels. The location for us was amazing and near several good restaurants. The owners who live next door made themselves available if needed. We all highly recommend this cabin. Please know that it is about 45 minutes from Anchorage next to a ski resort in a very quiet small community.

Wonderful accommodations!

Cabin was absolutely adorable, clean and stocked with more items than we expected. We usually stay at a nearby hotel and are so happy we branched out and chose this cabin. The host was very quick to respond to a couple questions we had was very friendly. We’ll definitely stay here again for all future Girdwood trips.
