Such a beautiful place to stay. Great location to reach the nearby reindeer farm. Some breakfast food was provided and a washer and dryer were in the cabin. Highly recommended!

We actually stayed here in April 2023 and had such a great experience that when we had the opportunity to come to Alaska I knew that I wanted to book here again. The host is very responsive. The cabin is clean and very well appointed. Love the washer and dryer!!

Very clean and nice lodging. Owners were great at communicating. Perfect base camp for anyone wanting to explore the valley and glacier. Only criticism would be that the tv in bedroom was not functioning. Not a big deal, would definitely stay again.
