Spruce Moose

The underwear hanging on the back of the bathroom door was the first thing about the place I noticed, as I headed straight to the bathroom on arrival. That kind of freaked me out. Not many towels (,kitchen or bath) available. A lot of dog poopthe in the yard from a previous renter. We did clean it all up. The house was comfortable.

Alaska trip

The house was warm and comfortable. There were great views and we had wildlife right outside. Ducks and swans both with babies. Eagle, bunny, muskrat, fish, dragonflies, bats and a snow owl just to name a few. We enjoyed the hot tub and kayak! There were a few issues. There were not enough towels for our 10 day stay, no hand soap in the kitchen, no laundry detergent and we had to ask for more toilet paper. The toilet paper and towels were dropped off in a very timely manner after we requested them via email. Overall it was a great vacation!

Very cozy, clean, and welcoming! Amazing views! Great location. The hot tub did have a little difficulty keeping heat, but it was also subzero temps out. Other than that, it was a perfect stay! I would definitely stay again!

Alaska Lake House Getaway

Was a great stay! Only “concern” is there is a pump that is loud that runs every 10 minutes pumping water somewhere. We couldn’t figure out what was going on.

Beautiful location and cabin

This was a wonderful stay with my family. Excellent layout of a lake cabin, including the great room set up for entertaining.Kitchen was wonderful to cook in, I think the only essentials I couldn’t find was a cheese grater. The fenced backyard was really nice to have for the safety with little kids and dogs. Two queen beds and a hide a bed. This is such a gem of a place! FYI. I would let future guests know there’s two-steps to take down from the main entrance to the kitchen and living room. Making note of this is important, as we had my Uncle looking up to appreciate the beams and fell hard on an outstretched hand resulting in a fracture.

Upkeep

Overall a nice place to stay. Personal rep. eventually responded to text & email. (To their defense information on the backup generators and emergency services should probably be included in the listing)Questions I should’ve asked prior:Are all entrances coded to your individualized code?Is there anyone else onsite while you’re there? Where is the manager located?When was the last time the water was tested, treated and/or replaced? (Not just the floating ball)Is the fenced yard secure? Are there any places where my pup can get out of the back yard? Are there any hazards I should be aware of (sink holes from soft ground, garden fencing to get tangled in, charcoal from fire pit)? What kind of 1st aid kit is available? Is it adequate for being 10 miles from the volunteer FD & 38 miles from the hospital? If someone fell through the ice in the lake, is there a ladder or rope accessible?Is any of the furniture broken?What is the pump that is consistently running every 10 minutes for? And if you’re considering overlooking trip insurance read the fine print. There are things that could impact your stay/travel (earthquakes, volcanic eruptions & ash fall, sink holes, landslides).
