We were greeted with a freshly baked loaf of bread and fresh cinnamon buns. Delicious. The lodge was just as pictured. The beds were comfortable. There was lots of room for our group of 7. Great hang out relaxing space as well. The host checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. The kitchen was stocked above and beyond our expectations. We would definitely rent again.

A fantastic property with every detail covered!

Every part of this stay was a solid 5-stars. The property is amazing, the location was perfect for snowmachines, and lodge amenities were way above average. The hosts were fantastic…always quick to respond/help and willing to accommodate. We’ll definitely go here again.

No Power, No Problem!

We’re return guests to this property for good reason: it’s beautiful, quiet, well-equipped, and has fantastic hosts. It even has an automatic standby generator, so when the power went out during the snowstorm it wasn’t an issue. Don’t hesitate to book this gem!

Beautiful and Peaceful

Absolutely stunning property that feels like home! As soon as you pull in, you’re in your own private world. Owners have thought of everything to help make your stay comfortable. Wonderful kitchen which is supplied with all that you need - just bring the food. We drove 2.5 hours north for a Sherp Fat Truck tour which was amazing. Close to Talkeetna for a recommended day trip.
Sherp Fat Truck Tours. Highly recommend.
