Spruce House: 8 Bedroom Family Cabin
This historic, hand built log cabin is over sixty five years old, blending rustic charm with modern necessities like running water, heat, electricity, and septic. Ideal for large groups, it has eight bedrooms with seven queen beds and one twin, plus three full bathrooms. The full kitchen and multiple living areas make gatherings easy. Across two stories, three bedrooms and one bathroom are downstairs, with five bedrooms upstairs. Enjoy history, adventure, and 320 acres of Alaska farm land. Wrangell Mountain Homestead was first built in the 1970s by four generations using timber milled on site. After sitting empty for more than a decade, our family is restoring it one step at a time. Some areas look worn, rustic, or unfinished because this is a living project, not a polished resort. We did not buy this place to turn it into a luxury getaway. We bought it to save it, and when you stay here, you are part of that story. We are in a truly remote part of Alaska surrounded by forests, fields, and wide open skies. The nearest towns are a drive away: about 30 minutes to Chitina, an hour to Glennallen, 1 hour 45 minutes to Valdez, and 2.5 hours to Kennicott. Just up the road is a small diner and grocery store, and the rest is pure nature. Days can be spent hiking, exploring trails, watching wildlife, or simply soaking in the quiet beauty of the land. You may hear occasional farm or land work, but you will have full access to the cabin and grounds. Some areas are private or under repair, so please respect locked rooms and buildings. For a genuine Alaskan stay that is remote, unplugged, and rich with history, this cabin offers space, comfort, and an unforgettable connection to the land.
The vacation home is heated and features 3 bathrooms and space to spread out with 8 bedrooms.
