The Shoreline Cabin - An Authentic Alaskan Retreat
The Shoreline Cabin is an Authentic, Alaskan A-Frame, Loft Cabin on peaceful Island Lake with all the modern comforts. Tucked away on a private road on Island Lake this sweet cabin has lake front access for morning coffee on the deck, swims in the lake and paddle boarding.
This charming cabin offers a blend of modern comforts and rustic charm, providing the perfect retreat for your Alaskan getaway..
We are thrilled to present the newly remodeled cabin. The cabin was built in 1952 and is 73 years old. We recently completed an impressive interior remodel that has taken this cozy retreat to new heights. From top to bottom, every detail has been carefully curated to create a space that exudes comfort, style, and tranquility. The remodel of this cabin was nothing short of an extraordinary feat during Covid times and living on an island.
From the moment you step inside, you'll be greeted by a brand new kitchen, bathroom, and living areas that exude style and sophistication. We can't wait for you to see and enjoy the stunning transformation at our Alaskan getaway.
👩🏻🍳 Whether you're a seasoned chef or simply enjoy cooking, our kitchen is designed to inspire and accommodate your culinary endeavors. The new kitchen features butcher block countertops & tile backsplash, state-of-the-art appliances, and plenty of cabinet space with all the tools for your culinary passions. You'll have everything you need to prepare delicious meals.
🛁 The bathroom is where the remodel really shines. Indulge in the ultimate spa-like experience. The focal point is the wet room and the exquisite tiles that envelop the wet room, creating a serene and luxurious ambiance. In addition to a rain shower in the wet room theres a soaking tub and heated floors. Imagine relaxing in the tub, surrounded by warm steam and soothing aromas, after a long hike or fun filled day on the beach!
📺 Step into the stylish and inviting living areas. The space boasts brand new flooring and carefully selected mid-century furniture, creating a modern and cozy atmosphere.
꩜ Ascend the spiral staircase to the loft, where a comfortable queen bed, a cozy sitting area, and plush carpeting await you. The loft is the perfect retreat for a peaceful night's sleep or a moment of relaxation with a book in hand.
But that's not all. We have gone above and beyond to enhance your experience at the cabin. Every window and door has been replaced with larger, modern ones, allowing an abundance of natural light 🔆 to flood the space and providing breathtaking views of the surrounding natural beauty. Whether you're gazing at the serene lake or marveling at the majestic trees, you'll feel a deep connection to nature from the comfort of your cabin.▲
Nestled in the heart of nature, our cabin on the lake offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The outside deck is "decked" out with stylish Acapulco chairs, a grill and a propane fire pit & grill. This is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the serenity of the great outdoors. With the gentle crackle of the fire and the warm glow of the flames, you'll feel your stress melt away as you soak up the peaceful ambiance. Have an evening BBQ, sip your wine, drink your morning coffee, or simply enjoy the soothing sounds of nature as you bask in the warmth of our cozy fire pit while enjoying the lake view.
Overall, this charming cabin is a luxurious and comfortable retreat that you'll never want to leave. Whether you're lounging in the living area, soaking in the tub, paddle boarding on the lake or enjoying the view from the deck, you'll feel pampered and relaxed in this stunning Alaskan getaway.

Stay was great!
Property was very clean, absolutely adorable, and well stocked with everything you would need in the kitchen. Checking in was a breeze and the stay was great! Neighbors let their dogs run free all over the place, we don’t mind because we love dogs but big dogs coming up to you as you get out of your car might deter others who don’t like dogs.

Bad smell, Awful hostess
Aside from the handful of small irritants (poor check in procedures, a loose barking dog from the house less than 20 ft from this cabin and no window coverings other than partial fogging on the bathroom) this place is not

Fun place!
Rental was very fun with lots of amenities! Thank you for the bubble bath, laundry facilities, lake view and smart tv!
-just a note, if you are not agile or tall, the sleeping arrangements can be challenging. Crawling is needed to get into bed.
-also, there are house right next door, however everyone was very quiet.

Awesome modern gem in Anchorage
My son and I stayed in this cottage while in Kodiak and it was truly amazing. You would not know it from the outside. Don’t let the rustic exterior fool you. Step in and you are transported to a super modern interior. Decor was well thought out. All amenities one could need. Beautiful view of lake and in a quiet area with nice neighbors but only a short drive to town. Jessica was super responsive and helpful. I highly recommend especially since there aren’t a lot of options on Kodiak. This cottage beats expectations.

Great cozy cabin!
The cabin was a great place to come back and relax after a long day of adventuring on the island. Very clean and the check-in and check-out process was super easy. Jessica was excellent with communication. 5 stars all around. Two things for awarness: we thought we were parked far enough over for the neighbors vehicle, but they knocked within 30 minutes asking us to move over (they were very kind when asking); For the loft, the low cielings are not bad , but there is a very tight squeeze getting up there due to the angle of the stair case and the A-frame nature of the cabin.
