Cute Cabin
We stayed in the bear cabin and it was tiny but really cute. We were all able to sleep comfy with how many beds there were. There isn’t a sink in the cabin only the sink in the bathroom which is across from the cabin. Super quiet area though, would definitely come again. Thanks for having us.

Waterless cabin
The property was clean, well organized and pretty. We had moose at night. However, as millennia of our ancestors had discovered, running water and inside toilets are almost indispensable. We had heat, beds but lacked all but a microwave and coffee pot. It was hard to stumble outside, climb stairs without railings to pee at night.

Nice place with a very compact efficient layout.
No complaints, we are life long Alaskans and really enjoy the cabin life so this was comparatively luxurious to what our accommodations would regularly be. Six bunks in a 14x16 ish space but just right with the large common area and shower/bathroom facility.

Bear Cabin
Clean, quiet, and comfortable. I also liked that the hosts were responsive. My only suggestion is a black out curtain for the door window. Overall, great stay!
Thank you

Just what you need for your perfect Alaskan stop over
Just what you need for your perfect Alaskan stop over. It was tucked away in a private location, and exactly what you would think of as an Alaskan fishing cabin. They had everything we needed. Hot showers, clean, free laundry. We had two adults and four kids, and it was perfect. The host was great. We really enjoyed our time there, and I would definitely recommend this as a place to stop along your Alaskan adventure.
