There is a water wheel and fish pond , a huge patio deck off the lodge, and custom fire pit with hand crafted wood swings. The owner has many Alaskan stories about this property and the wildlife. There are very few places left like this that are authentic yet have modern amenities. This is a great place to relax, fish, hike, enjoy life. The Harry Potter Cabin. It is custom built. It has water & electricity both, and is connected to septic. It is 720 square feet with two floors. There is one bathroom which has a new & large jacuzzi bathtub and a hand shower as well, along with a raised bowl sink. For heat, there’s an electric fireplace heater downstairs and an electric heater upstairs. Upstairs there are 2 queen size beds . Located upstairs there is a door that leads you to an outside upper deck above the year round creek and is perfect for salmon viewing when they’re running. And you’re high up enough to view the bears that feed on them, safely. The outside of the cabin has 4 walls that are each done differently pattern wise. All are made from Spruce and consist of both “First cuts” and as well, “second cuts” also known as Live Edge. There is a covered front deck at the entrance and the steel roof put on is excellent for listening to the rain fall. Inside, both floors are made from Spruce and coated with polyurethane. All the railing upstairs is from driftwood found on the Kenai lake and coated with stain. The kitchen cabinets and kitchen sink top are made from Spruce. The cabinets are layered with “First cuts of Birch”. Kitchen sink (as well as bathroom sink) are sealed in 2 coats of epoxy. The kitchen bar was sanded, stained and also covered with 2 coats of epoxy. There are multiple Throw Rugs throughout both floors of the cabin. There is a generously sized closet with a lot of shelves downstairs. There are 2 extremely comfortable recliners downstairs and a flat screen TV to watch. There is an electric stove/oven and a full sized refrigerator in the kitchen. Under the staircase (as in the Harry Potter movie) there is adequate storage area (when the kids aren’t in it). The ceiling is done in tongue & grove and all the walls are spruce cut locally.
The cabin is heated and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Stretch out in the jetted tub. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Beautiful Handmade Cabin
This cabin seriously blew me away with the uniqueness that it was built with. The host gave us a tour of all of his custom built cabins that he has on the property and was thoughtful enough to gift us a bottle of champagne for my girlfriend’s birthday. We had an amazing stay and will definitely be back again!
