Cozy Alaskan charm · Large private forested yard · Walk to Main Street
Welcome to The Airstrip – South Taxiway, a private and thoughtfully designed Alaskan retreat just one lot off Talkeetna’s iconic grass runway. Here, bush planes and Super Cubs become part of the scenery — taking off and landing just steps away — while you enjoy the comfort and privacy of your own forest-surrounded cabin.
Step inside and you’ll find warm wood finishes, inviting textures, and a layout designed for comfort after a day of adventure. Whether you're visiting for flight seeing, fishing, hiking, skiing, or simply to unplug, the cabin offers a relaxing place to unwind. Large windows let in natural light and give you glimpses of airstrip life, blending the spirit of aviation with the calm of the woods.
Modern Comfort Meets Rustic Charm
The South Taxiway is fully equipped with modern amenities to make your stay easy and comfortable:
Fully stocked kitchen
Comfortable sleeping arrangements
Quality linens and thoughtful touches throughout
Clean, well-appointed bathroom
You’ll have everything you need — without sacrificing the authentic Talkeetna feel.
What truly sets this home apart is the large, secluded backyard surrounded by mature forest and access to nearby trail systems. It’s quiet, spacious, and feels worlds away from everything. Enjoy morning coffee with birdsong, evening firelight under the Alaska sky, or even a chance to catch the northern lights dancing overhead.
Despite the tucked-away feel, you’re just a short, easy walk to Talkeetna’s Main Street — home to local restaurants, breweries, shops, river views, and flight seeing tours. Leave the car parked and explore town on foot.
Whether you’re an aviation enthusiast, outdoor adventurer, or someone simply looking for a peaceful Alaskan escape, The South Taxiway offers a front-row seat to Talkeetna life — without giving up comfort or quiet.
Come stay where the runway meets the woods.
