The room did not have a sofa bed, as we had reserved. However, the staff hustled up a solution, which was fine for our one-night stay. A wonderful view from the balcony.

Small older lakefront property with excellent dining room and service. Dock allows for boat and float plane access. Water sport equipment available for rent. Excellent front desk staff. Clean comfortable room although no maid service during our stay, towels available upon request. About a 10-minute drive to Wasilla.

Sofa bed was broken. Staff arranged for us to have another room additional room so we could sleep 3. Bathroom could be updated. Caulking around edges of shower were missing. Food still in refrigerator. It would be nice to have extra coffee supplies and towels for both rooms since we were there for multiple nights.

The staff was very nice, when we arrived our room had a missing remote so the TV did not work. The young lady who came to the room to check it out did not have a solution. The next day the person took a remote from the restaurant who had 5 of them and had us use it. Wonderful thinking outside of the box. The room and furniture were fantastic but the mattress was very soft so I did not do so good but my husband slept fine.
