Upper Paradise Log Cabin - Nightly Rental in the Woods
Built by a renowned log cabin expert in 1982, the Paradise Cabin has been recently updated, is surrounded by the Chugach National Forest and directly next to the famous Moose Pass 'swimming hole'. This cabin is private, clean, cozy and perfect for a couple or small family looking to experience the many activities of the Kenai Peninsula. Perfectly located close to the beautiful seaside city of Seward, world-class king salmon fishing in Cooper Landing, and the charming town of Moose Pass.
If you are looking for a unique and rustic cabin to relax and recharge in a beautiful mountain setting, you've found it! Private, yet convenient to all the Kenai Peninsula has to offer. Come and experience the charm of a 'real' pioneer log cabin. This cabin is immediately adjacent to the Moose Pass swimming hole and often in the summer you will hear the joyful noises of kids jumping off the diving platform.
This beautiful log cabin tucked away in a wooded setting will charm you the moment you pull in the driveway. The property is calm and quiet, however, please note that the cabin is fairly close to the Seward Highway and during high traffic times (mid-morning and mid-afternoon), you will hear traffic-related noise from the highway. We assure you that in the mornings and evenings, the noise quiets down.
We constructed a brand new cabin in the winter of 2019 called the Lower Paradise Log Cabin. It is available to rent as well and would be the perfect compliment to a large group traveling together. The two cabins now share a driveway but have their own parking and are completely separate.
This cabin is private, clean, cozy and perfect for a couple or small family looking to experience the many activities of the Kenai Peninsula. The cabin was built in 1982 and as such, there are quirks that come with its age.
This log cabin has everything you need, beautifully built, cozy stove that provides perfect warmth. The cabin itself is spacious, clean, nicely decorated and really well-kept. And the bed is top quality. Out the front door, there's a deck with a lounge chair.
There is a queen bed in the loft and a double, pull-out bed in the brand new couch. The living room is open to the kitchen and has a dining set for four + people. The cabin has quality furnishings throughout with hand chosen furniture, bedding, appliances and décor. We perform a quality check on the cabin prior to your arrival, which will ensure you of a wonderful experience.
The only way to get around in Moose Pass is to have your own car. There is no public transportation or taxi cabs. There are transportation services to and from the larger communities of Cooper Landing and Seward.

Large comfortable living area and spacious, fully equipped kitchen. Beautiful views of the mountains from inside the cabin and from the expansive deck. We really enjoyed our stay!
This cabin is perfectly situated for spending time on the Kenai Peninsula or taking a cozy escape. It is clean and roomy for two. We appreciated the full kitchen.
The cabin is magnificent! Clean, everything was provided that you might need, great location and so peaceful. We enjoyed our stay immensely! We will be back!

This is our second stay here. It is a perfect spot between Anchorage and Homer. Close enough to Seward and Cooper Landing to take advantage of fishing and hiking. Love it!!
We enjoyed this stay very much. The attention and details to have all necessary amenities was great! We were able to cook and enjoy the kitchen as well as kick back and relax after a long day outside fishing and hiking. The black out shades were much appreciated
We stayed here for a couple nights. It was clean, the owner, Willow, was responsive. There was lots of attention to detail in the cabin. Loved the picnic table on the front porch and the grill.
It was quiet and in a beautiful location. Could be a bit tricky to find the driveway but Willow did her best to make sure we found it okay.
If we ever come back to the area we would absolutely stay here again.
Beautiful scenery all around this nice cabin. Willow and team had everything we needed. If checking in late make sure you hit grocery store before hand, as the local convenience store. Eyes closed by 6. We used the cabin as a base for our day trips to Seward, Homer and Hope before heading back to Anchorage.
A little peace of Heaven! The snow covered mountains
We loved this place,the views was awesome .The owner was great to deal with,the only regret was wished we booked it our whole stay ,other places we stayed didnt compare to this one.Our first time to come to Alaska ,when we come back this will be our go-to place

Very nice place in the mountains! Willow was very responsive!
Love this place!
It is a charming and cozy cabin, but it is very close to the highway, so you will hear the cars coming down the road.
The stairway upstairs is narrow and might only be for some, but there is a sofa sleeper downstairs if you can't do the steps.
Very cute cabin with wonderful deck to bbq and hang out on. Situated right next to the highway so road noise can be loud at times, which didn’t bother me but did wake my husband up a few times during our stay. Kitchen is nicely stocked for cooking meals. Washer and dryer made it great to get laundry done between adventures. Location was great for trips to Seward and Cooper Landing. There is a lake right next door that is pretty. Owner is quick to respond and communication was good. View from deck was nice, can sit and watch the mountain goats with binoculars.
