Lakeside Retreat with fantastic views

Lakeside Retreat with fantastic views

10/10 Excellent
"Wow! That was our first impression of this place, and it was also our lasting one.You truly get the best of both worlds here. If you want to escape, you have the peace and solitude of the lake, spectacular views of the mountains and glaciers, bald eagles roosting in the trees right outside the living room, and fantastic fishing. Yet you’re still close enough to town to enjoy restaurants, shopping, and that wonderful sense of the local Alaskan community.Everything you need to enjoy the lake is right there—fishing rods, life jackets, canoes, pedal boats, and a rowing boat. There is also one very large trout that managed to outsmart me for the entire stay!Staying here feels less like renting an accommodation and more like being welcomed into a small, family-run Alaskan resort. Stan and Brenda are absolutely fabulous hosts and make the experience even more special.During our stay, we took an overnight trip to Denali to experience the magic of the national park, but you certainly don't have to travel far to find incredible scenery and outdoor adventures. Hatcher Pass, the Gold Mine Trail, glaciers, beautiful walks, wildlife, and some of Alaska's most spectacular landscapes are all within easy reach.If you are looking for somewhere special to stay in Alaska, don't waste your time looking anywhere else. Stay here.We absolutely loved it and would return in a heartbeat."

"View of the lake from the living room and porch are stunning. Our stay was very quiet all of the four days we stayed. Location is close to amenities while maintaining a feel of being remote. Host Haley was easy to communicate with. Everything worked as expected, i.e., hot water, microwave, fridge, coffee, TV, etc. Bed was comfortable. Next year, we will take advantage of the available paddle boat."

"What was good about the property was the price for the night. There are no ice vending machines or refrigerator. Ice can be gotten in the lounge but there is no way to keep things refrigerated unless you bring a cooler. Room is clean.Bathroom has no venting for after showering. There is a heater with a fan in the bathroom that helps. For the price it is very reasonable lodging. Staff were very helpful in accomadating our needs."
