Jul 23, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing stay We had a great time and loved staying in the cabin. We would for sure come back! I would suggest getting a fan installed or something because the bed without the window it gets very hot up there at night. Also a price list of how much it is to rent gear. We misunderstood that renting gear would be $20/person per day we thought it was $20/day for us so that ended up costing much more than planned. Otherwise beautiful cabin great location. We would love to bring our families and parents back here for another adventure. ##### Ashley L. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Peter B. Aug 28, 2018 #### Nice tranquil cabin The cabin is about 30 minutes outside of Soldotna. Clean design, perfect for 3 people but doable with 4. Great amenities, shower, tv, refrigerator, freezer, grill. ##### Peter B. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2018
