AWESOME FAMILY VACATION - June 2025

Our family of 5 was very comfortable. House did not disappoint. Property manager very responsive. Unbelievable views. Abundant wildlife Very private and serene. Great location for adventures to Denali; Palmer; Wasilla; Whittier and Seward. Highly recommend Eagle River Nature Center just a few miles down the road.

Perfect cabin for a relaxing summer retreat

Booked this cabin for a girl's trip with 3 adults and 1 child. Everything was great! I want to stress the importance of bear safety becuase we had a black bear pay us a visit during our stay. They have a binder with safety information in the cabin. Another thing to note is that the bunk bed top bunk has a very low clearance. Was okay for my 7 year old but I couldn't imagine a teen or adult being able to sleep comfortably up there. We did not need heat while there. There is one large ceiling fan for the living room, kitchen, dining, and loft, but no fans in the bedrooms. Most windows are able to be opened which was really nice to help control the temperature. I can't think of anything else this cabin could need - there's a very well-stocked spice cabinet! We had a great time exploring Alaska, and this cabin was the perfect landing pad for spending time together and resting between adventures. Our visit was during 4th of July weekend, we were able to see and hear a few fireworks going off toward the main road but nothing super close to the property. There's a Walmart and plenty of dining options nearby in Eagle River, and Anchorage is only about 45 min away and there's lots of options there too! We also went to the Girdwood Forest Fair, which was about an hour and a half drive away. Really couldn't ask for a better location, we made memories here that will last a lifetime. The cabin is very homey and cozy and really was such a special part of our trip!

Quiet beauty

Our family stayed here three nights and we loved the cabin. It was clean, spacious, and so quiet. We saw a grizzly bear one evening just up the road and a moose near the river one morning. We would definitely recommend this cabin while in Anchorage!
Incredible view

Loved this Log Cabin!

We loved just about everything about this picturesque home. Well equipt kitchen with spices, a wok and rice cooker/insta pot! So close to great hikes at the Nature Center. Not too far from town; loved the quiet and beautiful views. The host had several brochures and magazines to help us plan our days. The carpet definitely needs replacing, but I understand why they wouldn't since they allow pets. We'll be back! has

Picturesque

Beautiful place to stay while visiting Anchorage! My two college kids and I stayed for the week of Thanksgiving. I baked a turkey! Instacart delivers too! Great internet and everything was very comfy and cozy. Owner was very sweet and called to check on us after a freezing weather front came through. My kids and I didn’t want to leave and look forward to visiting again

An Eagle River dream!

House is super! Beds are very comfortable! Kitchen is nicely stocked with cooking equipment and daily needed items. Views are amazing and it’s very peaceful at the house. We stayed for 11 days… 2 of the days we never even left because it was that comfortable and peaceful. Our Vacasa contact person was attentive and easy to communicate with! Highly recommend this vacation rental!
