About this property

Discounts on select Haines tours exclusively for our guests!

Have you been dreaming of that perfect Alaskan experience? Look no further--this is the answer. The Gathering Place, situated on 160 acres looking out over Lutak Inlet, has one of the most spectacular views in all of Alaska. Watch for humpback whales, sea lions, seals, porpoise, killer whales, eagles, and more right from your front porch as you enjoy your morning coffee or evening nightcap. Truly a piece of heaven most vacationers never get to experience. We are just 3 miles from the Alaska Marine Highway terminal, 7 miles from downtown Haines, and only a mile from the famous Chilkoot River, one of the most popular sites for fishing, bear viewing, and watching eagles.

In the evening head to town for a wonderful dinner at one of our great local restaurants or prepare your own meal in your cabin or on the fire pit just outside your door.

Cabins #1 and #2 are fully furnished, each with a private bath, one bedroom with a queen bed, a sleeping loft accessed by a ladder with a full bed and twin bed, living room with pull-out couch, and a kitchenette, plus a private deck overlooking the water. TV with DVD's, limited wi-fi and cell service.

Haines

My family and I stayed in the lovely cabin number 2. It was a true Alaskan experience for us. The cabin has an open floor plan with kitchen and living room, a queen bedded room on the first floor. Shower toilet and sink, with thirty towels. It also has a loft with a double bed and twin, it is spacious. The Chilkoot Lake State Recreation is short drive up the street. Haines is only seven miles from the cabin. In Haines there is an IGA that has everything. If you're looking to view the night sky with out light pollution the cabin is the place to be. From the dining room table and the deck you have a beautiful view of the lake. We saw bald eagles and a seal. I would not hesitate to recommend these cabins.
