About this property

*Please note: While we do accept pets we ask that you have no more than 1 large dog or two small dogs without pre-approval. There is a $50 pet fee that will be added after you confirm your reservation.
Take a step back in time when you enter our little log cabin by the river. Built in 1949, this cabin is a replica of the log cabins built by the gold seekers of Alaska. Though modern in most aspects we have retained the native charm of unfinished wood, rough, hand-hewn logs and naked beams. The inspiration for the cabin was found by my great grandfather who spent time in Alaska working on the Alcan highway. You will find evidence of its Canadian heritage throughout the cabin.
The cabin sits up on a gently sloping cliff and offers excellent views of the river. Enjoy a glass of wine on the dock and relax as you watch the sun set.
We love hosting and enjoy sharing the peace and serenity of this beautiful place. If you need anything at all, don’t hesitate to reach out!

Good experience

The property was clean, and the bathroom had been remodeled and the mattresses changed since our last stay. Also, I'm pretty sure we left 2 Iowa Chops in the freezer. I think they fell behind the ice bin. Feel free to eat them. We just purchased them on Friday.

Peace at the Cabin

Heidi is a wonderful host. The cabin is as she said on line. Peaceful by the river. Very clean. We saw 7 deer one night right outside our window. We would definitely go again.
