Texas to Alaska!

Driving from Texas to Alaska, the Nancy Lake Villa was a great 5 day break. Clean and well equipped home on the lake. The owners were super friendly, and very helpful with recommendations of things to do in the area.

A slice of paradise!

I almost don't want to leave a review to keep this place a secret but its worth sharing. The location is quiet which is what we wanted but being on the lake there's lots to do.The owners were onsite and very respectful our of time but they are also very kind and sweet.The kitchen is well stocked that we were able to prepare family meals. We didn't have to worry about not having an essential cooking tool. Did i mention this was our second time staying, we knew we wanted to come back last visit and are already thinking about our next return trip.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a wonderful time at the villa! The cabin was well provisioned. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking meals as well as many staple foods that other vacationers have left (all products were still in date), as well as more than enough toilet paper and paper towels. The cabin has canoes, kayaks, paddle boats and boards to enjoy the beautiful Nancy Lake! Jim & Theresa were wonderful, friendly hosts and their dog Willow was a great ambassador to get our doggie fix in! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Thank you so much for the stay! It's impressive how you can drive 90 minutes away from home and be in a quiet lake house with a great view and all the amenities you could think of. We will definitely be back for future trips.

During the summer, on the lot next door, we are available as well to assist with anything you might need.

Nancy Lake, in Willow, Alaska, is in a prime Alaska vacation location not only because it's in the middle of many popular tourist attractions and activities, but also because it is on the most beautiful lake in the state!
