About this property

Amazing cabin close to lifts, brewery, dining, hiking and biking.

You will love this quiet cabin surrounded by mature hemlock and spruce trees. It’s a great base to explore all that this part of Alaska has to offer. Only 1/2 mile to Alyeska ski resort. Tons of hiking and biking nearby. A short drive will take you to Anchorage, Turnagain Arm, Whittier, or Portage Glacier. Seward is close enough for a day trip for a fishing charter, a wildlife cruise, or a hike at Exit Glacier. After each day’s adventures, come home to this warm and inviting space. Hop into the steam shower to help you unwind, or pour a glass of wine to enjoy in the sunroom. On warmer days, open all the windows and from any room you can enjoy the pleasant babbling from the small creek that runs through the property. Our young boys have spent hours playing in the creek during the summer months – your kids or grandkids will too. On colder days, the furnace will keep the cabin warm, but nothing compares to the all embracing warmth of a wood stove.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Wightman

Host profile image
We have lived in Anchorage for almost a decade and quickly fell in love with visiting Girdwood for the skiing (alpine and Nordic) and sledding in winter, hiking and mountain biking in the summer. We feel fortunate to have this amazing cabin within walking distance of the lifts at Alyeska. We stay here often, and are happy to share the space with others when we are not here.

Why they chose this property

We loved this cabin from the first time we saw it. We loved the feel of the great room, with large windows looking out on mature trees. The small stream that runs along the front of the cabin, under the driveway then down the property is a great addition. On warm summer days, open the windows and listen to the creek. Our young boys also love to play in it.

What makes this property unique

It's only a half mile to the Day Lodge at Alyeska, a world class ski resort. In the summer the resort offers mountain biking, and the area has an almost infinite amount of amazing hiking trails.
