About this property

Have a relaxing stay at our off-grid studio style dry cabin. A quaint 12x12 log cabin nestled in the trees at the home of Wildthingz Dog Mushing, professional sled dog team of Iditarod and Yukon Quest dog Musher, Richie and wife Emily.
The cabin is for the traveler looking for something more off the beaten path that still provides some comforts and amenities.
There is solar power to charge your small electronics, like phones & tablets.

There is a futon couch that pulls out into a full sized bed with a memory foam topper. All linens, blankets and towels are provided. There is a cooler for storing your food and all kitchen amenities are provided. There is a propane stove top, propane heater and a small wood stove on chilly nights.
There is a private outhouse outdoors equipped with hand sanitizer and baby wipes for staying clean.
We provide clean drinking water, sanitizer and soap indoors .
There is no shower, but there are showers available for a small fee down the road at the local RV park and Vitus gas station.

The cabin is right off the road and is easily accessible. There is a nice fire ring to hang around in the evening and trails to walk on down to the river. This place is a great getaway, close to Denali national park (30 minutes south) so you can enjoy all of its attractions but be a little removed from the busier hub of tourism.

cozy cabin

Cute little cabin. You get hot shower, reliable heat, clean water, gas stove. Nicely decorated. Perfect for a couple like us. Emily is very responsive and communicates well. The dog mushing tours look excellent and interesting. I would book a tour if we had more time. Thanks Emily and Richie. We enjoyed staying with you.

Off the Grid

Description is spot on - if you want off grid, this is your place. Small, quiet, peaceful & away from it all.

Fun off grid cabin

The cabin was a great get away and a fun way to leave everything else behind. Close to Denali and sightseeing.

Can't wait to go back!

The cabin is really cute! Views and listening to the river were great! Close to awesome trails and a short walk to the river! Emily and Richie were extremely nice and welcoming! We loved getting to meet their doggos! Staying there was an unforgettable experience, would strongly recommend for anyone looking to get away from the typical tourist experience!

What makes this property unique

We strive to maintain a minimal, environmentally conscious lifestyle. We love off grid, haul all of our water from the river and a natural sprint, raise chickens and turkeys, garden and hunt, fish and forage to provide for ourselves the best we can. We want to encourage this lifestyle and allow people the opportunity to visit it from someone else's perspective!
