About this property

Cabin By The Lake centrally located, full kitchen, washer & dryer

This newly renovated, family friendly, cabin is located on Finger Lake with a view of the Talkeetna mountain range. You can fish, canoe, and snow shoe from the backyard. Rest and relax while you enjoy mountain and sunset views or warm by the fire. You are in a quiet area, but close to shopping and restaurants. Right on the Palmer Wasilla line, a great central location or home base for explaining all that Alaska has to offer in every direction. The cabin offers a great stay if you are a couple trying to get away, you are working remotely, or are a family taking vacation.

Great location and view of lake and mountains. Cabin was clean with plenty of supplies for us to use. Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. A great place to stay and relax after a day of exploring the Palmer/Wasilla area. We would definitely stay here again!

View of the lake from the living room and porch are stunning. Our stay was very quiet all of the four days we stayed. Location is close to amenities while maintaining a feel of being remote. Host Haley was easy to communicate with. Everything worked as expected, i.e., hot water, microwave, fridge, coffee, TV, etc. Bed was comfortable. Next year, we will take advantage of the available paddle boat.

The cabin is very nice with a lovely lake view. However what the pictures does not show is the cabin is sandwiched between two big houses. With a security camera watching your cabin. I didn’t come all the way to Alaska to be in a subdivision. I have included updated photos of what it really looks like.

We had an excellent stay! The place was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. Having games and access to the Grizzly Fitness Center was incredibly convenient and made our stay even more enjoyable. Haley was an amazing host, she went above and beyond to be helpful and made the whole experience seamless. We would absolutely recommend this place to everyone and would love to stay here again!

Thank you Aaron. Come back in the winter when the aurora is predicted to be visible, to do some ice fishing, or snow shoeing on the lake.
