Optimal rustic cabin

We loved this place! We were the only people on the lake all weekend and the wood fired sauna beside it is amazing. Michael was about the best host we've ever had.

Dry Cabin

Michael is a very nice host. The front part of his cabin was open for showers, flush toilet, sink to wash dishes, and a washer/dryer. There was plenty of chopped firewood to burn to keep warm.

amazing little cabin

this place is truly special-- a small rustic cabin steps away from a beautiful lake. Mykl is a wonderful host, kind and welcoming and fun to talk with. the value is outstanding, especially since Mykl includes use of bikes and a kayak with the cabin.

Stunning views over a lake

Such a great place! We absolutely loved the dock and sitting on there reading late into the evening. Lots of birds and small fish to enjoy watching. The cabin is exactly as pictured. Very clean and thoughtfully put together. An especially great place for anyone interested in sustainable furniture design. The cabin was full of great pieces and thoughtful touches.

Perfect spot on the lake

Cozy winter spot to stay! We imagine it's great in summer too. Michael was an excellent host who had the fire going when we arrived and gave us great, local food recommendations. Perfect for a weekend getaway. Ski trails around the lake(s) are accessible from the front door!
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Mar 2021
Thanks for visiting, Nicole. Come back and visit this Summer. You folks would enjoy the hike out to our campsite on Possum Creek. Mosquitoes will be waiting! M

Quaint lake cabin

Very eclectic cabin nestled in the woods off Christiansen lake. Love this cabin! It has all the amenities and even a sauna (although we didn't use it). Definitely would love to come back again.
Stayed 1 night in Feb 2021
Response from VrboOwner on 22 Feb 2021
Sorry you didn’t get to use the sauna. In our brief days of Alaskan Summer, there is a hot shower next to it, or one may hop in the lake. Of course, that time of year, one must factor in the mosquitoes. They are so much less a bother in February. Thanks for visiting!

True Alaska Cabin

What a fun little cabin! If you want a plush location this isn't it although the beds are extremely comfy. It was fun to rough it for ours girls adventure weekend. Michael is a great and very friendly host and we loved chatting with him and hearing about some of his adventures in life. We'd love to come back in the summer to enjoy the lake.
