This cabin was great! Easy to walk to town, very clean and well updated. Comfortable for 6 adults. Fun to sit outside and play cards. The host was so nice and even helped us jump our car in the morning! Would definitely recommend staying here.

We absolutely loved our stay at Chinook Winds! The owners went above and beyond by picking us up at the train station and even giving us a tour of the town, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.
As owners of a travel agency, we usually stay in large corporate hotels and rarely book cabins or locally owned accommodations. This was a last-minute reservation, and it completely exceeded our expectations. Everything was exceptional—from the incredibly comfortable bed to the soft towels and great coffee. It was, without question, the best lodging we experienced during our Alaska trip.
The photos truly don't do this place justice. We can't say enough good things about Chinook Winds and will absolutely be recommending and booking it for our clients in the future. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

Cozy cabins near town
Getting to the cabins was a breeze and we were able to settle in quickly. The cabin itself was really cozy and had everything we needed. Walking to town was a breeze and we wouldn't hesitate to come back again!
Our cabin was clean and cute, nicely appointed, and in close walking distance to everything. We would stay here again.
