About this house rental

You'll get the whole house, 3 acres of privacy, an amazing view, rustic seats on the bluff and all the amenities you need. The house was custom built by us in 2000 and has a VERY OPEN floor plan. What we mean by a very open floor plan is there are NO doors upstairs. The master bedroom faces the mountains and the stunning view! It is separated by open hallway and a curtain. So please only consider booking our house if you are very comfortable with the folks you are traveling with! The second bedroom is located in a quiet section of a large room above the garage that also serves as the living room...again NO doors it is all one room. That space can also support a queen size air mattress. Again, we offer the perfect space for a family or group of very close friends.

There is a couch and loveseat upstairs and the decor is totally Alaskan. Downstairs is another loveseat, a full kitchen with a table right in front of a giant window looking out at the mountains. There is a full bathroom downstairs off of the kitchen- yes it has a door.

You will be off the beaten path, but within striking distance of much of the greatness Alaska has to offer! The road to the house is a dirt road. The driveway and outer portion of the house is dirt/gravel as well. Please be aware that the area can be muddy if there has been a lot of rain. That includes the driveway and area around the house.

Important to note about our house; it is a custom log house with some leveling challenges. During the spring-summer the permafrost changes, the ground sinks and floors become unlevel. We work hard each season remediate shifting; but would like to be open and clear that you be aware that floors may be unlevel during your stay, which also effects some of the ground floor doors, they still work, just not flawlessly.

At the house you will have tv, wi-fi, and a telephone for local calls. There are cell phone towers near-by that support GCI and AT&T service. Other mobile providers may not provide adequate service in the area.

What a beautiful home to spend a relaxing time in Alaska! We were very comfortable and loved the amazing view! This home was our "hub" to daily explorations/hikes. After a full day hiking, it felt great to retreat here.Very clean and had everything we needed. We'll be back!

Everyday the view from the kitchen was incredible. The cabin is accurately described, we had no problems finding it or checking in/out, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. It was clean and had all kinds of extra amenities that made our stay more comfortable including tea for our nightly before-bed beverage. Admittedly, with a lot of driving, we managed to explore the Southeast corner of AK and felt this cabin was a decent drive from many must see places, and even when we just felt like staying put, there was much to do in the local area—Gulkana Raft Rentals was very close by and an easy/affordable way to get on the river and away from the mosquitos:). Speaking of the river, wow is there an awesome view from the cabin—I highly rec’d a campfire, we had 2 and the smoke keeps the bugs away for the most part. It’s worth a few bites anyhow! Lots of memories made here—so glad we found it! Thank-you for sharing your spot with us:)

This place was great, what a view. Everything was as expected. Loved sitting out back and looking at the beautiful view.

The view is amazing, the owner is responsive and the property is well located. This is the end of the positives. The foundation is sinking to the point there are significant warps to the building. I measured the floor angle and found a 1-3% angle depending on where you were in the house. That means a drop of roughly four inches over 20 feet when a safe house has only a 1/2 inch variation over the same distance. This was not put in the listing despite the property owner knowing about it. Upstairs wobbles and feels unsafe. The slant of the floors results in visible gaps where the floor meets the walls. Mice in the walls were loud at night and were located in the wall by the main bedroom’s headboard. A local cat is aware and frequently tries to get into the house to hunt. We saw her successfully get a mouse in the garage. No battery for the smoke detector. I would not recommend the house until the foundation is fixed. If these issues were fixed, or at least disclosed, I would feel more comfortable recommending this property.
