Booked this cabin for a girl's trip with 3 adults and 1 child. Everything was great! I want to stress the importance of bear safety becuase we had a black bear pay us a visit during our stay. They have a binder with safety information in the cabin. Another thing to note is that the bunk bed top bunk has a very low clearance. Was okay for my 7 year old but I couldn't imagine a teen or adult being able to sleep comfortably up there. We did not need heat while there. There is one large ceiling fan for the living room, kitchen, dining, and loft, but no fans in the bedrooms. Most windows are able to be opened which was really nice to help control the temperature. I can't think of anything else this cabin could need - there's a very well-stocked spice cabinet! We had a great time exploring Alaska, and this cabin was the perfect landing pad for spending time together and resting between adventures. Our visit was during 4th of July weekend, we were able to see and hear a few fireworks going off toward the main road but nothing super close to the property. There's a Walmart and plenty of dining options nearby in Eagle River, and Anchorage is only about 45 min away and there's lots of options there too! We also went to the Girdwood Forest Fair, which was about an hour and a half drive away. Really couldn't ask for a better location, we made memories here that will last a lifetime. The cabin is very homey and cozy and really was such a special part of our trip!

Unfortunately, I have to give a 3-star rating due to the issue we had with the boiler. We came back one evening and the boiler was malfunctioning. Because it was late, I did not contact the owner but instead the 24-hour support at Vacasa. They were not helpful and after 3 hours on and off the phone with them, I figured out my own solution and went to bed at midnight. When I contacted the owner the next day, she was very responsive and very helpful getting to a workable solution. Unfortunate that she has to use Vacasa to manage the rental.Otherwise, the cabin was great. In a quiet neighborhood and outside of the lights of the town. The guidebook from the owner had great recommendations for hikes and places to eat.
