The Perfect Getaway!

sas9382 Hawaii
Review Submitted: September 8, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Me and my husband stayed in the smaller cabin and LOVED it! Paul and Ginny were so helpful and kind and their cabin is beautiful. The location is perfect if you are looking to get away and relax as you listen to the sound of the river that is out front of the cabin. Great salmon fishing is close and it's a good location to get to many places, north or south. It has a great view and the cabin is wonderful inside. I hope to stay here again and I plan on recommending it to anyone interested in visiting Alaska!

Had a great time staying at the cabin this past July. My brother and two sons had the vacation of a lifetime! The cabin was perfectly located for access to Hatcher Pass, Talkeetna and Mt. McKinley. Definitely off the beaten path, but still had all the comforts of home and ironically could get a cell signal! Didn't see any bears at the cabin, but did see bald eagles.

Review Submitted: July 16, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We were 2 couples that needed a place to stay for 1 night on our way to Denali National Park. The pictures on the website do not do the Inn justice. Beautiful vaulted ceilings, a full size kitchen stocked with plates, utensils, and glasses, and 2 bedrooms with the most comfortable beds that were well received after a long day of traveling from the East Coast. Communication between myself and Paul was excellent. Any questions were answered promptly. I would not hesitate to recommend the Inn and would definitely stay here again when (not if) we return to Alaska.
Owner's Response: Thank you Brian, we are looking forward to seeing you again, here in
Alaska. Thanks again for the wonderful response.

We enjoyed perfect peace in late September and wish we had more time there. Absolutely beautiful, restorative, completely comfortable with very helpful hosts. Thanks much.

This is a FABULOUS getway! It was a perfect setting for our family's long weekend. The guys got to fish just steps away from the house, and the gals got to chat and prepare the meals...and we all had fun playing games. The home is decorated beautifully and is so well stocked. We can't wait to return.
