I have lived in Alaska for 40 years and traveled by dog sled, kayak, small plane and boat throughout the state. I have been hosting guests from around the world since 2006, and love telling folks about Alaska. My sled dog Vincent is often available to be admired and petted if you've left your own pets at home and are in need of a "dog fix". Feasting on the homemade heirloom sourdough waffles is also a special treat!

You do need your own transportation to stay here. There are no shuttles or taxis.

Rooms are large and filled with natural light in a space made for mountain living. When it’s time to retire from the day, unwind in the open and airy living room and enjoy the panoramic views from large picture windows.

The bedroom offers a sumptuous Queen-size bed, complete with a down comforter and loads of fluffy pillows. A living room sofa also unfolds into an inviting Queen-size bed.

The fully equipped kitchen has spices, oils, teas and coffee (any mode you want to make it – drip, French press, programmable coffee maker) as well as flour and popcorn.
You will also find all the fixings for traditional sourdough waffles. A hands-on experience, you are provided with everything you need to make your own delicious sourdough waffles! Sourdough was a staple in Alaska history and this heirloom sourdough comes with a fascinating history you can read about at Alaska’s Golden Spoon. (It is also featured in The Homesteader’s Handbook by Tricia Brown)

The laundry room is equipped with a state-of-the-art washer and dryer, and laundry soap. The bathroom is stocked with towels, soap, shampoo and toilet paper – and even bubble bath for those inclined!

The artwork that graces the walls are pieces I have collected since coming to Alaska in 1981. (and I love telling stories about every one of them!) A brochure with a brief history of each piece will make you too fall in love with the great artists of the Last Frontier!

Hi-speed Internet and a large collection of Alaskan books will round out your entertainment needs.

GUEST ACCESS
You will have access to the entire upstairs of the house. The downstairs garage is merely storage and cleaning supplies, which we respectfully request no entrance.


INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
I live in a small cabin on the property. You can reach me by text or phone. I usually work mornings guiding tours in the park, and am usually available to answer questions or offer advice on the local area in the late afternoon and evenings.

Contrary to most vacation rentals, there are NO additional cleaning fees on this property!

Savor your own fresh prepared meals at home or visit one of the locally owned restaurants that abound. In fact, the renowned 229 Parks Restaurant & Tavern is just a short drive away – but be sure and make reservations well advance.

Minutes away, Denali National Park offers visitors a variety of options from hikes to tours to experiences that will last a life time.
