    This home on the lake was over the top! Mark and Dawn made sure we had everything we needed down to firewood for the firepit. Home was so amazing we didn't want to venture out. Thank you for such an awesome stay!!

    This is truly a PRIVATE Lakefront home. It was well equipped, comfortable and clean. The hosts Mark and Dawn were so hospitable. After giving us time to settle in they stopped by and told us about the history of the house and showed us were everything was. They gave us great information on activities, dining locations and hiking trails.Great house and Great Hosts!

    It was incredible. Dawn and Mark were extremely communicative from months before the trip to during our actual stay. We were given countless recommendations and tips for vacationing in Alaska. The place was immaculate and the attention to detail and design was highly aesthetic. Dawn even baked scones for us on our last morning. We cannot recommend this cabin enough!

    This property was pristine. Dawn made the check in and checkout seamless. It was refreshing to not have wifi and be off the grid digitally, but have every comfort of home. The home had everything one would want; coffee, soap, utensils, etc. and they provided a wonderful gift basket to help make you feel at home. The view overlooking the lake was priceless and not seeing any other homes or people was amazingly peaceful and private. Dawn and Mark treat you like their house guests and their hospitality was second to none. Thank you!

    Loved this property inside and out! Especially enjoyed walking the well kept trails to bird watch and explore the lake scenery and river’s edge; appreciated the stocked and very clean kitchen to cook up our halibut catch of the day; always love a hassle-free check in, and valued our hosts’ kindness, generosity and attention to detail. Thanks for a great trip!

    This cabin did not disappoint! We enjoyed everything about this cabin! We hiked around the cabin, panned for gold, and enjoyed the view of the lake! The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. The host was so kind and we took their advice when picking where to eat in Steward. We would definitely stay here again!

    This was the best home that we've ever stayed at! We loved everything about it! Not only was the home perfect but the hosts were also the best. Dawn went above and beyond in providing lots of info and answering any questions that we had about the area. She also provided lots of info about activities that we were interested in as well. We've never had an experience with such thorough hosts. The little details that they put into making this stay wonderful didn't go unnoticed and was very much appreciated. The lake fronting the home is breathtaking! We also loved the screened in porch where we could be outside but still safe from mosquitoes. Loved the gas fireplace also...instant fire and warmth! The view from in the home was also beautiful. While part of our family went out to fish, the rest of us didn't feel like we were wasting any time while we relaxed back at the home and took in the beautiful views. The little details that Mark and Dawn put into our stay made it so special...a beautiful welcome basket, a selection of coffee, teas, and hot chocolate, scones that were freshly baked when we checked out, beautiful fresh flowers for us to enjoy, pans to go gold panning at the creek nearby, a great selection of books to choose to read next to the fireplace, cozy warm throw blankets that we could use on cold days, even a selection of different pillows for for everyone's different preferences! This place was perfect! Would recommend and stay here again in a heartbeat!

    Could not have had a better stay. The hosts were more than accommodating. We even saw a grizzly bear our second day there. The house is immaculate and the views from the window breathtaking. We had perfect weather, and it became perfect homebase for all the activities we wanted to do.
