Stayed Aug 3, 2025Great fun! Unique and fun place to stay. We went on the dog sled ride and had such a great experience with Carrie explaining everything and letting us help with the dogs. They were so great- everything was!

Stayed Jul 28, 2025The property is an entire 1-bedroom house - full kitchen, large bedroom with a heavenly king bed plus a built-in bunk bed. We were invited to use the washer, which helped a lot. Sat out on the deck to relax. There’s a cafe on property with fantastic meals -very reasonably priced and so good that we ended up eating breakfast, lunch and dinner there over the 2 days. Hint; the scones and pulled pork sliders were delish and the triple chocolate cheesecake took care of my sweet tooth for days. We chose this property for the closeness to the guided fishing trip hubby had booked and it ended up being one of the best spots on our vacation.

Stayed Jul 6, 2025Trailside was simply perfect. Spacious, quiet, comfortable, and a great value. Generously and warmly appointed. Super friendly (and inspiring) hosts. Felt like home. Sweet dogs nearby, and a fabulous cafe next store. I wish we were here longer.

Stayed Sep 24, 2025Nice little cabin that was very clean and warm when we arrived. Fully stocked with anything you would need. The king size bed was very comfortable.There is a Coffee shop next door with yummy shakes, drinks, food options and dog treats too! Located just off the highway but also felt secluded and safe. The owners are very nice and accommodating and we really enjoyed our stay. This will be our first pick when returning to Alaska! Thank you Kale and Carrie!

This cozy VRBO is perfectly situated just off highway 3 in Willow about 2.5hts south of Denali National Park. It’s right on a working dogsledding property. Whether you’re headed into the park for hiking, wildlife viewing, or just passing through, this stay offers a warm, no-fuss place to rest and recharge. Check in was seamless, communication was wonderful.Enjoy the unique charm of Alaska with the chance to see sled dogs up close(in winter), explore nearby towns, or simply relax in a quiet, scenic setting.

Stayed Sep 6, 2024Communication with host was awesome, check in was super easy, and stay was great! Cozy cabin lower level, with a really nice large bedroom upstairs. Large patio for hanging out, and the sounds of howling sled dogs in the morning really accents the Alaskan outdoors.

Stayed Aug 28, 2024Perfect spot for single individual, couple or small family. Full kitchen had all the basics needed, fantastic location, the cafe next door open 8am-8pm was HUGE, food/service exceeded expectations and the dogs were a pleasant surprise. Kale is the ultimate host and made me + my 9yo feel at home from the movement we arrived all thru check out. We will be back again!

Stayed Aug 12, 2024Lovely stay here! The people who own this place also own ann amazing team of worker dogs who train for the iditirod. They love the area, their life, and love to share their modern cabin with us! Trailside Cafe is run next door, and the food is excellent. The beds (king and twin) beds, both upstairs, are comfy. Note that the bathroom is only downstairs. Lovely hosts and the best of luck to them!
