Cabin By The Lake centrally located, full kitchen, washer & dryer

This newly renovated, family friendly, cabin is located on Finger Lake with a view of the Talkeetna mountain range. You can fish, canoe, and snow shoe from the backyard. Rest and relax while you enjoy mountain and sunset views or warm by the fire. You are in a quiet area, but close to shopping and restaurants. Right on the Palmer Wasilla line, a great central location or home base for explaining all that Alaska has to offer in every direction. The cabin offers a great stay if you are a couple trying to get away, you are working remotely, or are a family taking vacation.

Home away from home!
My girlfriend and I found this cabin on account of bookings we made for a different cabin falling through and once we arrived here, we couldn’t have been happier with the outcome! The cabin was even more beautiful than the pictures portray. Everything within the cabin was well decorated and maintained, tidy and very clean. It was stocked with cookware, usual ingredients for cooking, and coffee. Haley began communicating with us a few hours before our arrival and if we ever inquired about anything during our trip she couldn’t have been more gracious with her accommodations. This area is great because of how accessible it is to the major highways and Anchorage is only 45min to 1hr away. We loved the serenity and quietness of this cabin’s surroundings and even saw a moose in the background one morning while having coffee! This cabin truly played a huge part in the overall satisfaction of our trip!

Wedding getaway
My husband and I stayed at Cabin on the Lake while in town for our daughter’s dream wedding. It was minutes from restaurants and shopping in Palmer and Wasilla. The view was spectacular and the cabin was the perfect size for us. My husband dozed off on the sofa one afternoon and commented how comfortable it was. The bedroom, living room and bathroom were spacious and there was plenty of closet space as well. Haley was wonderful. Upon arriving at the airport, she texted us dining recommendations enroute to the cabin. She even gave us great tourist tips on things to see and do in the Palmer area. I’m really glad she sent us to Hatchers Pass and lodge. The views (and apple pie) were amazing. Driving instructions and parking onsite were spot on, too. Highly recommend this cabin. Great host.

Awesome Experience
We loved the cozy little cabin. The views were breathtaking and we were able to experience Alaska the way we wanted to. Our host was so gracious and understanding, and the most hospitable. We would definitely stay again if and when we come back. I don’t think there would be any other option for us.

Relaxing cozy, well- stocked, clean, convenient. Full size truck with extended cab is a little too big for the driveway with lots of snow :). But we did fine. Loved snowshoeing lake around islands and nearby campground - right from the cabin.

Great place overlooking the lake
My friend and I stayed here for two nights. It's tucked away from the road, easy to access. Extremely clean, everything we needed was there, it has a beautiful deck overlooking Finger Lake. Haley was a gracious hostess and checked to be sure we had what we needed. I would stay here again and recommend it to friends..

Cozy and Inviting
This was a great place to stay. It was in a great neighborhood with beautiful surroundings. The mountain views were beautiful and it was very close to town. If you need somewhere to relax and wind down, this is the place to go. Haley was great.
