Good to know

Bring your family, friends, pets, kids and enjoy this peaceful and original Alaskan log cabin away from it all positioned right on Goldstream Creek with its own pond with fish and migratory birds. This is a Dry Cabin with NO RUNNING WATER, NO SHOWER. There is an outside, partially exposed pit toilet giving you a true Alaskan experience. Inside, there's a sink with a faucet connected to a 5-gallon water container. This setup mirrors the reality for many in Alaska, where permafrost prevents well installation. Water must be manually hauled to the cabin, with a jug stored under the sink and a pump for dispensing. Winter bookings require 4x4 and winter tires. No refunds

Welcome to your own little cabin in the woods. This is just off Sheep Creek Rd., and feels like you're away from it all, but yet you're only 15-20 minutes from the airport, 10-15 from major shopping, 5-10 minutes from the university and just 1.8 miles to the nearest showerhouse/laundry facility and awesome local restaurant/bar, Ivory Jack's. The cabin is situated on 2 acres of huge old spruce trees, with Goldstream Creek encompassing the property line, along with your very own little pond where migratory birds love to come and go. You do have a few closer neighbors who are all quiet and nice. It is a sweet, safe and peaceful little Goldstream neighborhood. You'll drive back Golden Valley Dr. (the road you turn onto off of Sheep Creek Rd.) and take it all the way back (you'll pass others' cabins with no trespassing and other hilarious signs) until you get to Starwood Ct. which is a Y and look for the red metal poppies. Veer to the left here and you'll dead end into the cabin (you'll pass my neighbors on the left who have little kids so always toys out front)!

This cabin retreat was absolutely perfect! It remains my best getaway yet! I couldn't ask anymore of the place itself, or Andy as the host! From start to finish, it was perfect for me! Just adorable! The Northern lights also put on a show the first 2 days I was there! in fact, the actually followed the road to the. cabin and remained above all night! spectacular! It was convenient to access different locations, but felt miles away! I can't say enough! It's an experience that will stay with me! -April

Loved loved loved this place, it was so cozy and a lot more spacious than we thought it would be! We stayed in the winter so the only thing I would note is that the outhouse is hard to get to when there is a few feet of snow on the ground. But other than that, it was a great stay.
