Summary: This was one of the best cabin rental vacation home we ever stayed in. The host was unbelievably welcoming. You just feel home with the beauty of Alaskan lake and glacier in view. Just fantabulous. Cabin was clean and had everything essentials and top notch! I will come here again in future.
