Winter Wonderland

Start your snowy mornings with a hot coffee on the covered deck, enveloped by a serene spruce old growth forest with resort views. Head to Alyeska Resort for the best downhill skiing Alaska has to offer, or explore the nearby Moose Meadows via snow shoe or cross country ski. When you're ready for more, try Winter fat-tire biking or contact the Local Heli-ski guides. After warming up by the wood stove or in the sauna, head out to the nearby Girdwood Brewing company and local food trucks.



Summer in the Forest

In the warmer months, the spruce forests surrounding the home burst with high-bush Blueberries and Salmon berries, offering a true Alaskan experience. Follow the spectacular hiking trails to Virgin Creek Falls and Winner Creek Falls, or hike the resort for views of Turnagain arm and glaciers complete with an epic tram ride down. Enjoy the festivals, eateries or the spa. Take a day trip to fish Kenai or raft Six Mile Creek. The long summer days are perfect for enjoying the private stone patio and fire pit with unobstructed mountain views.
