We had a wonderful time at the Kelly Lake cabin. It was a short hike from the parking area. The cabin was spotless and the outhouse was clean. Our grandkids enjoyed the experience and asked to go again. We hiked, fished, and sat around the campfire. We had a wonderful family time and the grandkids are asking to go again.

Abin was clean, no poachers, quiet solitude and plenty of firewood available. Could use a new saw blade😁

Double bunk beds were helpful. The windows have wood covers for summer nights.

Great cabin, beautiful views, plenty of space for a family. It’s the perfect quick escape from Anchorage. We loved having the choice of two canoes or a rowboat to explore the lake and fish. This cabin is a 5 star cabin, minus one thing: it’s not tight enough to keep mosquitoes out. The number of mosquitoes inside increased over night, despite burning a citronella candle. Bring a thermacell!

Honestly, I hate your website. I use it to reserve cabins all the time. Often times I can’t find the calendar. It’s not just my issue. When I call, customer service always says they can see it. Others I know have the same issue. Make it pop up on the cabin’s initial page.
