The lakefront property is located in the heart of Alaska's scenic Mat-Su Valley, 1 mile off the Parks Hwy. Enjoy the property by taking a paddle boat ride around the lake, followed by outdoor cooking in the picnic area and an evening campfire. The scenery cannot be more beautiful! We have firewood for sale on-site (see last photo on photo section.) There is also a charcoal grill and cast iron cookware. We do NOT provide charcoal.

The owners have lived in Alaska for more than 40 years, teaching public school in Alaska's rural communities. The owners live on the property as well, and try to greet every guest, no matter what time you arrive.
