About this property

The Dovetail Cabin

  • The Dovetail Log Cabin and private bunk room feature a cozy log home feel with upscale Alaska decor. The cabin showcases local artists' works such as stained glass, limited edition prints, and woodcarvings. The kitchen cabinets are stocked with dishes, cookware, coffee, tea, and spices.

    The Dovetail Log Cabin has a 280-degree view with large picture windows and large A-frame windows in the loft bedroom to take in the awesome panorama views. The main floor has a full kitchen and dining room, full bath and a wonderful bay window and lounger for relaxing.

    A spiral staircase leads to a large loft bedroom with a queen size log bed, roll-out sofa, and chair. The sofa in the living room on the main floor is also a hide-a-bed for additional guests. Outside you will find a deck with lounge furniture and a gas grill for cooking the catch of the day. You will find all the amenities of home including satellite TV, games. Our Solarium (a remodeled greenhouse) with hot tub is a short walk and down exterior stairs—but worth the trip!
