Cabin By The Lake centrally located, full kitchen, washer & dryer
This newly renovated, family friendly, cabin is located on Finger Lake with a view of the Talkeetna mountain range. You can fish, canoe, and snow shoe from the backyard. Rest and relax while you enjoy mountain and sunset views or warm by the fire. You are in a quiet area, but close to shopping and restaurants. Right on the Palmer Wasilla line, a great central location or home base for explaining all that Alaska has to offer in every direction.

Our 2nd stay. Very happy with the place. Fits what we are looking for when we come to town and visit family. Good for small families that enjoy a quiet setting in the valley.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin! The cabin was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed to make our weekend perfect. The host went above and beyond—providing clear directions and sharing great tips for local spots to shop and dine. It’s clear they put a lot of thought into making sure guests feel welcome and at home. Whether relaxing in the cabin or exploring the area, everything about our stay was seamless. We can’t wait to come back!
