Alaska Log Cabins on the Pond

Not a happy camper I was very disappointed when I arrived at the cabin, and I called Syd to tell him so. There is no running water in those cabins and he does not disclose that on his ad . Do you have to go down between cabins two and three to the shared two showers and bathrooms . There’s not even a way to get Water to the cabin other than a water pitcher in the refrigerator. I was disappointing because the ad, in my opinion, is misleading, and gives a false pretense of what the property is.

Alaska's way Staying here was a great experience! Beautiful scenery in front of cabin! Cabin was awesome. People are amazing!

The cabins had a comfy feel and was nice to open the windows and hear the rain at night.

There were a few detractors from the cabins, but they were overwhelmed by the positives by far. You should note that the cabins' bathrooms are detached, but they are clean with good hot running water. The few trout in the lake are catch and release only, but there is an unlimited amount in Birch Lake, just 45 minutes down the road. Jim is more than willing to give you all the pointers or advice to bring them home. Also, the Wifi was down when I was there. However, that was because of a storm. Despite these setbacks, the cabins were an incredibly good place to stay. I saw beavers and sand bill cranes while staying there, the nature around was incredible, and Jim did everything possible to make my stay as good as it could be. When he learned I was interested in gold panning, he personally took me to two spots within 15 minutes of Fairbanks where I could pan for all the gold I wanted, and he gave me pointers on methods and techniques. You won't get that service at the local hotels.

I loved my stay here, everything was clean, and cleaning products provided for guests to help clean up after themselves in the shared bathroom, and those where awesome, never had to wait even with full cabin, clean and had everything youd need. The cabin is beautiful and pretty private and quiet for being right next to another one. Id give my stay a 10 out of 19 would recommend

The cabins are very nice, great for a getaway. The only negative is there is no running water in the cabin (they do provide a pitcher with water) and the shared bathroom. But those are very small things, I had no issues going to the public bathroom. Overall these cabins are perfect for a weekend getaway, 5 out of 5 stars.
