Very peaceful location. It was nice to be able to bring our dogs. And off the road. Nice touches. Well updated cabin. Host was very responsive and very friendly. A wonderful relaxing retreat with views of the glacier.

Very nice stay with stocked kitchen. Owner was very responsive. Would recommend for 2 people as there is only 1 bed. The air mattress doesnt work thru the night. Within 1 hour the air started deflating and we ended up sleeping on the floor. Other than sleeping situation everything else was great.

From the Owner: "Thank you for your feedback. The cabin has one permanent bed, and I also provided brand-new air mattresses to accommodate additional guests. As far as I knew, there had been no issues with them.
I wish you had mentioned any problems during their stay; you texted me daily, so I’m not sure why this wasn’t brought up. Had I known, I would have done my best to resolve the issue right away.
Guest comfort is very important to me, and I appreciate the opportunity to improve."
Beautiful spot, friendly, helpful host.

We had a few issue with the pipes freezing but we had the most amazing experience with the northern lights on New Years Eve! The sky morphed into a 5 minute Aurora buerealis firework show! I hope I can add a video to show here. We have been on a ten day trip and this was the best show of the northern lights!
