About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

North Pole Cabin Retreat

Our North Pole Cabin Retreat is a great place to come for a day, a week, or a month or more. A person can experience life in Alaska in comfort. Our log cabin was built in 2002 and has had many guests over the years. We provide housing year round, and winter or summer the cabin is warm, dry, and safe. Running water is a must, as are clean comfortable beds. The cabin has two queen beds, kitchenette, full private bath, BBQ and picnic area outside. Parking is nearby. We are only 2 miles from grocery, dentist, medical, gas stations, gift shops, dining establishments, churches and bars. Although you are close to the comforts of everyday living, it will seem as if you are a long way out in the woods. We are located in a private, wooded property with a waterway flowing by. In summer there are many nesting ducks. There are many wild flowers growing all around, as well as hanging baskets of flowers we plant for your enjoyment.

A wonderful, cozy stay! The property consists of one building split into two rental cabins, but it still maintains a very quiet, secluded atmosphere. It’s conveniently located just 3-5 minutes from fuel, food, and shops. Nancy Peterson is an excellent host who provided clear directions and expert local advice the moment we booked. Thanks to her 'must-do' suggestions, we were able to plan our itinerary with ease. Highly recommended for a well-located getaway.

Staying here was a huge part of what made our Alaska trip so special. It felt like living in our own private cabin in the woods but was just a few minutes from stores and restaurants. All this snow and cold is an unfamiliar environment to me but Nancy made us feel safe and comfortable and had lots of suggestions and helpful tips, and kept the driveway plowed and plugged in our car for us. Plus we really enjoyed visiting with her! I will always have wonderful memories of staying here!! Bed was comfortable, and we enjoyed having a bathtub to soak in. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our time here so much. The peace and quiet was so relaxing, and only minutes away from restaurants and shopping. Nancy was informative and friendly, and has a lot of great tips on things to do in the area. House was very clean, everything provided, and check in and out was so easy. Would stay again. PS loved the ducks in the stream out back.
