Fantastic stay. "Cabin" is an understatement--this cozy rental had all the amenities of home including a gas stove and laundry. We stayed in winter and the fire (thermostat controlled) was so comforting. Fantastic view of the lake. Owner was very communicative/responsive and helped us with special requests. Thank you HP we will be staying again!

The location of the cabin was very easy to navigate and was in a quiet area. Haley, the host was the kindest person. Greatest communication and willingness to help when needed. The cabin itself is just outright adorable. Extremely clean and provided the basics for coffee and breakfast if needed. The bed was super comfortable and the temperature of cabin was comfortable. It felt very homey, safe and quiet. I most certainly will be looking to book with Haley again in the future and look forward to staying there again. It was absolutely worth it.
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!
Very cozy cute cabin located on a lake! Haley was absolutely wonderful to work with! She made our stay very homey! Would definitely recommend staying here!
Enjoyed our stay at this property. Host went out of her way to make us feel welcomed. The views are awesome with the lake and mountains in the background. We would definitely come back.
Such a kind host, was willing to give detailed directions, sent suggestions for things to do places to eat, the place felt like home and was very quiet and safe!! We had a great time enjoying the view off the porch and watching the swans on the lake!! Hopefully she will accept us back in the summer so we can use a kayak and swim!! Beautiful place 10/10 recommend!
The cabin was cute, well-stocked with essentials, clean, and comfortable. The owner was very helpful and easily accessible. My favorite part of the stay was drinking coffee out on the deck…enjoying the lake and mountain views!
This cabin was so comfortable and clean. Everything we needed for our Alaska vacation! Haley was a wonderful property manager. Very clean and comfortable. Will definitely return.
Haley is very helpful and We enjoyed their Beautiful Cabin by the Lake, I am telling you Everything You Need is Inside the Cabin, so it's better than a hotel room.
Haley was the best host!!! We felt so blessed and grateful to have had a chance to experience her beautiful property. Although our stay was short we found everything we needed from coffee and tea in the kitchen, to laundry detergent and plenty of towels in the bathroom. Haley was kind enough to notify us when the northern lights were out and we were able to capture some beautiful pictures. We will definitely be staying again in the future!! Thank you again Haley!
We stayed in the Cabin by the Lake for three nights and it was perfect for my husband and I. The bed was extremely comfortable and it had everything we needed. The view was just beautiful. I’d highly recommend this property.
