"Voices from the Cabin"

 

           
“... By pure luck were referred to Chad and Kelly.  What a wonderful welcome and perfect first nights stay in Alaska.”

Rich and Jean from New Hampshire

            “Soaring with the eagles.  I saw them watch the Kings with keen eyes, then catch a few in front of the cabin.  Thanks a lot.”   

Mike from Nevada
           
            “Caught and released ten salmon and landed a 35-pounder.  Kelly and Chad are great hosts, full of life and generosity.  I really appreciate the chance to visit and fish.”

Dan from Canada

 

            “I truly loved this place!  Your grandpa did great, and it is so good to see the family caring for the place and sharing it with us and others.  Your hospitality was great.  This place felt like home!  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  Hope to see you again.  Awesome outhouse.”

 

Gary from Texas

            “My husband and I enjoyed a peaceful and romantic getaway with gentle rain and candlelight.  The sound of the river and the feeling of being secluded were a balm to our hectic lives.  With a grateful heart...”

Wanda from Missouri

 

            “We experienced a dream fish trip come true.  Seems Chad found them (14 catch and release) when few people were catching.  Supreme hosts and family.  Thanks again.” 

Paul from Washington

 

            “What a fantastic find! We were so comfortable here and your special touches and tasty treats really made things “homey.” The cabin, the views, the sound of the river rapids below...one beautiful spot.  We will definitely be back!  Thank you for sharing your homestead with us!” 
(p.s.  Loved the pristine outhouse as well!)

Kim from Alaska

           
           
            “We didn't have to travel far to get to the true woods!  Coffee cake was warm and truly homemade.  Hard to find good-hearted people in the world today.  We look forward to making this an annual event.”

Pamela from Alaska

            “...Wonderful location, wonderful hosts.  Caught a 10-inch trout.”

Naomi and family from New Jersey

 

            “Thanks for sharing your Alaska with us.  What a unique experience! Keep the spirit alive.”

Audrey and Bob from Michigan

           
            “Thank you for the spectacular views and sounds of Alaska!  There is nothing better in life than sitting by a roaring campfire and watching the wonders of nature—we loved the hours spent doing just that.  The pristine beauty of Alaska surrounded us while we were here.  Your hospitality and great food got us ready for our daily adventures.  Thanks again for the real Alaska feel!  We had a great time!”

Cathy and Chris from Missouri

 

“Fantastic fishing and rafting the river,  most of all fantastic people.”

Garrett in Nevada
