The room did not have a sofa bed, as we had reserved. However, the staff hustled up a solution, which was fine for our one-night stay. A wonderful view from the balcony.

Small older lakefront property with excellent dining room and service. Dock allows for boat and float plane access. Water sport equipment available for rent. Excellent front desk staff. Clean comfortable room although no maid service during our stay, towels available upon request. About a 10-minute drive to Wasilla.

Sofa bed was broken. Staff arranged for us to have another room additional room so we could sleep 3. Bathroom could be updated. Caulking around edges of shower were missing. Food still in refrigerator. It would be nice to have extra coffee supplies and towels for both rooms since we were there for multiple nights.

The staff was very nice, when we arrived our room had a missing remote so the TV did not work. The young lady who came to the room to check it out did not have a solution. The next day the person took a remote from the restaurant who had 5 of them and had us use it. Wonderful thinking outside of the box. The room and furniture were fantastic but the mattress was very soft so I did not do so good but my husband slept fine.

Beautiful location right on the lake! Fun watching the fish jumping in the lake and planes taking off and landing right at the dock. The attached restaurant is fantastic!! Service is very good. The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom could use some TLC and updating. Just beware when staying here...They close at 9:00! We were driving from the airport and got a call they would leave the key to our room in a lock box on the door and they gave us the code as the front desk would be closed when we arrived. They do not offer breakfast or even coffee in the morning. They open at 11:00! If you are staying over a weekend be sure you have plenty to toilet paper as they closed all day on Monday and don't open again until 4:00 on Tuesday!! There is no one on the premises to assist you. A lady would come by daily and ask if you need towels but there wasn't any daily room service to make the bed or clean etc. Do yourself a favor and book a room upstairs. We stayed on the first floor for the first part of our visit and it was very noisy. We went away for the weekend and stayed upstairs upon our return and it was quieter. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay there again. The best part was the restaurant! Great food!
