Glacier Cabin is a hand-built log cabin on our 320 acre working Alaskan homestead. It offers two queen bedrooms, two bathrooms, hot water, electricity, and internet. This is a working homestead, if you are looking for a polished resort experience, or are uncomfortable around animals, this may not be the right fit for your stay. Enjoy simple rustic comfort, wide open spaces, and an authentic taste of rural Alaska. The space Glacier Cabin is a private cabin on our 320-acre Alaskan homestead first built in the 1970s by four generations using timber milled on site. After sitting empty for over a decade, our family is restoring the property, so some areas are worn, rustic, or unfinished. This is an active project, not a polished resort, and staying here means experiencing a real working homestead. The cabin sits in a remote area surrounded by forests, fields, and wide open skies. Wrangell–St. Elias National Park is a short drive away, offering hiking, fishing, and glacier adventures. Scenic drives along the Richardson Highway pass rivers, mountains, and historic sites. The nearest towns are 30 minutes to Chitina, 60 minutes to Glennallen, 105 minutes to Valdez, and 150 minutes to Kennicott. This is a working homestead, so guests will see chickens, free roaming dogs, and farm activity, along with normal equipment and maintenance around the property. These are part of daily life here. The cabin includes hot water, electricity, WiFi, and basic cooking essentials. If you are looking for a quiet, remote Alaskan stay surrounded by nature and a real homestead environment, this is a great fit. If you are expecting a polished resort experience, this may not be the right place. Guest access Guests at Glacier Cabin have full access to the cabin they booked. Other cabins or areas on the homestead may look worn, empty, or under repair, and that is part of the property’s history and ongoing care. You can enjoy your cabin without concern, even if other areas are being restored or are less finished. You are welcome to explore the grounds and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, but some areas are private or in use, so please stay out of locked rooms and other buildings unless invited. Self-check in makes arrival easy, and we are always nearby if you need anything. We appreciate guests who value independence, quiet, and respect for the space, helping keep the homestead calm and welcoming for everyone. Other things to note Please check out the guest guide, as it includes all the necessary information about the area, what to do, and details to help make your stay enjoyable. This is an active homestead with farm work and heavy equipment operating from early morning into the evening. We appreciate your understanding that this activity is not subject to quiet hours. Harvest and daily operations follow the rhythm of the land, not personal schedules. There are over 40 chickens and 2 turkeys, including one large toms who roam freely. The toms aren't aggressive; they just like to show off because they know they’re handsome. Please don’t chase, hold, pet, or physically interact with any of the animals. While we ask that you keep a respectful distance, the chickens may not follow that rule and could walk right up to you. Feel free to take photos and videos from a safe distance. This helps keep both the animals and you safe. Important: Chicks may be moving around near their mothers. For your safety, and to avoid a fine or an unpleasant encounter, please do not approach or touch them.
