“A gem off the beaten path!”
+Our family's stay at the cabins will be one to remember: comfortable beds, hot showers, thoughtful touches, and an incredible staff. Conveniently located off the beaten path but within a 15 minute walk of the small town of McCarthy, the cabins' proximity to the Kennecott Mine and Root Glacier were fantastic, including the easy shuttle to go to and from. The cabins even offer day use rentals of crampons to explore the glacier! Coordination with the cabin staff was seamless; they were all so hospitable! We particularly appreciated all the recommendations from Mary. :)
−That we couldn't stay longer.

“Quaint, comfortable, so Alaskan. Loved it”
+Sooo adorable and friendly staff! Loved these cabins so much!! 10/10 recommend
−Location was tough but No fault of the property- they gave great directions! McCarthy is tough in the dark with all the trails and roads intersecting if you don’t have a four wheeler. This was my fault though bc we got in so late! I recommend future stayers look at maps prior to losing phone service and trying to find your way boozed up in the dark in bear country. Again all my fault! Otherwise amazing 10/10

+My golden retriever pup, Maggie, and I had a great time in McCarthy! Communication with the owners was great. The staff was super accommodating and the space was perfect for our visit. Cozy, quiet, peaceful. So much to do in town and in nature. Thank you! We'll be back (and next time, I won't lose my phone)!

“Fabulous cabins, vey comfy, near great hiking.”
+The cabin itself was very cozy, had a great supply of kitchen basics, the shower was warm, the outhouse was fine, and it was a nice spot to be. It was easy to access everything via the shuttle that runs down the street and the bed was super comfortable. The staff were nice.
−Not sure there was much that couldn't been done differently but you do need to get picked up from the staff when you arrive as your car cannot enter the town. That is fine, it's a 20 minute wait. For us there was another group that arrived slightly before us which meant our wait to get to the cabins was about 45 minutes after a long drive, which was less than ideal. But not sure what they can do about that.

+We loved this place! They had everything you need. It is remote Alaska - be prepared for outhouses and outdoor showers. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable.
