Up the Glenn Highway with room in the back for the coolers, the rods and the luggage. The lake house is the first stop, and the big country is a day out and back.

Stay on Lake Lucille
Under an hour from Anchorage, the whole house is yours, with its own dock on the water and the boat tied to it.
Alpine valleys in the Talkeetna Mountains and the old gold-mine buildings at Independence Mine State Historical Park. The road over the summit is usually open from July to mid-September.
We live here and have been handing our keys to visitors for twelve years. The idea has not changed: treat people the way we would want to be treated after a long flight north.
Ask us where the moose are, which road is worth the detour, or where to find breakfast at six in the morning.
We answer ourselvesYou hear back from the family, not a call center.
We know the roadsStraight advice on conditions, weather and where to go.
We work around your flightPickup and check-in fit your arrival, not the other way round.
Before you book
Anything not answered here, ask when you send your dates. You hear back from the family.
How do I book?
The house is booked on Airbnb and each vehicle on Turo, so payment and protection run through platforms you already know. If you want both, send your dates here first and we line the two bookings up for you.
Can you deliver to the airport?
Yes. Your vehicle can be waiting at Ted Stevens Anchorage International when you land. Send us your flight number and we work around it.
When can I rent a vehicle?
From about April 15 to November 1. The fleet comes off the road for the winter, so vehicles are not rented between early November and mid-April.
Can I book the house and a vehicle together?
That is what we are set up for. Tell us your dates and how many people are coming, and we match a vehicle to the house and quote the two together.
What is check-in like at the house?
Self check-in, with the details sent before you arrive, so a late flight is not a problem.
Inquire about a trip
A vehicle, the lake house, or both. We reply with what is available and one quote for the whole trip.
