A beautiful view

The chalet was very nice, clean and had everything that we needed. The view is priceless and the swans, loons and other species of birds were delightful. The American bald eagle was awesome! We enjoyed the game room activities and the games in the chalet.

Amazing Alaska Vacation

We had the most amazing time at the Alaska Lodge. Jonathan was so wonderful — kind and helpful and very welcoming. The lodge could not be any more beautiful, and it is centrally located to fishing, glacier hikes, Denali, and all of the fun activities in the area. We plan to go back as soon as we can!

Stunning location!

My Wife and I chose to stay here to celebrate her 40th birthday with four of our friends. It’s was absolutely perfect! Jonathan is an outstanding property owner who went way above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. In fact he even offered to stage the cabin with flowers for my wife! The property is gorgeous and so serene... I would absolutely recommend to friends and family who are looking for a quiet place to get away and enjoy the wilderness.

Beautiful quiet retreat

Beautiful property on big lake with stunning Mt views. Swans with 7 cygnets and loons calling on the tranquil lake this morning. Also lots of fish jumping in evening and morning. Would have loved to kayak but ran out of time. New owner Greg gives great customer service and communication. The VRBO website was messed up tho and did not get good customer service from their phone staff in Africa.

Wonderful. I like how Kierra is onsite to ask questions and help when needed. Great hosts, view and things to do cornhole, hot tub, kayak, small boat, ping pong, darts, internet. A lot of adventures in the area. Some mosquito's but not bad bring spray or lotion.

Winter wonderland

We had the most amazing time at the lodge! The kids loved sledding and the adults couldn’t get enough of the hot tub while taking in the snowy white gorgeous views! The running joke was “what has Bob Ross painted for us today?” The views were breathtaking and Johnathan couldn’t have been more accommodating!

The chalet is absolutely beautiful!! Do visit here

We had a wonderful stay here! The chalet is very beautiful and very cozy. Johnathan was super responsive and extremely kind to help us with some of our requests. We came during march and Johnathan was so generous to plough the driveway multiple times so that its safe for us to drive. He provided us with wonderful recommendations for places to visit. Overall, it was a great experience and I highly recommend this place.

Absolutely Amazing!

We planned to spend 1 night in the Palmer area but after finding this cabin we ended up booking it for 3 nights…we just hoped it lived up to the pictures and descriptions. The cabin ended up exceeding our high expectations! Beautiful cabin, fun amenities, away from everything (but not too far away), outstanding views, clean, friendly hosts…definitely the highlight of our trip! Our family loved it. Thank you!!!

Perfect place for our family vacation.

The property is beautiful and well maintained. Beds are comfy, kitchen is well stocked. And the view! I loved hearing the loons in the morning and watching the swans swim around. Jonathan is a great host. He made our stay very comfortable.

What an amazing view from the cabin. Mountains and lake with swans and loons and trout jumping. Cabin was cute and comfy with 3 bedrooms. Hot tub felt wonderful after a long day at Hatchers Pass. Jonathan was so great to work with. We would love to visit again someday!

beautiful spot

Beautiful spot. Lovely quiet lake. I would have appreciated some chairs to sit on the beautiful balcony there was one small swing. It was very hot in the upstairs bedroom and no way to open windows for a breeze the box fan was not enough. The road to the property is very rough to get to the property. Beautiful views however, peaceful.

Amazing place!

This piece of property is a slice of heaven on earth! It is beyond beautiful, and Johnathan was the most gracious, helpful host who genuinely wanted to share his love for this amazing spot. The views from the house were unparalleled, and we couldn't get enough of the lake--access to the boats and fishing gear was a huge perk, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We could have spent much longer here and never gotten tired of it!

Palmer's best kept secret

The property was amazing and the hosts were delightful. We were comfortable and enjoyed every aspect of the cabin and were able to use the boat with the trolling motor, the kayak, and the canoe! A moose ambled through twice while we were staying and many waterfowl including eagles. We will definitely be back!

Simply amazing

This property is truly something special. We enjoyed every single detail from the location to the view to the cozy cabin. Johnathan is the best host I have ever worked with for a vacation. From start to finish he was responsive and helpful and offered amazing suggestions for our stay. I would go back over and over again if given the opportunity. This property is a little slice of heaven - or at least I hope this is what heaven looks like!

About the host

Hosted by Greg McPherson

Why they chose this property

Most of the people in town have no idea Wolverine Lake exists. We are at the end of a 9 mile road that is not heavily traveled. Even if you did go all the way out the road, the lake can't be seen from the roadway. The public access has never been developed so this is a hidden lake with virtually no use.

What makes this property unique

This is a unique property even for Alaska. You will understand the second you get to the bottom of the driveway and see the lake, mountains and seclusion.
