Cabin · Sleeps 2 · 1 bedroom · 1 bed · 1 toilet

Enjoy watching moose strolling around the yard and possibly even sleeping right outside your window! Here in the Knik River valley the skies are very dark during the times of the year when the midnight sun goes away, which means that not only do the northern lights can come to you when they put on a show, but the stars are absolutely amazing as well to gaze at! The experience here is so unique that it’s become a place for locals to come get away! The 280 sq ft open floor plan cabin is set up nicely for a comfortable stay for up to two people. Think of it as super glamping! The fully stocked kitchen includes a stove, full size refrigerator, toaster, blender and the all basics you need to prepare your favorite meals. Need a coffee or other hot beverage fix? We have you covered with the choice of a drip pot, Kureg or French press with an assortment of coffee and tea featuring locally sourced samples. The living area has a couch with entertainment provided via a TV with a selection of several streaming services as well as an Alexa speaker for those soothing tunes. A wood stove with supplied firewood keeps you toasty through those chilly Alaska nights. Blackout blinds are installed on the windows for those not so dark summer Alaskan nights. The private bathroom features a tub/shower combo. Wifi is provided. Bear spray and bug spray are also supplied for you to borrow to help keep some of the more aggressive residents at bay. The cabin is conveniently located just minutes from the two popular Knik Glacier tour services and Pioneer Ridge Trailhead and within 30 minutes of numerous other adventures. Trail access for fat tire biking to the glacier in the winter is less than half a mile away. After a day of adventures, you can quickly be relaxing back at the Glacier Breeze after a day of making lifelong memories.

Glacier Breeze Cabin

Sending a big THANK YOU to Chris, Karen and the Glacier Breeze cabin! I stumbled upon this listing by chance and booked without hesitation. When I pitched an Alaskan honeymoon to my fiancé later that day, I was relieved that he was on board. The Glacier Breeze cabin was easy to find, impeccably clean and very homey. Chris and Karen are five star hosts! They think of everything, so you don't have to. From customized weather reports, to local events, wildlife updates and northern lights forecasts, they leave no stone unturned. We will be back!
