🌿 Welcome to Playful Arts Camp: Tiny House Sanctuary! Nestled on just over an acre of wild land on the edge of Anchorage in the Chugach Mountains, this peaceful retreat offers a blend of wilderness and creativity. The property is within walking distance—or a short drive—from the Chugach National Forest, part of the second-largest national forest in the United States, known for its breathtaking shorelines, glaciers, forests, and rivers. Your adventure begins down a narrow, winding driveway best suited for vans or Class B RVs under 20 feet. You’ll park near a cozy tiny house surrounded by natural beauty and the sounds of Alaska’s wildlife. There are no hookups or showers. An outhouse is available for campers, and a small stream runs most of the summer. You may also have access to a hand-pump well, though the water has a high iron content. Depending on your arrival time, you’ll have a couple of parking options. The easiest is to pull just past the tiny house and park near the garden area. Multi-day stays are welcome. Your host spent 20 years working as a river and wilderness guide, leading guests through some of Alaska’s most remote and beautiful places. When available, he enjoys sharing stories, music, and local travel tips on the porch. Today, he teaches music—guitar, banjo, mandolin, and ukulele—and offers Feldenkrais classes and sessions at his Anchorage studio, Playful Arts. This work is rooted in a vision of healing, wellness, and human connection. RV parking and camping are offered as a way to meet travelers on their Alaskan journeys and to share this special piece of wild land with kindred spirits.

Sleepy Bear cabin was built as a retreat for my father here in Alaska. Our 1st year listed on Hipcamp our cabin came in second in best places to stay in Alaska with Hipcamp. The last 2 years we were still mentioned in the top 10 with some pretty stiff competition. Eagle River South Fork trail with stunning views of Eagle and Symphony lakes is a short bike ride away. Breathtaking Barbara Falls is in our valley 10mins away. You hike up to the falls and feels its breath. Our Mountain views at 2000' elevation in the alpine forest with the 7000' snow covered peaks at the back of the valley will awe you. Morning coffee on your private deck alone is worth the trip. We know you will love our little mountain get away. I came to Alaska in the 90's with the Coast Guard. It was always my dream to come back. Alaska has a hold on you no other place possesses. Since our move back almost 6 years ago, our family has blossomed. We love living here and want to share our love of Alaska with others.
