A Cabin by the Pond

Ok, we stumbled upon this place and it is GREAT! Really! The entire setting is welcoming and cozy and beautifully cared for. Each cabin is so nicely set up, clean, comfortable, and equipped. I could live here and be damn happy! The pond is a giant asset. Sit by it, read by it, nap by it. I wish I could come back here soon and often, but I live a long, long way away.

I found this place through some amazing Instagram shots and knew that if I ever made it to the Peninsula, I had to stay here. I got a hold of the owner, Courtney, who made the reservation process so easy and booked my family and another family coming down with us in the Chapel Cabin. Not knowing what to expect, we packed the car with toiletries, camping chairs, bed stuff. Turns out, we didn't need it because the cabin came stocked with it all. There is an amazing little "social circle" around a fire pit and propane grill (utensils all included.) There is pre-chopped firewood that I was almost demanded to use as much as we wanted which was nice in the cooler evenings. The cabin itself has a fully stocked kitchen (but no dishwasher), a queen bed and two twin beds upstairs and a pull-out sofa and futon downstairs. I'm not much of an outdoorsman or camper but I could come back time and time again to ACBTP. The one thing that really stuck out to me was the service from Courtney and Eric. While we didn't run into them during our stay, their phone numbers are all over the complex and if anything is needed or if we had any questions, they welcome a call or text and were very quick to respond. From the beginning, I felt like I had known these guys my entire life, that's how nice they were. We're already trying to plan our next trip. I was on a mission to see Molly the Moose but it didn't happen. Hopefully next time she'll grace us with her presence. Highly recommend this location, whether its for a quick getaway from Anchorage life or if you're coming down to fish as the Kenai River is a hop, skip and jump away.
