Private Wooded Acres at Fort Alaska - Sleeps 10 comfortably expandable to18 | Cabin in Big Lake
3 Bedroom Cabin in Big Lake
The property was originally built as the "Big Lake Fish Hatchery".
Today some of the historic hatchery still remains but the property has been upgraded to include comfortable natural gas central heating to keep you warm year round and designed to be business traveler friendly with independent Wifi.
The Fort has its own Beaver/Moose Hiking trail.
This trail leads to the "Beavers' playground" and splits off to "Moose Club", a perfect gathering point of moose on Alaska State Lands. Come for a quiet stroll and listen to nature for once.
With close access to the Big Lake recreation area, the property offers a quiet wooded escape with a wrap around deck overlooking Meadows Creek, one of Alaska's anadromous salmon bearing streams.
Being on Meadows Creek, "Fort Alaska" is a natural home to moose, river otter, trout, and salmon. Fish and kayak Meadows Creek within 100 feet of the unit. Situated on a private 9 acre parcel bordered by state owned 400 acre undeveloped forest.
Now known as "Fort Alaska", the property offers the wild feel of Alaska yet is in close proximity to Big Lake and Wasilla. The paved road offers year-round access to Alaskan adventure but being a private 9 acre compound you have your own space to enjoy. Our quote includes a fee for kayaks, bikes and a small freezer for the storage of your fish.
With modern comforts and upgrades completed this single unit can be expanded and opened up to be a large double unit. To reserve this as a duplex unit to sleep up to 18 people please send an inquiry. Fort Alaska provides a nice location to relax and call your outpost to adventure. In Summer of 2024 the second unit can be rented to allow larger parties to stay together, however, it is NEVER rented to separate parties at the same time. We are currently working on our fitness center and Fort Alaska gym will be available to add into your stay. We will be posting pictures as soon as it is completed.
