About this property

Conveniently Located -- Peaceful Chalet w/mountain views, firepit, gas BBQ

Centrally located in the town of Girdwood at the base of Max's mountain on a quiet, dead end road. Local grocery store, restaurants/bars and ski slope within one mile of chalet.

In this peaceful neighborhood, you will find the perfect base camp for your Alaskan adventure. The Hinterland Chalet is designed to provide you with a cozy stay in Girdwood with full kitchen and sleeping amenities. This timber frame chalet boasts beautiful redwood siding. Built by climbers in 1983, the recycled redwood came from Anchorage's original REI store.

On the main floor, the kitchen and living area are surrounded by windows. The kitchen and bath have just been remodeled with new floors and counter tops. The floors are radiant heated for toasty toes no matter what the temperature outside. The bedroom on the main floor has a full sized bed and closet. The loft hosts a queen sized log frame bed where the moon shines bright on clear nights. This is the master bedroom of the house with a full closet. Up the ladder you can escape to the tree room for reading, relaxing, or gazing out through the forest. Complimentary coffee is provided for your enjoyment.

The large deck with seating in front is perfect for relaxing after a hike, or, if you love a bonfire, warm up by the fire bowl. This 1,000 square foot chalet is well suited for families and friends in groups up to four people.

Lovely cabin

This is a great cabin in Girdwood. 1 bedroom downstairs and another loft room with an adorable sitting room on third floor. You felt like you were in the trees! Kathy the owner was wonderful to work with. She was available for every question we had. Our 9 year old daughter was in love with this cabin and the town! One of my favorite places I return to often! This cabin is a great place to make memories!

Perfect start to Alaska trip

The hostess communicated all aspects well ahead of our arrival. The cabin itself was far more than we expected. Perfect location to Alyeska, and to all points east. Our next trip will definitely be staying there again!

Wonderful cabin in Alaska

I booked this cabin for my parent's vacation in Alaska. They said it was wonderful and super cozy and comfortable. They also said they were right up in the tree tops and had an amazing view of a mountain right from the cabin!

Cozy and spacious accommodations in Girdwood

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely wooded cabin. Despite some rainy weather in Girdwood, this cabin with many large windows and a very cool treehouse felt like a cozy hideaway in the rainforest. We appreciated the laundry facilities and the well-furnished full kitchen. The location was also convenient to area restaurants.

Absolutely gorgeous property in a beautiful location

We would stay here again in a heartbeat and indeed are looking forward to staying for much longer the next time we do. The property has everything you could want or need. It’s situated among the trees with many windows such that you feel like you’re in a treehouse. We love the Alyeska/Girdwood area because there is good food close by and it’s a great launching point for so many wonderful adventures. Communication with host Cathy was super easy and she was so awesome to us I can’t even express how much we appreciate everything.

Beautiful location & cabin

We had a wonderful stay at Kathy’s place. Checkin was a breeze. We had a few rainy/ chilly evenings & the gas stove kept the place nice and toasty! We wish the weather had allowed for us to use the outdoor fire pit seating area. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Fish

Host profile image
We have lived in Alaska for 30 years and love this beautiful state. We feel fortunate to be raising our family here and look forward to the time we get to spend in Girdwood skiing, snowboarding, hiking and just enjoying the laid back, friendly atmosphere.

Why they chose this property

We chose this particular property due to its location. Located on a third of an acre on a quiet, dead end road, it is very peaceful. The cabin is surrounded by hemlocks and in the summer the hummingbirds and blueberries are plentiful. It is centrally located with several restaurants and the local grocery within walking distance. Whittier, Seward and Hope are easy day trips by car should guests want to explore places other than Girdwood.

What makes this property unique

St. Moritz sits at the base of Max's Mountain and ends shortly after our chalet. The neighbors are genuine and the blueberries sweet. When the sun shines, it warms the gravel roads and brings everyone out to visit and share stories. For the adventurous spirit, the back door leads to excellent powder skiing in winter and quiet hikes with bears, forest flowers and birds in summer. This is a quiet, serene place.
