Best. Hosts. Ever.
This was the best home that we've ever stayed at! We loved everything about it! Not only was the home perfect but the hosts were also the best. Dawn went above and beyond in providing lots of info and answering any questions that we had about the area. She also provided lots of info about activities that we were interested in as well. We've never had an experience with such thorough hosts. The little details that they put into making this stay wonderful didn't go unnoticed and was very much appreciated. The lake fronting the home is breathtaking! We also loved the screened in porch where we could be "outside" but still safe from mosquitoes. Loved the gas fireplace also...instant fire and warmth! The view from in the home was also beautiful. While part of our family went out to fish, the rest of us didn't feel like we were wasting any time while we relaxed back at the home and took in the beautiful views. The little details that Mark and Dawn put into our stay made it so special...a beautiful welcome basket, a selection of coffee, teas, and hot chocolate, scones that were freshly baked when we checked out, beautiful fresh flowers for us to enjoy, pans to go gold panning at the creek nearby, a great selection of books to choose to read next to the fireplace, cozy warm throw blankets that we could use on cold days, even a selection of different pillows for for everyone's different preferences! This place was perfect! Would recommend and stay here again in a heartbeat!

Amazing house with beautiful views
Dawn and Mark are absolutely amazing! They are such nice hosts. The house itself is very nice, a lot of detailed designs. The house is also super clean, all the towels, bed sheets are more clean than any hotels. The only thing that needs to be noted is there is no Wi-Fi and the phone signal is very bad. We actually enjoyed it however, for some people it might be a downside. Overall, highly recommended.

Kenai Lake heaven
This property is so amazing. We showed up early evening and there were accent lights on throughout the home, so welcoming. A gift basket with snacks/wine. The homes pics dont do it justice, very clean, everything including windows were spotless inside and out which was amazing as the view to the lake was breath taking. And need to also mention how wonderful the mattress/pillows/towels were. Mark and Dawn definitely know how to pamper people. Hope to someday make it back as we would not consider staying anywhere else. Lovely folks, and the going away scones....to die for!!

We stayed at Edelweiss house 4 days/3 nights and wish we could have stayed twice as long. The lake views and forest are like a postcard. The house was warm, inviting and the hosts had many special touches to make our stay absolutely perfect. This is a treasure!

Lakefront Beauty near Seward
The cabin home is beautiful inside and out. Super clean and well maintained in every way. A great place to stay in a great location. From the cabin you see no neighbors and nothing but beauty. Quality quality quality -from towels to furnishings to include all your kitchen needs. The hosts, Mark and Dawn, provided a nicely stocked welcome basket, a great selection of coffees, and half n half! Really nice and thoughtful. Thank you! Mark and Dawn came over and introduced themselves and we had a nice conversation, that included the topic of a young brown bear that visited earlier in the day. If we were to ask for anything more - it would be that they add wifi capabilities. With a college student doing summer classes online and our business dealings -we missed the ease of timely and efficient communication. Resurrection Coffee House in Seward filled the need and was a nice hangout. Yes we want it all! Remote beauty and wifi 😆 oh well. We had a great stay and we would definitely look forward to another stay.

Truly Extraordinary
It is hard to summarize the absolute charm of this amazing hidden oasis. The pictures are beautiful but the experience is even better. You will love the fairytale-like views of the back yard as you make your way through moss and driftwood to the lakeshore which is surrounded by stunning mountains. Even more amazing than the property itself are the owners. Mark and Dawn went out of their way to make our Alaskan experience everything we hoped for. Prior to our stay, they provided us with details about what to expect regarding travel, weather, hiking conditions, etc. They left us personalized notes and treats, and even continued to provide excellent suggestions and knowledge about our next destination, even after we had already left. I cannot recommend this experience enough. It truly added to the entire first time Alaskan experience for us.
