Welcome to the Fiddle Creek Cabin near Hatcher Pass, Alaska

The Fiddle Creek Cabin offers all the amenities of home, only a short distance from some of the most popular recreation areas in Alaska!

Walk, ski, or bike from your cozy cabin door to the newly developed Government Peak trail system. Hike to the fireweed fields and waterfall or all the way to the summit on well-marked trails.

A 5-minute drive will take you to the Hatcher Pass public recreation area famous for a variety of activities: The fresh white snow is great for cross country and down hill skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, and snow-shoeing. Our 19.5 hours of daylight during the summer months provide opportunity for berry picking, fishing, bird watching, paragliding, sightseeing, golfing, or gold-panning! The Independence Mine State Historical Park is a must-see for visitors intrigued by Alaska's gold mining past.

After adventuring, return to your comfortable "base camp" in its quiet neighborhood at the foot of the mountain. Whether you like to heat up easy snacks or prepare seven-course meals, you can do it in the Fiddle Creek Cabins' modern kitchen. Outside, there's a BBQ grill and a fire pit with a breath-taking view of nearby mountains. Or you can relax inside with Netflix on the flat screen TV and Wi-Fi for all your devices. Enjoy hot showers and fresh clean towels and bedding to complete your rest!

Whether you are an avid outdoorsman or just traveling through the Palmer-Wasilla area looking for an overnight in our beautiful woods, The Fiddle Creek Cabin is for you. Just 10 miles from down-town Palmer or 20 miles from Wasilla, the cabin is available for one or more nights' stay.

THE ALASKAN MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING AND YOU MUST GO.
SEE YOU SOON!

Awesome Cabin near ski trails and mountain hiking

We stayed two nights at Dave and Heathers cabin. It was very comfortable and quiet. Everything in the cabin was beautifully decorated and clean. And the view from the cabin was amazing! The location was perfect for exploring Hatcher Pass.

Great stay in a beautiful place!

We loved the thoughtful touches and comfortable atmosphere of this lovely cabin. It was great to grill, enjoy coffee on the porch and have everything we needed to fix a meal and relax after a nearby hike. The mountain view is outstanding! Heather & David are gracious and friendly hosts and I would certainly recommend a stay at Fiddle Creek Cabin.
