Lakefront Log Home - dock, kayaks, paddle boards, fire pit | House in Willow
4 Bedroom House in Willow
Nestled in the beautiful birch trees on an acre of land and direct waterfront access to majestic Long Lake. Relax and enjoy lake life on your own private dock. Perfect as a home base for adventures between Anchorage and Denali National Park including Hatcher Pass and the town of Talketna. In the winter snow machining, winter biking, and cross country skiing on the groomed trail system is spectacular. Enjoy year round access to Alaska's great outdoors. Just 1-1/2 hours north of Anchorage.
This stunning 1800 sq. ft. two story rustic chic log home features a main living area with a gas fireplace adjacent to the fully equipped kitchen/dining area. The main floor also features 2 bedrooms; a loft with two standard beds; and a full bath. The downstairs is a large TV/game room with a wet bar; 1 bedroom with a queen bed, a full bath, and laundry room.
After a busy day of adventure and you return to your home base on the lake - relax, go for a kayak, paddle board, or paddle boat and explore the 1 1/2 mile long lake, including a visit to Loon Island where you may glimpse the loons nesting (from a distance, of course). There are two paddle boards; two adult and one child kayaks: and a paddle boat available for your stay. We also have a variety of fishing rods ready to go for fishing off the dock. We have lots of life jackets in the boat house for your use and just about every size possible. There is a gas fire pit near the dock for your use.
In the winter, Long Lake is at the heart of snow machine country. There are also plenty of great trails for cross country skiing and winter biking. Trail maps are in the welcome book. Access is directly out your front door and on to the lake where you will see a marked, groomed trail down the center of the lake which connects to the trail system. You can bring your own snow machines and leave right from the house with easy access on to the lake. Snowhook Adventures can arrange guided dog sled rides or snow machining as well for visitors. For the more adventurous, Alaska Snow Expeditions will deliver snow machines rentals to the house for you to explore the many trails at your leisure.
Lastly, the last great race, the Iditarod Dog Sled Race, starts at the Willow Community Center, just 2 miles away. In minutes, you can watch the mushers and their dogs race down Long Lake and pass right in front of the house. Like many locals, you can pack up drinks and food and head down to the middle of the lake and watch them right up close.
