As a peaceful escape retreat, Aurora Lights Cabins salmon-themed studio cabin is on 40 acres with a magnificent view of the Chugach mountains. Enjoy nearby trails for snowshoeing, dog sledding, snow machining, cross-country skiing, or fat-tire bike riding. Less than 2 miles to Big Lake South Recreation Site to access Big Lake to boat or jet ski or Fish Creek access to kayak or swim. Far enough away to be able to view the Northern Lights. Aurora Lights Cabins are an amazing Alaskan experience!

The space
Our Salmon cabin offers either (2) twin beds OR one King-sized bed (please indicate which you want), clean, 400 sq ft cabin, black-out curtains, and unique Alaska decor.

For travelers who plan to drive Fairbanks - Homer, we are a great half-way stop. The parking area accommodates all your toys, and trailers so you can bring your 4-wheelers or snow machines to go out on the trails or your boat for some boating or fishing on Big Lake.

We are located 2.6 miles to Three Bears Grocery, gas, or Shell convenience store and 2.9 miles to Floaters Pub (karaoke, live bands, food) . Floaters also has a family restaurant. Enjoy a meal at Susitna Brewing (1.5 miles), or Big Lake Family Restaurant (2.8 miles). There are 2 coffee stands and 2 gas stations/convenience stores nearby with good made-to-order pizza at the Shell convenience store.

Put your boat or jet ski in at Big Lake South Recreation Site which is 1.7 miles away. Put your kayak in at Fish Creek park 1.7 miles away. Tourists enjoy Martin Buser's Happy Trails Kennel, Alaska Dogstead Mushing, Big Lake Boat Rentals, and Wakesurf Alaska for some summer fun time on the lake. For bragging rights in the winter, take a drive out onto the lake but stick to the plowed roads and follow the lake street signs.

We are 152 miles to Denali Park village, 54 miles to Talkeetna, and 25 miles to Hatcher Pass. We are 61 miles to Anchorage, 97 miles to Girdwood, 185 miles to Seward, and 281 miles to Homer.

George and Terriann left the U.S. East Coast over 25 years ago with 7 kids to run sled dogs and build a life in Alaska. While no longer running dogs, they still enjoy the Alaska scenery while hosting families and couples, taking care of their grandchildren, and kayaking when ever they can.
