We enjoyed our stay. The setting, which is on a working dog kennel, is unique. We aren’t a dog family ourselves, but we loved watching the dogs and the activities around the kennel, which were peaceful and lovely. Reading about the Iditarod and the owner’s experience racing in it was fascinating. We were thrilled that the hosts left us a generous spread of breakfast foods, and we made good use of them. The house used to run as a B&B and it’s spacious, with each room having its own theme and attached bathroom. Finally, this is probably not a surprise, but if you stay in a town called “Big Lake” in Alaska in summertime, you will encounter mosquitos. Bug spray was provided at the house. We enjoyed a terrific dinner nearby at Susitna Brewing Co.
