Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Big Lake

This house was stunning— inside and out. What a great view for Alaska! The space had a modern aesthetic—clean lines, comfortable furniture, and thoughtful touches throughout. The bed was super comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed (plus a few extras). Check-in was smooth, and the host was friendly and responsive. If you're looking for a place with an incredible view, clean and modern vibes, and a peaceful atmosphere, this is it. I’d absolutely stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The lake provided a lot of entertainment for us when we were just hanging out at the house. We used the 2 kayaks and canoe quite a bit to fish or just paddle around the lake. The swans were out a few times too. We also enjoyed making s’mores in the really nice fire pit (bring your own s’mores ingredients & firewood). The kitchen was well stocked for cooking with lots of appliances provided. Beds were very comfy! 2 bedrooms had an amazing view of the lake (master and one queen), while the other 2 rooms had televisions. The master bathroom was very spacious and had dual shower heads. Make sure to follow the directions Daniel provides when checking in because Google Maps does not have an accurate location for the house, but we found out that Apple Maps worked great. Location was good, only 10 minutes from stores and restaurants, but felt very secluded and peaceful. Would absolutely stay here again if we ever find ourselves back in Alaska!

A beautiful place! Kristen and family were kind and helpful in a sticky situation! The perfect distance from Anchorage! Highly recommend staying at Kristen’s!

Would 100% recommend this place. Clean, easy access, and quiet setting. We’ll go back if we are in the area again. Craig was a great host and responded quickly anytime we needed anything.

Nelia was responsive, friendly and helpful. Nice that she provided some basic pantry items gradients.

The place is incredible and beautiful, the cabin is perfect and very clean, perfect for going with children!

Krista and Carl were great hosts. The home was clean and perfect to be able to sleep at night with 2 kids. They even went above and beyond and lent us some fishing gear so my 3.5 year old could fish at Matanuska lake. He even caught his first fish. Dogs on the property are super friendly. She and Carl are very responsive with any questions or requests. I would definitely stay again.

I loved the cabin! Although a little snag happened and the main place was double booked, we got put in a cabin that I think I enjoyed more! Billie Jo is super helpful and offered great suggestions for local things to do. The pup Marcus was a wonderful joy visiting us during our fire and while sitting on the porch. We had everything we needed and an awesome view to end our evening. I would recommend any of Billie Jo’s cabins to someone looking to be close to town but also have a relaxing getaway.

Lovely stay! John was very pleasant and communicative. The property is great, very clean and relaxing. Would definitely stay here again!

Nicholas’s place was a great place to stay while in the area for work.

The place was easy to find, really beautifully decorated. Yana was really responsive when we had a concern brought to her. It got resolved very quickly. There were only 3 towels and 5 of us staying, but we made it work. The beds were comfy and so were the pillows. The laundry room had lots of laundry soap and that was super nice and convenient. Other than the neighborhood being a little run down, it was a really great place to stay.

The place is great!

No complaints. I loved that the kitchen was very well stocked and there were plenty of useful condiments. Having the extra toiletries was very nice. Great location between Anchorage and Wasilla. Both Jeff and his wife were friendly and so very nice to meet.

Great host, power outage unfortunately happened during my stay. But I was so comfortable in the living room I had not noticed until she contacted me, very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

We had a comfortable stay at Kesh's. The neighbor hood is safe and quiet, a block off of 15th, which is a convenient east -west route across town. The location is a short drive to all three hospitals. Not much traffic noise, some noise from small planes departing the nearby airport but very little of that at night. The house is a quaint older home with many thoughtful amenities.

This comfortable apartment gave us a home away from home on our first trip to Alaska. It was cozy and well equipped with a warm fireplace, coffee pot, large shower and comfortable bed. Jane provided shampoo and body wash as well as some coffee and tea bags. The garden was lovely with blooming flowers and trees. I would recommend this place to future travelers to Anchorage. While it was convenient and walkable to downtown, it allowed us to feel private and secluded with it's hidden garden.

This cabin is so cozy and perfect for a getaway. I absolutely love everything about it. It makes you feel right at home in the country. Thank you Robin for sharing this awesome place with us. We will definitely be back again.

Took a boys trip with 3 friends and I selected Susanna’s home as our second choice as our first choice had raised the price of rental. This was easily the best decision we made. Susanna’s home in Wasilla was a prime location for our boys trip as we were able to adventure in any direction and enjoy amazing sights without having to drive an extra hour if you’re staying in downtown Anchorage. I was impressed with all of the amenities offered by Susannas home. The kitchen was very spacious and was stocked with every seasoning we could need. It often became our central gathering area of the house. Another treat to be able to view the Aurora Borealis from the comfort of the outside deck. Huddling around the fire pit was also very calming during these snowy nights. Overall, I would say this home is excellent place for you and your family (or friends) to stay if you want to enjoy the natural beauty of Lower Alaska without having to drive too far. Thank you Susanna for your hospitality!

Great Place to getaway! Highly recommend and would love to return.

Our family was quite comfortable in the cabin. Bathroom with excellent shower head, amount of hot water, and pressure. Kitchen had everything we needed for simple breakfasts and lunches. Location was one mile from our son's home, so perfect. Hosts were responsive to our needs and offered clean towels halfway thru our stay. Despite cooler weather, furnace was adequate. Being close to our family was the best quality of this cabin. When we left our glucose monitor after our stay, the hosts notified us and arranged for its pick up. We were so grateful

Nice cabin with all the amenities needed for a great stay.

This is...bar none...the #1 place to stay when in the greater Big Lake/Wasilla area - even if you're in Anchorage. A picture perfect location...impeccably clean and comfortable space with killer views and all the comforts of home and a host that is responsive and 100% committed to your 1st class stay. Book at Fishcreek - you cannot go wrong.

We had a great stay at this cute and cozy cabin! It was very clean, and the communication from the hosts was excellent throughout. One tip for future guests: definitely read the directions provided by the hosts carefully, as we did get lost a couple of times trying to find the place. Once we arrived, everything was smooth and enjoyable. Thank you for hosting us!

Easily the top place I’ve ever stayed at. Perfect place to stop if you’re traveling through, or to get out of the city. The sweetest people own this place and went above and beyond to help us feel comfortable and even helped us with car troubles. Can’t recommend this place enough. Felt like home!
