Alaska Lakefront Bed and Breakfast
Bed and Breakfast in Wasilla, Alaska
Welcome to Alaska Lakefront B & B where I love to host you! My name is Susie, and I'll be your hostess during your stay. Whether you're on the way to Talkeetna, Denali, Seward, or visiting family, celebrating a special occasion, or seeking a get-a-way, you'll enjoy this large comfortable private rooms with stunning lakefront views. Wake up to the sound of loons, a cup of coffee, and being served a hot Alaskan breakfast. Canoe, trout fish (best spot anywhere!- fishing poles available), fly-in, swim, bring a boat, enjoy the fire pit, relax on deck, dock, or indoors.
Our neighborhood is quiet and has what people come to see: gorgeous views and some wildlife. Our wildlife is a variety of waterfowl, moose, muskrat, and more. Eagles, loons, grebes, terns, gulls, ducks, magpies, chickadees, woodpeckers, are the short list. We have friendly neighbors yet the property is very quiet and peaceful. You are very likely to see boaters, fisherman, and pilots operating their crafts. We are just far enough out to have wilderness, and yet there is a grocery store/warehouse, gas stations, post office, pizza place, and restaurants, just 7 minutes away.
The Space
You are important! I love to try to meet your needs, whatever they may be. I hope to maximize your Alaskan experience. Let me know what your needs are, and I will do everything I can to meet them. Also, let me know if you want excursion and dining suggestions. And if you want I can even tell you Alaskan stories.
Your room is upstairs. A quaint third upper-level visiting room is complete with mini-fridge, microwave, coffee pot, toaster, dishes, cutlery, games, and picnic table. The common areas are downstairs and include a half bath, living room, kitchen, and dining area. Outdoors there is a large deck, large dock, front yard, lawn, fire pit, BBQ, a beautiful garden, and of course, the lake! We will also have a canoe, life jackets, and fishing poles available.
If your food is greater than what can fit in your mini-fridge, I have plenty of extra space to store your foods that need to be kept cool. Let me know; I can accommodate you.
The Great Outdoors
Seymour Lake is considered the absolute best rainbow trout fishing lake in the area because it is known for its trophy-sized catches. They aren't easy... that's why they get so big and are so exciting to fish. Ask me questions and I can fill you in on details on how to try to catch one.
Especially in June, consider taking just a little time to take a very quick jaunt around the rock garden with its many native Alaskan perennials. Many were harvested from the tops of mountains... some from the Denali area. Also, consider making time to enjoy some time on the water. Many guests are disappointed they didn't stay longer to take time to enjoy themselves here.
The Breakfast
Breakfast includes my local wild fresh-picked berries from Hatcher's Pass, my yard, and throughout the valley. I often make the famous Alaska Sourdough Pancakes with a fifty-year-old starter from a real "sourdough" who lived off the land in Soldotna, Alaska. I try to use as many organic foods as possible, grind my grain, and use what I can from my small garden. Guests who are gluten-free, or have food allergies can usually be accommodated. I recycle and compost... I often leave a bowl on the counter for compost materials and a bin for recyclables.
