Welcome to The Cozy Cub Cabin & Soakin’ Salmon Spa

A one-of-a-kind Alaskan retreat in beautiful Big Lake, Alaska — where rustic comfort meets spa-like luxury. Hand-built by us (with the help of our neighbor Dave!) and designed with care, this getaway offers a private, relaxing experience unlike anywhere else.

Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, a family vacation, or a quiet escape surrounded by Alaska’s charm, the Cozy Cub Cabin & Soakin’ Salmon Spa promise warmth, comfort, and a stay that feels truly memorable.

* About the Property

Located just one mile from the Northshore entrance to Big Lake, this retreat includes two thoughtfully crafted spaces on one private property:

* The Cozy Cub Cabin

A warm, black-bear-themed getaway designed for comfort and connection. Inside, you’ll find beautiful wood finishes, cozy textures, and thoughtful details that make you feel instantly at home.

Features include:

Heated floors throughout for cozy comfort on chilly days.

Fully equipped kitchen with cookware, dishes, utensils, and appliances.

Walk-in shower and plush towels in a spotless, modern bathroom.

Laundry center for guest use — perfect for extended stays.

Comfortable living area with inviting décor and soft lighting.

Dining space ideal for meals, games, or planning your next adventure.

Every corner of the cabin reflects Alaska’s wild beauty, with small black-bear touches, local artwork, and warm tones that make it feel like a home away from home.

* The Soakin’ Salmon Spa House

A short stroll from the cabin sits your private spa escape — a playful, fishing-inspired retreat built for relaxation. The Soakin’ Salmon Spa House is decorated with hints of Alaskan fishing culture and “dock life” charm, offering guests the perfect place to unwind after a day on the lake or trails.

Features include:

Private hot tub — ideal for soaking after a day of exploring.

Cedar-lined sauna for a true spa experience.

Fishing- and salmon-inspired décor that makes the space uniquely Alaskan.

Plenty of space to relax before or after your soak.

The hot tub and sauna are available daily from 8:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. to ensure peaceful evenings and proper maintenance time.

Please note: The sauna heater is electric — do not pour water on the sauna rocks, as this can damage the unit and pose a safety hazard.

* Location & Neighborhood

You’ll find the property in a peaceful Big Lake neighborhood about one mile from Northshore Road, offering easy access to Big Lake itself — a favorite spot for fishing, boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding in the summer, and snowmachining, ice fishing, and northern lights viewing in the winter.

While the property feels quiet and private, you’re still close to essentials:

Local grocery store and gas station (about 2 miles away)

A few restaurants and coffee spots nearby

Wasilla is roughly 20 minutes away for additional shopping and dining

The cabin is visible from the main road, but access is via a small loop through the neighborhood — just follow the simple turn-by-turn directions we provide for easy arrival.

* Seasonal Highlights

Summer: Long sunny days, perfect for fishing, kayaking, hiking, or exploring Big Lake’s trails.
Fall: Vibrant colors and crisp air — ideal for cozy cabin evenings.
Winter: Snowmachining, ice fishing, and hot tubbing under the northern lights.
Spring: Quiet and peaceful, a perfect time for reflection and relaxation.

No matter the season, Big Lake offers endless opportunities for outdoor fun — and the cabin’s cozy interiors and spa house make it just as enjoyable to stay in as to explore out.

The Cozy Cub Cabin comfortably accommodates small groups or couples seeking space and comfort.

Main sleeping area: Plush queen bed with cozy linens and bear-themed décor.
