Summary: Our stay was wonderful! The cottage was a perfect choice for the six of us. We had 3 adults and 3 children 15, 12 and 8. Stephen the caretaker was very informative and helpful and was just a short walk away if we needed him. We went on the tour of the mine and enjoyed the many trails. Kathy had everything we could possibly need at the cottage. We enjoyed the history of the cottage as well as the DVD about the mine. The cottage has so much history and loved how so much has been preserved. It felt like we stepped back in time. The only thing we wished for was that we had stayed longer! We definitely would recommend staying at the cottage. Just remember to bring good hiking shoes! We walked over 30,000 steps in one day exploring and enjoyed a shuttle ride to McCarthy.

Summary: This is a beautiful cabin on the hill in Kennicott. It has two bedrooms upstairs and you can ask for cots. There is running water and a flush toilet. The cabin is close to the start of many trails.

Summary: Fully furnished historical cottage allows you to enjoy the best of Kennicott. Located in the middle of the mill, close to all the trailheads. Beautiful view, quiet neighborhood. Wonderful stay to explore Wrangell St Elias by air and by foot. Great hospitality by hosts.

We were suprised by how good the internet was and we were even able to stream the Olympics! Perfect location and fantastic tours with Kennicott Wilderness Guides. We appreciate the warm hospitality. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Summary: So happy we were able to arrange our stay here. Kathy was so easy to work with making our trip possible. Onsite Steve was completely helpful and knew all there was to know about the cottage and the area. Cottage itself was well maintained and comfortable even with six adults. Screen porch came in handy when the bugs were looking to bite. Cottage was well supplied and the kitchen has plenty of items that had been missed on our shopping list. Cottage was a oasis at the end of our long hiking days. I couldn't be more pleased with this rental and would gladly stay here again. Thanks Kathy!
