Where Bucket List Dreams Become Reality
Check AvailabilityThe View CBS Evening News Showed America
In summer 2025, when CBS Evening News needed Alaska’s most spectacular backdrop for their national broadcast during an international summit, they chose our deck. Millions of viewers witnessed these extraordinary Cook Inlet vistas and Chugach Mountain panoramas. Now, this bucket list view can be yours—not for a fleeting broadcast moment, but for your entire stay.
Northern Lights from Your Private Deck
Alaska’s aurora borealis dances across the sky from late August through April, with peak viewing between 10pm and 2am. From the comfort of your heated deck—or the warmth of the hot tub—witness one of nature’s most spectacular phenomena without leaving the property. The Villa’s location in Bootlegger’s Cove offers minimal light pollution and unobstructed northern sky views, creating optimal conditions for aurora viewing.

Guest Experiences
In Their Own Words
The ‘Alpha Unit’ took years of thoughtful consideration. Seven social spaces across three floors—from the fireside lounge to the sky-lit loft. Best-in-class appliances, a massive hot tub with that view, even an ergonomic standing desk. The kids loved waving at the Alaska Railroad train passing by.
