"The winds of fate brought us here. We were supposed to be here, it was perfect. Your energy permeates the place. Wooded seclusion, relaxation, beauty and love. Fresh ground coffee, candles and a bath. We will always remember this day and wish you the best for the future."
"Finally we are at home, we are at peace."

Dear Gail & John,
From the first email we connected, now.... one year
later, I don't feel like a B&B guest, but it's like
we're writing old friends. Thanks for making your home
our home for the past days, we've enjoyed every minute
of your hospitality.
All the best to you.

There is an idiom in Hebrew that can be translated as
follows:
A pretty women, nice ousehold and a beautiful house,
enlarge a persons mind. We have them all in your B&B
with the excellent addition of John. Now are minds are really large!!
Thank you for your wonderful hospitality, your easy
going, friendly atmosphere, your kindness and warmth,
and being so tuned into everything we just thought of.
We'll come again,
Nurit and Mati Raviv

We came to Alaska for the first time for our honeymoon. Even though we did not know anyone here we were able to relax and enjoy our time thanks to Gail’s warm hospitality.
The system of renting a whole house to ourselves was fantastic since my husband does not speak English. We had a wonderful time drinking beer while bathing in the bathtub in the garden, chilling out in the huge living room, and cooking in the big clean kitchen.
The Alaskan dogs Zach and Tundra were very clever, quiet and cute. As opposed to staying at a hotel, we were able to get a feel of how the people of Alaska live and so we definitely recommend this B&B!
Gail, thank you so much. Next time we come we will be looking forward to going fishing with John who was away this time.
