Upstairs, enjoy a cozy king bed, a pocket twin, a table for four, and a guest Mac with fast Wi-Fi—plus an elevated viewing space that’s ideal for catching the Northern Lights. Downstairs, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, a hot shower, and year-round climate control that makes settling in easy. Step outside onto an expansive deck, knowing the most affordable dog sled tours and mushing experiences are right here on site. You’re not just close to the adventure—you’re already home.

Check out our website (alaskadogcenter.com/tours) and book family and senior friendly dog sled tours.

About the deck: it’s so large—24 by 76 feet—that we call it the SuperDeck. Outfitted with four outdoor seating chairs, a Solo Stove, and plenty of firewood, it’s built for long Alaskan nights. This is the perfect place to watch dog teams go by, take in endless sunsets, look for the Northern Lights, or simply unwind by the fire after a full day of adventure.

Trailside Alaska is also known as “M73 Airbnb”, a name carried over from our original launch in 2020. With easy highway access, private parking for cars and trailers, and a central location near Hatcher Pass, the Nancy Lakes Recreation Area, and Little Susitna Landing, it’s an ideal basecamp for exploring some of the best outdoor recreation Alaska has to offer.

Enjoy the convenience during the summer months of our famous Trailside Cafe @ Mile 73. Order fresh meals, coffee drinks, smoothies, and desserts. The Trailside Vacation Rental is known for its unique location on sled dog training trails in the dog mushing capital of the world. Book your stay today and experience Alaska like never before!

Nice little cabin that was very clean and warm when we arrived. Fully stocked with anything you would need. The king size bed was very comfortable.There is a Coffee shop next door with yummy shakes, drinks, food options and dog treats too! Located just off the highway but also felt secluded and safe. The owners are very nice and accommodating and we really enjoyed our stay. This will be our first pick when returning to Alaska! Thank you Kale and Carrie!

The property is an entire 1-bedroom house - full kitchen, large bedroom with a heavenly king bed plus a built-in bunk bed. We were invited to use the washer, which helped a lot. Sat out on the deck to relax. There’s a cafe on property with fantastic meals -very reasonably priced and so good that we ended up eating breakfast, lunch and dinner there over the 2 days. Hint; the scones and pulled pork sliders were delish and the triple chocolate cheesecake took care of my sweet tooth for days. We chose this property for the closeness to the guided fishing trip hubby had booked and it ended up being one of the best spots on our vacation.

Communication with host was awesome, check in was super easy, and stay was great! Cozy cabin lower level, with a really nice large bedroom upstairs. Large patio for hanging out, and the sounds of howling sled dogs in the morning really accents the Alaskan outdoors.

Gem in the heart of Willow

Perfect spot for single individual, couple or small family. Full kitchen had all the basics needed, fantastic location, the cafe next door open 8am-8pm was HUGE, food/service exceeded expectations and the dogs were a pleasant surprise. Kale is the ultimate host and made me + my 9yo feel at home from the movement we arrived all thru check out. We will be back again!
