Lovely cabin by flowing stream
This cabin was everything we could have hoped for. Beautiful setting, clean and well appointed modern cabin, and lots of homey touches. Paul & Ginny were gracious hosts. We would love to come back sometime.

A Piece of Heaven
I can't speak highly enough about Willow Creek Inn. Paul and Ginny are the kindest people and amazing hosts. They are always available if needed. The cabin is absolutely spotless and tucked into the trees next to the creek. It's perfectly located away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. We sat on the deck facing the creek every chance we had. To say it was relaxing doesn't do it justice. Listening to the creek flow brought a level of zen we didn't know existed. There is nothing you'll need in the way of amenities because they're all provided. Willow Creek Inn is hands down the best place to stay and experience Alaska. From the moose and her calf that paid a visit to the funny little squirrel that stole peanuts, this place will have you missing it the minute you drive away. I cannot recommend Willow Creek Inn enough. A huge thank you to Paul and Ginny for being such incredible people and sharing their beautiful place!

The Perfect Cabin
It was our third year visiting and the cabin is absolutely perfect. The location, the setting, the communication and just everything. The hosts, Paul and Ginny, are exceptional and always go above and beyond. Already planning our return Winter Wonderland vacation.
