Welcome to Forest Bathing Club by Homestead Hideaways, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame the forest and Chugach Mountains, and the greenbelt trail system starts just beyond the house. After a day outside, come home to a private cinema, three fireplaces and a spa-like primary suite with a rain shower and jetted soaking tub. More Alaska right outside your door, with plenty of reasons to stay in.

The space:
Welcome to Forest Bathing Club by Homestead Hideaways, an Eagle River home built around one of our favorite combinations: wild Alaska outside, serious comfort inside.

The house faces the forest with Chugach Mountain views pouring through floor-to-ceiling windows, while nearby trails make it easy to get outside without turning every outing into an expedition.

And when you come back?

There are plenty of reasons to stay put.

Soak. Light a fire. Put on a movie. Watch the mountains change from the private ensuite main bedroom patio.

Getting closer to Alaska doesn’t have to mean roughing it.

Why Guests Love It
• Forest and Chugach Mountain views from floor-to-ceiling windows
• Trails literally outside your door
• Deep jetted soaking tub with bath salts
• Spa-like primary suite
• Private cinema for movie nights
• Three wood fireplaces throughout the home
• See-through indoor/outdoor fireplace connecting the home to the patio
• One of Eagle River’s most sought-after residential settings

The heart of the house is surrounded by glass, with soaring mountain and forest views that make the outside feel like part of the room.

Curl up beside the fire. Spread out with the people you came with. Or just keep one eye on the windows.

Sometimes Alaska comes to you.

The home is designed around both sides of an Alaska trip:
• Get outside: trails, mountains and forest are right there
• Come back warm: three fireplaces give you plenty of places to thaw out
• Actually relax: the primary suite pairs a shower with a deep jetted soaking tub and bath salts
• Stay in on purpose: the private cinema makes a rainy or snowy night part of the plan
• Take it outside: the see-through fireplace carries straight through to the patio

The primary suite
After a long day outside, this is where you disappear for a while.
Take a shower. Fill the jetted soaking tub. Pick your bath salts. Close the door.

Sink into the comfy king bed.

We put a lot of thought into what feels good after the hike, the ski, the cold day, or whatever Alaska handed you.

Because where you come back to shouldn’t be another adventure.

The cinema
Not every great Alaska night needs an itinerary.
Some call for popcorn, blankets and absolutely no reason to leave the house again.

The private cinema gives the whole group somewhere to settle in, and it’s one more reason the stay itself can become part of the trip.

Three fireplaces, because Alaska:

You’ll find three fireplaces throughout the home, including a striking see-through fireplace that connects the interior living space with the outdoor patio.

Inside when it’s cold.

Outside when you refuse to admit you’re cold.

Either way, fire helps.

Then there’s outside:
The home faces directly into the forest, with trails nearby and the Chugach rising beyond the trees.

This is the kind of Eagle River setting where “close to nature” isn’t listing language.

It’s the view out the window.

Start the morning on the trail. Come back for a soak. Spend the evening beside the patio fireplace while the mountains fade into the evening light.

That’s the version of Alaska we like best: more of it right outside your door, without giving up the comforts that make you want to stay awhile.

Eagle River:
You’re tucked into one of Eagle River’s most desirable residential areas, with forest, trails and mountain views surrounding you while still having convenient access to town and Anchorage.

It’s close enough to everything you need.

Far enough away that the windows have much better things to look at.

Good to know:
Trails: The home sits immediately beside a network of walking trails, making it easy to head outside straight from the neighborhood.

Primary suite: Includes a deep jetted soaking tub, shower and bath salts provided for your stay.

Cinema: Private movie room exclusively for guests.

Fireplaces: Three fireplaces throughout the home, including a see-through indoor/outdoor fireplace opening toward the patio.

Setting: This is a residential neighborhood. You get the forest and mountain setting without being isolated from the conveniences of Eagle River.

A great day in Alaska should end somewhere equally good.
