Welcome to our completely off grid Willow Alaska Cabin.
Welcome to Modern Homestead Alaska. We are located in South Central Alaska near the town of Wasilla. Living in Alaska and building our dream of “modern Homesteading” through the wilds of winter and the long summer days. We started building our Modern Homestead in 2021. We have since completed the upper levels of our home. Built a 16x16 foot chicken coop that dreams are made of. Our chicken ladies live in luxury as they view the beautiful lake from large windows inside the beautiful coop. We raise our own poultry, hunt for our food. We are avid fisherman And woman. We also built an amazing and beautiful wood shed. We have great big garden planes for the future. Join us as we dream big dreams and live everyday working hard to accomplish them.

Sonofagun!! After watching a lot of videos of people moving to Alaska, I finally see a place I totally know!! It is a well built place, make sure the window screens are all good. You will need them!! I have sat on that deck and had morning tea there. She preferred tea over coffee. Enjoy the place. Lots of room for having such a small footprint. I lived in Alaska for 51 years, from Ketchikan to Fairbanks and all points in between. Unfortunately I had to leave due to health reasons and am in the hills of Tennessee. I will always miss Alaska but I do not miss 40 below and the dang mosquitoes!! Enjoy the place. Thanks for the videos. retired ole Ron.

Hi Jessica and sweet family! I just love the cabin and it’s located by the river with a spectacular view is beyond perfect. I’m sure your mother will fell like her wish came true. Can’t wait to see what plans are coming for the cabin and the family will have a place to make special memories. The flowers and flag is perfect, just makes for the picture perfect dream cabin. I hope many years and memories too your mom, you and the family. I bet Calab is excited to be staying at the cabin. I hope you and your family have a blessed day!

Love the place you've found there. After living in a similar place in Australia I would highly recommend leaving the shipping container as your power house and lift it up higher on steel stumps, possibly as high as the house and get as much out from under the house as possible with bigger water storage solutions. This will keep your expensive batteries and solar out of danger and accessible in the snow.
