What is Gigglewood?"Gigglewood" are tree limbs, which have been injured and deformed during early growth years. Each piece of Gigglewood has been gathered and artfully given a special place in this unique display of natural architecture. Twists of "Gigglewood" gracefully support handrails and roof fascia.

The cabins overlook a wide, shallow lake with waterfowl and a beaver pond. We went out in the paddleboat, and they also have mountain bikes for you to use. The location of Gigglewood makes a great home base for fishing in the area. We used it as a place to just relax for a day; it was a midway point between the interior and coastal legs of our Alaska vacation. It was a great move on our part, because it was the perfect place to just sit and enjoy the peace and the scenery. I'd specifically recommend this either for people who want to fish in the area, or for people like us who are looking for an idyllic place to rest.
