Wonderful, relaxing stay.

It was really comfortable with plenty of space. The room was really clean and modern with beds on an upper floor. It is literally 5 minutes from the Denali National Park Bus Depot and Ranger station which was spectacular.

Cabin North

Great clean place in the North cabin. Stayed two nights and located right on the river. Very close to Denali park entrance. Just leave the fans on and you’ll sleep great. A little to much noise if you don’t, but would highly recommend staying here. Nice place to spend a couple nights right next to the mountains. Wish we could park a little closer though.

We loved the cabin at Denli. It was a great location by the river, loved sitting on the deck. Cabin was very clean, the only thing I would suggest is to have plates, silverware and drinking glasses. We traveled by plane and did not think to buy these items before coming to the cabin. ( would also reduce the amount of trash). We had a great time and would definitely come back!

Hosts were very nice and accommodating 😊 and the property was extremely clean with a great location. My only negative was that there was no tv 😳 which actually didn’t matter but could be a problem with some clients. The host did not have a tv listed as an amenity but I think most people assume there will be a tv in the room. Regardless, I would definitely stay here again 👍👍

Cabin was very spacious and clean. Great view of river. Had a microwave and a coffee maker. It’s a nice 1mile hike to the bus depot (the depot can be reached from the train station via free shuttle). It is also a mile walk along the highway to a lot of restaurants, a small grocery store and shops. That area is called Glitter Gulch. From there there might be a shuttle to the park, but I’m not sure.

A large unit with 4 beds. Just right for a group of friends. The kitchen was not properly equipped, and it was hard to make food. The internet was extremely slow.

よい滞在でした。

オーナーさんの女性の方がとても親切にしてくださって本当に助かりました。施設は壁が薄くて隣の話し声もこちらの話し声も聞こえるので気を遣いますが、それを除けば清潔で広くて快適でした。 シャトルバスもUberもないので自分でタクシーを呼ぶ必要があります。タクシーの電話番号もオーナーさんが教えてくれました。 大きな荷物がなければ徒歩でビジターセンター辺りまで行けます。Googleマップではその道を知ることはできませんが、AllTrailsなどのトレイル用のアプリを使ってその道を知る事ができます。

Our room view is Denali mountain skyline & river below. Although the outside grill for cooking was not clearly stated in description? The microwave allowed us to heat our bought food but we were not able to cook our food. Very clean, organized & kitchen & bathroom essentials were neatly located. There was a muzzle up & we ended having upgrade but I was threatened to pay but eventually retracted as it is the fault of the manager. Only 1/4 mile from Denali Park & all restaurants. A great place to return again.

Excellent, just outside the gates of Denali NP

We were very pleased with our stay. The location is perfect and the staff was amazing. Our cabin was on the river, which made for a great experience. Plenty of clean towels and hot water. We loved the humor from the staff. Great, down to earth people.

This cabin was perfect for our family of nine. The four full size beds in the loft were very comfortable, and two couples and four kids slept well. The couch on the first floor was perfect for a fifth child. The kitchen was stocked with the basic utensils we needed to make breakfast and lunch with groceries we brought. There was a porch overlooking the River- the kids loved spending time there. The one bathroom was large, very clean, and well stocked. The staff was excellent- so friendly and helpful. This business is run by a family that cares, and it shows in their attitude and property. Location was excellent- close to the park and to local businesses. It was very reasonably priced. We could not have been more pleased with this cabin and strongly recommend it.
