Lovely little cabin close to Denali but removed enough to avoid traffic and excessive people. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Coffee was excellent. The river that goes through the property was beautiful and we had a stunning view of the mountains from our porch. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Fantastic Place to Stay Near Denali National Park
We were very pleased with this 3-night stay near Denali National Park. Beautiful scenery all around the cabins. Our cabin was located just alongside a beautiful creek with snowcapped mountains.
