The Taiga 2, Studio Apartment

The Taiga House is located in the forest just north of Denali National Park. Once a spacious B&B known as "The Grand View" it has been remade into a family home with two vacation rentals. Our three bedroom, second floor residence is attached, yet private, with an entrance and yard of it's own, amazing views of the local mountains scenery and abundant charm.
Our studio apartment is located on the ground floor, under our 3 bedroom rental. With a entrance of it's own. It sleeps two, with one queen bed, full bath, living room/ dining and a fully equipped kitchen plus a washer/dryer.

Perfect spot for 3-day trip to Denali NP
My spouse and I were looking for a "landing pad" for our trip to Denali NP. This studio apartment was perfect -- exceedingly well equipped, beautiful views out the windows and we managed to have time to sit outside and watch the sun set a night or two after spending the day exploring the park. It's near an IGA/hardware store and there's a sweet path through the woods behind the house I walked each morning after my first cup of coffee. It's about a 15 min drive to Denali visitor center. Everything was perfect.

We’ll Be Back!
Our stay at Taiga 2 was exceptional! It is a very comfortable, clean, well appointed studio apartment that has every thing that you could need! Full kitchen, laundry, coffee maker and lots of extras. Todd greeted us upon our arrival and was as friendly and helpful as could be. After a moose-less day, we came “home” to Taiga 2 and Bullwinkle wandered by about 30 minutes later!

Great location
This studio was perfect for my husband and I. The location was close to Denali National Park where we had a great time exploring. The studio was well equipped, and even included a washer and dryer which was necessary after our adventure. We would definitely stay here again if back in the area.

Great place, great people
Denali was closed due to a wildfire but the Taiga 2, Studio Apartment and Julie and Todd made the trip worth it! The studio is amazing - well thought out and great use of all the space. The beautiful and space saving furniture and appliances make it feel bigger than the pictures. Julie and Todd were great, giving us lots of recommendations for hikes, local activities and resources, including the walking trail on their property. Their dogs are mellow and sweet. Thank you for everything!

A perfect Denali get-away
This lovely little studio provides a perfect, romantic get~away. Its proximity to Denali is convenient and yet it affords plenty of peace and quiet. There’s even a hiking trail on the property! Julie and Todd were gracious hosts and the studio was perfectly appointed. Would definitely recommend!

A cozy getaway for our Denali stay
My husband and I really appreciated the quiet time with nature we experienced here. This cozy, clean studio apartment overlooks a field of spruce trees and is filled with birdsong. The studio was well equipped with kitchen appliances and cookware and the bathroom also had extra shampoo, towels, etc.. We appreciated the extra bug and bear spray too that was on hand as well as a washer/dryer. The unit is conveniently located to several restaurants and is about a :20 drive to the entrance of Denali National Park. The bed was comfortable and provided for an easy night’s rest.

The best thing about The Taiga 2 is the setting-gorgeous views and quiet yard to enjoy. The cozy little studio looked brand new, super clean and pleasantly decorated. Two big window to let view in with black out curtains for sleep. Table and chairs and mini kitchen w stove are nice! Comfortable snug little spot perfect for visiting denali and still having a quiet cozy place to stay out of the bustle.

3 Nights at the Taiga 2.
Stayed 3 nights. Nice and quiet, very clean. The top of the line appliances all look brand new and the shower is fabulous. Nice warm, quiet, reliable Toyo heat kept the temperature exactly where I set it with no fluctuations. Todd and Julie are wonderful hosts, swapped a couple stories with Todd. I'll definitely be staying there again when I'm in the neighborhood.

Great place for Denali adventure!
We loved this little studio apt for the time we spent exploring Denali! Everything was as expected from check in (very easy) to the cleanliness of the unit. It was about a 12 minute drive to the entrance of the park which was also away from the "hustle" of Denali village. We loved the peaceful vibe and the ability to make a few meals at "home". The bed was super comfortable which made it easy to sleep in. If your looking for a place to stay while in the area, I wouldn't hesitate to book this place. Todd and Julie, thank you for creating a place for visitors to get a taste of living in AK.

Cozy Home Far Away From Home
The studio rental was amazing! It was clean, well put-together, and had a lot to offer for a small space. We knew we were in the right place when we were greeted by two happy dogs as we pulled in the property. Awesome to have a kitchen, washer/dryer for after a day on trails, awesome relaxing shower, and super comfy bed. Close to town and Denali for the day trips. Felt very private even though it's attached to other units. Owners stopped in to check in, but left us to ourselves - and made sure we knew that they were there if we needed anything. Well worth the cost, and a beautiful property. Walking trail in the back was a great bonus. Stay here - you'll love it!

Fabulous Stay Near Denali NP
We had a fabulous four night stay at the Taiga 2 Studio and wished we had booked it for a full week. This place had everything we wanted, including a great little custom kitchen with everything we needed to cook as if we were at home. The bed was very comfortable and everything inside was first rate and super clean. Outdoors was a very unexpected surprise with flowers galore, hanging baskets and creative planters that made this place feel like home. Also a gas bbq grill, patio table & chairs, and several benches with sweet Mountain View’s made it easy to slow down and relax. Our host Todd is a super friendly guy who was quick to respond to our requests and gave great recommendations for dining out. The pride of ownership shined through with well thought out touches all over this property. If we return to Alaska we will definitely stay here again!
