The Taiga House - inspiring mountain views at the edge of Denali National Park

Back on the market after taking 2 years off to rent out yearly.

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. It sleeps six, with 2 queen beds and a daybed with trundle bed under, full bath, spacious living room/dining and fully equipped kitchen plus a washer/dryer.
There is a bar-b-que grill, picnic table, fire pit and amazing wilderness just outside the door.
There are restaurants, a brew pub, and a full grocery stores just a ten minute walk down the trail, or a two minute drive away, and many more restaurants, bars and shops twelve miles south in the bustling tourist zone known as Glitter Gulch outside the entrance to Denali Park.

Perfect Stay
We loved the proximity of the house to the park! We really enjoyed our stay. The house was super clean and comfy. We loved the views out of the window and loved playing with the dogs. We grilled out one night. The kitchen was to stocked with everything we needed. We had a nice hot shower too which was nice.

We booked last minutes while traveling in Alaska and an unexpected flight changed forced a sudden cancellation. The hosts were quick to respond and generous with their policy. Will definitely stay with them when we return and can get to the Denali area.

Great lication
We were fortunate enough to be able to rent the studio apartment as well as the three bedroom one bath house. This combination was perfect for our group of eight which consisted of three couples and two single adults. The houses were great and had everything we needed. We especially appreciated them, leaving us spare spray. We were also appreciative That we didn't need to use the bear spray The houses were close to many Denali activities and we had a wonderful time there.

We agree with all of the previous lauditory reviews, and would only add that we were very impressed with the high quality selection of kitchen knives. It added to the delight of preparing our meals and enjoying them with stellar mountain views.

Great place, friendly hosts
The Taiga house is exactly as advertised and the backyard was a huge bonus. Comfortable house with a kitchen that made it easy to cook a few meals. Great access to Denali. Near grocery store and (underwhelming yet popular) brewery. Bedrooms have the best blackout curtains I’ve ever seen. Unfortunately the park was closed while we were in town but there is a 4 mile hike right out the back of the property that was fun for the family.

Pretty dope for one bath.
Really great. House was clean and easy. The dogs were super nice, cute, and fun. Only challenge was 1 bathroom for 6 people but the ad was accurate and we knew it going in. Still we had a great time and I would give high marks all around.

Amazing vacation spot! SO clean!
We picked this location due to the great reviews, so our expectations were high- and the Taiga house exceeded them! This property was SO clean, well appointed, and had thoughtful extra touches! I definitely recommend using this as a home base for your Denali travels. My husband, myself, and our adult daughter and son in law loved it. We wished we had more time! The view was amazing and we were super comfortable. Thanks for a great end to our Alaskan adventure!

Fabulous Find!
We loved our time at The Taiga House, the pictures don't do it justice! Todd warmly greeted us and told us about the property, including a trail we could walk on the property, which we did and was a lovely hour walk into the spruce trees. You enter the space on the ground floor where there is the washer/dryer and place for putting on shoes. Bear spray and bug spray were provided for walks on the property. To get into the apartment, you climb a set of stairs (although there was a wheelchair lift, we didn't need it but ask if you might!) The kitchen had very nice high-end appliances! There were six chairs for the table which had a great view of the mountains. Plenty of comfortable seating in the living area. There were fans in the closet for the bedrooms, which we did use because it was warm when we were in Denali. The room darkening blinds were effective and the beds were comfortable! I highly recommend a stay at the Taiga House! It was perfect for our family of five.

The place was clean, modern, well equipped and best of all, the view from the great room was beautiful! It is about 15 minutes from Denali National Park. The host was friendly and knows a lot about the area. It can be a little challenging to find the first time, but it’s only a couple minutes from the main road in Healy which has a couple restaurants,

We had a great time. The view was incredible, the grounds laced with trails, and The Taiga house was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Many extras , such as laundry detergent etc. were included which was very thoughtful. Todd answered our every question. We wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you!

Amazing Rental!
This is about 10 minutes from Denali with an awesome view of the mountains. Our hosts seemed to think ahead to provide those extras that were so nice- coffee, nice coffee pot, nice appliances, & plenty of space to put our stuff. They were there on property & welcomed us & asked if there was anything we needed. I definitely recommend this property!!!!

The property is conveniently located to Denali National Park, about 15 minutes away. The house has amazing views of the mountains, so beautiful! And we were visited by a Mama Moose and Baby! This is a perfect house to stay in while visiting the Park. Thank you Julie and Todd for sharing your place.
