Very Good

Great it had a fire pit and a hot tub. Plus a coffee house and restaurant on site. Transportation was provided but we didn’t use it, still it was a great feature.
Absolutely wonderful experience. Staff was extremely helpful, informative and friendly. Restaurant had a great menu for diner and the coffee shop's breakfast selection was good too! 100% would book again.
The cabin was clean and neat. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant on site made the best spruce tip wings. They were awesome. I would recommend this cabin.
We were there in 40 degrees weather. Cabins are compact but modern, cozy, warm and clean The beds are comfortable. Linens, towels premium. Great supply hot water. Restaurant, lil gift shop and coffee shop on the property make it convenient. 8 miles or so from Denali Ntl Park. Bummed there was no refrigerator or microwave but no place is perfect. Staff were excellent. Only issues included few spider webs in room, shower had low pressure, loud heater fan and toilet is not elongated so kinda small .

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
We booked this late, and were grateful to find a place with 2 beds & a shower. I said, it would have been nice if the property would’ve disclosed ahead of time that they were conducting construction right outside our cabin. The construction started at 7 AM & we had construction workers talking right outside our walls, as well as leaning their equipment up against the wall. There were no refrigerator or microwave in the room, which would have been nice to have traveling back-and-forth between Denali with a family. The cabins are poorly built, the floor is slanted and the walls are thin. Not worth the price to stay.
It was nice that there was a restaurant and coffee shop on site. And the staff were friendly. Overall, would probably look for a different place to stay next time.
It is very small and tacky cabin. Very very expensive for $400 price point, it is like $50 motel inside. The bathroom was small and stinky. Terrible experience. Dragging bags through gravel is no fun either. It is 15+ mins drive to the Denali park and the major city center with food drinks etc. I won’t recommend
Cabins were rustic yet cozy and with all that was needed. Beautifully located near Denali NO with very convenient shuttle to the park. I stayed an extra day because I was so pleased with the cabins, staff and location.
Excellent coffee shop on site - staff are awesome! Nice sauna and hot tubs. Showers in the cabins could be better but overall the stay was very good. Highly recommended as this is a smaller facility as opposed to the larger “cruise” owned hotels in the area.
