Struggled to find check in area. Cute, clean, small cabin. Uncomfortable bed. Great hot shower. Very quiet area.
The property owner was helpful and provided some local information, communication was A1. The location is about 20 minutes south of Denali park- which was excellent- Now for the not so good. The mattress in our cabin was worn out, sagged in the middle- we travel a fair amount and it has been awhile since we have experienced this degree of sag. It is a cute concept,with a loft- just needs some TLC-the lock on the door, could be improved as people roam about at night- we were awoken at 4 in am by dudes whooping it up- (no concerns with 4 legged wild life-) the price was similar to others in area- Location is important and price should also reflect amenities- such as comfort and security. Addressing these would make a difference.
I thought it was a cute little cabin. Easily houses 4 people. There is a large stream running through the cabins.
Paths get you to a couple of bars and a cafe.
Note the bathroom is a bathhouse separate from the cabins so plan bathroom trips accordingly. Path to bathhouse, cabins, and food are well lit.
You are 15 minutes from Denali and local shops and food.
I think the outside the owners thought was taking it back to nature but to me it was very unkept. It was trash in the backyard of the buildings. Very difficult to find parking very crowded would not recommend this place

The Expedia listing didn't make it very clear that the cabins we were booking only had shared bathrooms. If that was something we expected, it might've been ok, but we didn't because it wasn't highlighted. Also, there are certain expectations from a property termed a "resort" - this property is basically a set of detached cabins in an amazing location, and if that's what you're looking for, it's great.

Very rustic dry cabin. Nice bathhouse close to cabin. Good restaurant and bakery within walking distance.
Joining units. beautiful units and setting, but the adjoining walls must have been 2x2" walls. Very noisy when the other people got to their room at midnight!!! Pizza place on the property was excellent!!!
Nice cozy rustic stay with the creek flowing right in front of the cabin. The room is nice and cozy with 2 adult beds and one small kid bed. The bathhouse is separate from cabin but is clean.
The only thing missing in bathhouses is the bath rug mat. It gets all wet and difficult to wear clothes in the changing area attached to bathroom.
The door opens only with keys from outside. We dint know it and had to run to the office to get other key which is little far from the cabins on a hill.

It was a decent stay. The room was clean but very basic. Coffee maker was not working but replaced immediately when we notified the owner. The cabins are pretty close together and we had a very belligerent and noisy guest that woke us up very early. Of course that was no fault of the owners or property.
Such a cool property. The beautiful noise of running water was so nice and the cabins were much nicer than I expected. They were like little hotel rooms.
