Lovely, quite location with all of the supplies one could need for a relaxing vacation. From the luxury kitchen to the perfectly placed night lights, sauna, and soft towels, each area had a vacation away feeling. The earth-friendly cleaning and soaps were an additional bonus.

Very well equipped cabin. Clean and tastefully decorated. Both the bed and sofa were comfortable. We rented two other cabins in this trip and while this was the most expensive, it was totally worth and was the nicest of the three .

We loved our 2 night stay at this beautifully decorated and lovely cabin. It had everything we needed including a well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer and very comfortable bed. The location was near the town of Talkeetna. We didn’t get to use the sauna but sure it would have been nice. Overall, I would stay here again.

I had a wonderful stay at the Hale Kōlea cabin! It was the perfect weekend getaway. Everything at the property is perfectly thought out and it had every amenity I needed for the stay. Very clean and comfortable. The property is in a very quiet part of the town, but in easy walking distance to the heart of the excitement and history of downtown Talkeetna. It’s truly a “Best of both worlds” kind of situation! This was my second time staying at Hale Kōlea and the hosts are so welcoming and helpful! I can’t wait to stay there again!

The cabin is beautiful! The kitchen was wonderful for a small cabin and the sauna was amazing! It was an easy walk into town as well. The hosts and property manager communicated really well and called to follow up about the reservation as soon as I made it, as well as the day of check in. Thank you for a great stay!

The cabin is really nice, clean, easy check in, good WiFi and TV, and what really sets it a part is there are lots of little things that make it easier to “stay”. There are tissues, need some olive oil, its there, need information on local sites, places to eat… it’s there. Need a cup of coffee, it’s there… The cabin is close enough to the main town to walk, also if you’re taking a flight into Denali, the air strip is also within walking distance. They recommend K2 Aviation, and I would also recommend after our experience with them (you get a discount when you mention the cabin name). Great place !
