Exceeded expectations

First, I want to mention how clean the house was upon arrival. Everything to dishes, towels, utensils and supplies were well thought out and organized not too much and not too little. We stayed the first two weeks in June so the weather was still a little cold even snowed one night, fishing wasn't the best but we expected that even the fly-fishing guide said he was struggling. The property is beautiful we took a little hike in the back and ran into a red fox, The location is remote but our focus was Mt. Mckinley and we explored a lot of the park which was really nice. We also did the ATV tour in Healy and wen to the brewery great place. My son wanted to hit some fishing holes in Willow which is a few hours away on the way back we stopped in Talkeetna (highly recommend). We also went into Denali city ate at some of the lodges which were amazing. Hot tub was a nice bonus especially with all the rain and cool weather. We were able to see caribou, Dall sheep 27 moose and calfs, no bears. If you like wilderness and exploring this is a great place. If I had to do it again I would take one of the tour buses or trains and stay 2 or 3 nights and head down to coopers landing or Homer a little more to do and warmer weather. The host was fantastic, and I cannot say enough about this cozy home. Thank you for sharing your property.

Fantastic & Beautiful Chalet

We had a wonderful time in Alaska at this Chalet. The location is perfect for visiting Denali. The chalet is beautiful insise and out. The views of the lake and mountains are spectacular. We were able to see Denali from the balcony on the second floor. Having a full kitchen with all the amenities made life easy because we were on the go every day. Cheryl and Kelly were wonderful, they addresed all of questions and concerns. If you want a fantastic place to stay pick this chalet.

The location is absolutely stunning. The mountain views from every window did not disappoint. The home is very well kept and had everything for our stay. It wasn't just a shell of a house. The feeling there was warm and inviting. It felt like home. My kids enjoyed the paddle boat and hanging out on the deck. I wish we could have enjoyed the hot tub, but we didn't have enough time. We'd love to come back for a future visit.
View of the lake. Absolutely beautiful!!

Actual Perfection

You will feel like you are borrowing a friend’s home that is just a short drive to Denali National Park.We had everything we needed from a well appointed kitchen to a super cozy living room and more. While the description and pictures of this home are very accurate, you just have to see these views for yourself. If you are looking for a homebase while you enjoy the park, this is it.

Our whole group was very impressed with this rental. Kelly made check in very easy and was very quick and helpful to answer any questions we had. The house was spotless upon arrival and immediately felt like home. The location was great and very peaceful. About 30 minutes from Denali National Park and right off of the scenic Denali highway. I’d stay here again in an instant!

Beautiful, peaceful home near Denali

My parents, husband, and I had a wonderful stay! This property is perfect for those wanting to explore Denali National Park and stay in a peaceful location away from the cruise ship hotels. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need and we loved the hot tub. We also appreciated being able to use the washer/dryer. Would definitely return!

Home base for Denali

This home was perfect for our time spent at Denali National Park... the kitchen had everything we needed and the home was clean, cozy and had plenty of room for our group of 4 to spread out. Waking up to the views everyday really spoiled us. The weather wasn't ideal our first 2 days to get a good view of Denali but on day 3 when we were leaving, we were able to see it from the top deck, and then again on our drive back south. Definitely recommend this home for your stay!

Denali getaway

This property had all the amenities you would want to experience a relaxing vacation in Alaska. The proximity to Denali National park was very convenient and allowed for easy day trips. Then returned to relax in the hot tub with mountain views, campfire under the midnight sun, paddle boat on the tranquil Lake.Highly recommend!!
