Such a cute cottage. It is super clean with so many amenities. We particularly enjoyed spending time on the porch, taking in the view and the peacefulness. The grill on the porch was great for dinners. We would definitely stay again if we returned to the area.
This was our morning view from the porch.

We loved the location as it was convenient for visiting Denali National Park but also in a beautiful location of its own. The views of the trees and mountains were beautiful and the visit by some wildlife (a snowshoe hare and a two moose) was fun to experience. The cottage itself was very nicely equipped and organized. Our stay there was wonderful!

Lovely property and view

My husband and I enjoyed 3 nights here while visiting Denali NP. We were about 15 min away from the visitor center and very close to gas stations/restaurants. The property is immaculate, well stocked, clean, and quiet and restful. We highly recommend and would love to return for a future stay!

We enjoyed our 3 night stay here very much. It had everything we needed, well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer and comfortable bed. The cottage was only about 20 minutes from Denali. The road in to the cottage was a little rough but no problem for our sedan. The hosts were excellent and easy to communicate with if need be. I would stay here again.
