Wish we could have stayed forever!!

It was amazing!! Euphoric! The drive up there is a bit sketchy this time of the year but is absolutely worth it!! As you turn off the highway you drive down a private driveway through the trees to the beautiful lodge nestled in the middle of the woods. The cabins are comfortable and warm!

Beautiful Snowy Escape

This was a beautiful lodge, especially amazing if you enjoy nature and want to get away from the city. It's like a lodge straight out of a Christmas movie if you go when it has snowed. The property was just a beautiful area to explore and they had snow shoes that we were able to borrow to aid in the exploration. The room was cozy and the hosts were welcoming, as well as were quick to respond when we had questions. The view was beautiful and the interior was nicely decorated, and very clean. Overall, it was an amazing experience and a breathtaking place to stay.

Shared cabin style with beautiful property!

This lodge was a shared space cabin style but also quite private. Private bathroom and sleeping area. Shared dining, living room and kitchen. Our fav part was the gorgeous cabin kitchen breakfast laid out on pretty rustic dishes. It is off the beaten path and not touristy. We felt like we were being hosted by friends. Gorgeous property too.

Great place to stay between Denali and Fairbanks. Secluded place; would be a great place for a group, just to stay put - and enjoy time inside the cozy cabin or outside - picnic or play outdoor games. Well maintained, and decent breakfast (bread and coffee). Open kitchen - so you can also cook for yourself.
