Lovely little cabin close to Denali but removed enough to avoid traffic and excessive people. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Coffee was excellent. The river that goes through the property was beautiful and we had a stunning view of the mountains from our porch. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Several nice touches like homemade cookies in our room, a hand written personalized welcome note, a postcard of the property (which is something that was common many years ago but rare today).
What a beautiful property with a gorgeous creek flowing. Parking is easy and the cafe has absolutely great breakfast lunch and dinner and warm friendly staff

No tv; no phone. Presentdial de
Bate was Sept 10 and no services and no amends. Friends only had one sink!!
Quiet, quaint property not to far from Denali national park. It has a nice place to eat and the food was good. The room was clean, but there was supposed to be a tv in the room we rented and there was not, so that was a little disappointing. Would visit again but would want to make sure we had the tv since it was listed in the description when I booked the room.
Clean, comfortable, beautiful surroundings. Staff are all friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They set up a few different excursions for us. We had a wonderful time here and hated to have to leave.
We loved the gorgeous & peaceful location of these cabins!
Having an onsite restaurant & bakery was incredibly convenient (as well as an open-late restaurant next door).
The staff were all very friendly but we do recommend coming early for the restaurant & being prepared to wait as they get full fast and the service can be a bit slow - but the food was worth it!
Also noteworthy is that if you did not rent a car, getting around can be difficult because no courtesy shuttles pick up at this location so you have to book a shuttle (Denali Transportation $25/person each way).
Other than that, it was amazing!
Only "window" on creekside was a sliding door that had not screen so choice was no breeze, no creek sounds, and therefore no mosquitos OR all 3 in the cabin. Otherwise generally comfortable and clean.
Beautiful location. Restaurant in site very good. We had breakfast and dinner there twice. To go lunch was great. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms were comfortable.
Amazing stay with a great cafe on grounds. Creek flowing by beautiful area all around. Staff for cabins and cafe were top notch! Drive to Denali park about 10 miles - our cabin was an individual so privacy was perfect. We loved our stay here!
