Ok place. Big disappointment was no free wifi and an expensive shuttle unlike every other property.

10 min drive from the park entrance. Has some food trucks at the front for quick brunch. River on the back of the cabins provides a very idyllic setting.

A fair distance outside of the park with no facilities nearby. A few food trucks were out front. No fridge or microwave in room. No phone service with our carrier however the property offers a once only 30 min free connection then very expensive fees there after. The onsite property has very limited supplies and very little alcohol. We had nice river views.

Really enjoyed the location and the room was clean and nice. We were close to Denali and there was a bigger resort to check out and eat at across the street as well as a small town just miles away.

Was a nice place to stay overall. My main complaint was that to use WiFi each person had to pay $35 for 2 days. For my family of 5, that totaled $175 and sometimes it didn’t even work. Our cell service wasn’t good so WiFi was necessary to make calls & text as we were staying in 2 different rooms.

It was a lovely property and close to the park. There are multiple food trucks in the facility that are very easy and yummy. Know that WiFi is expensive and service is minimal, but other than that, a lovely and rustic place!

This was our most expensive stay during our whole trip in Alaska but our least favorite. The location was great as it was close to Denali national park. There was also nice trails nearby and we even got to see a moose on one of the trails. The rooms were clean but no fridge or microwave. There was a microwave in the store that we could use but not until 9 am. Also, wifi was only included for the first 30 minutes and then you would have to pay for longer. Also the shower would get cold pretty quickly.

Great view of trees along a creek. Good clean ADA accessible room, but beds needed more pillows and blankets. Limited food trucks are on site (Jamaican and Thai). You can drive 6 miles for more food options. All in all, seeing Denali National Park, was worth any other inconvenience.

Room was very clean and comfortable. Price $300 for two beds, much less than resort across the highway. Fills up depending on cruise bookings.

The rv dump station was across from our building and stunk, but we had to keep our window open, because there was no air conditioning and it was hot inside the room. There was no fan to cool things down either. The wifi is charged $20 per day per device, which is outrageous. We much preferred the White Moose Lodge a few miles away for comfort and conveniences (and free wifi).

Rooms are good and location is scenic . But away from dine in options. No free WiFi ( more than 30 mins everyday ) , which we encountered first time compare to many hotels and resorts . Cleaning service is only when ask for it. Everyday I have I ask for supplies for making coffee . On site dining options of Thia and Spanish food truck were Ok

Big negative is that they don’t provide free Wi-Fi service even after charging so much money per day. We had yo buy it for 20 dollars per phone per day which is very absurd unlike other hotels near by. I will go for other properties near Denali visitor center.

For the price, no amenities. Small beds. We were led to believe I booked a room with the balcony over the river and instead was provided a room overlooking the parking lot. Less than friendly ladies in the check-in office. I wish we had stayed across the street; we went there to hang out, dine.

This place was fantastic. Conveniently located to the National Park, and close enough to restaurants and shopping without being in the middle of things. Lovely view of the river and woods, with rooms that were clean and cute. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We had an excellent stay and would recommend it to anyone!

The room was clean and spacious enough for 3 people. My husband loved how the balcony faced the beautiful river and mountains. Every so often, the train would go by, which we got a kick out of. The location is very close to the NP Bus Depot and Visitor Center. The only down side was there was not a lot of amenities on the property. There was a Thai and a Mexican food truck. We tried the Thai one night and it was good. For a good cup of coffee, the Denali NP Bus Depot is about a 10-15 minute drive away. They open at 5:30 am and have Starbucks. It's quite light most of the day so getting up at 5 or 6 is easy. It was in the 80s when we were there and quite warm in the room. I heard this high of a temperature is atypical. Not sure if the front desk had fans or not.
