The lower rating 4/5 is due to the driveway area on the property which is rough but everything else was great. Partner and I stayed for 4 night. Place was exactly as it said- just right for 4 wonderful days in Denali. Host’s stepdaughter and friend were amazingly helpful for local tips, moose watching, northern lights and blueberries- we saw it all! Place was ideal for long days away and having a comfy bed and hot shower. Would love an electric skillet but everything else was well thought out with everything that was needed for some light microwave use, fridge and comfortable accommodations.

The listing says two queen beds - NO BEDS AT ALL - the downstairs had a Murphy Bed that took up the entire space. The Loft - only reachable by a ladder - had a twin sized futon. There was no place for a table and chairs and it was extremely cramped for just the two of us. No bed pad was provided and the Murphy bed's mattress was a foam cushion. There was no place to unpack or hang our clothes (we stayed four nights so this was an issue). And the cabin was situated in the middle of the driveway - not on the pond as indicated in all the photos. On the plus side, it was clean. We never would have stayed here if we knew it was a Murphy bed. Buyer beware!

This was a cozy cabin that was small for 4 but still did the job. Loved the setting. Only drawback was very spotty or no wireless so couldnt communicate with host easily and its a work in progress site so lots of dirtpiles and uneven gravel and ruts but i am sure that will sorted out as it is still a beautiful spot.
