Excellent view of the mountains, really loved and used the deck. Cabin was clean and cozy. There was plenty of room for our group of 4. We were lucky enough to get a great view of Denali. Spent a day travelling to the national park, a bit of a drive but highly recommend that. Overall a nice place to stay.

Cottage was well taken care of and met all our needs. Unfortunately no Denali view when we were there. I suppose that happens a lot.

A slice of Heaven

At the risk of this property being booked when I want to come back to Talkeetna, I loved this property. Eight of us booked 2 cabins and were pleasantly surprised they were next to each other. We were greeted by Whitney, the host who provided great information about the area. Our view of Denali and the range from the back deck of the 1st cabin was fabulous! Great location, clean cozy cabins and they were perfect for 4 people in each. There is a 3rd cabin to the left. Our next group visit, we will try to get all 3! Thanks Whitney for a wonderful stay!

Such beautiful views!

This property did not disappoint! This charming cabin was in a perfect location back from the road. It was quiet and had the most beautiful view from the deck and the large picture window in the upstairs bedroom. Perfect for two to three people comfortably. We loved it so much and will be back soon!

Great view

Nice, clean property. I'm glad we stayed in summer with our little sedan. You would need better in the winter. The view is worth it. My downstairs bed was very firm, but fine. We would stay again. Thanks!

Cozy cabin with a view

This cabin is tucked away in a scenic spot yet minutes from town. Unfortunately it was raining during our stay but we could still tell that they view off the back deck and the main bedroom were amazin! The cabin is pretty basic, don't expect anything modern but it was clean and has a fridge and small kitchen area and TV. Heater kept us cozy. Plenty of room for a family although the bathroom is small. Be careful on the back deck railing, it felt a little wobbly. Overall a great place to stay with the best views.

Nice place but too many mosquitoes

The cabin was very nice and was just as described in the listing. It would be a great place at a different time of year, but in mid June it is impossible to go outside because of the mosquitoes. you are not even able to get into your car without being swarmed and a half dozen little critters following you in.

The BEST view

We really liked our stay here, not least, because the mountain was out at around 6.30am when we woke up and wow, what a view to wake up to!TLDR: would stay again.To be aware of: 1) if you're not comfortable on gravel roads, it might be a touch hairy. We are, and had a 4WD rental, so it was a fun ride up the hill. 2) Only 1 of the 3 bedrooms with the mountain view (upstairs queen). But this means the communal space has the view too, so everyone can appreciate it. 3) Bathroom is downstairs. 4) Mosquitos, of course, are everywhere. We thought it wonderful that they included one of those electronic 'tennis raquets' to zap any that got inside.5) If you like long showers, this is not the place for you. The nature of the location means that you need to be conservative with water. There's enough, so long as you're not going crazy.6) If you're there in the summer, take a good eye mask with you.Bottom line: would stay again, and keep everything crossed for the glorious view once more.

We had such a wonderful time here! Our family all felt it was very nice. Not too far from town but far enough that you felt able to enjoy the wild. The host was amazing and so helpful for our stay. 10/10, will be staying here if we are ever back in the area! We saw a moose and her twins just down the road!
