About this property

Authentic Alaskan cabin experience near the heart of Denali

Our secluded “authentic Alaskan cabin” is nestled in a rustic setting with spectacular mountain views. This private wooded property, boasting an "off the grid" driveway and plenty of wildlife, is walking distance to Otto Lake. Enjoy great fishing, swimming, and other water activities or stop at Black Diamond Resort for tundra golf, horse pulled wagon rides, ATV excursions, or fine dining.

Our quaint town of Healy is the home to several unique dining experiences, an amazing coffee spot, local brewery, and so much more. Down the heart of the community is the Parks Highway, which takes you to an outdoor adventure at Denali National Park less than 15 minutes away.

The authentic Alaskan cabin has an open great room, with sleeper couches, and a built-in dining area. There is a queen blow-up mattress available that is able to sleep two guests in this area. The sitting room, with a day bed and an additional twin mattress, opens to a private patio. Up a steep stairs, which adds to the experience, leads to the loft. The loft has a comfortable full bed, exhilarating views, and additional amenities. The kitchen is full service, with fridge, sink, microwave and stove. Off the main entrance deck, the mountain views are beyond description. The bathroom offers a sink, shower, and a waterless Separett toilet. However, for those truly desiring the full Alaskan experience, there is an “elite” outhouse out back as well. If your previous adventures have left you exhausted, not to worry…we will provide wireless Internet and Netflix.

She lived in Healy, AK for over 22 years, along with time in St. Michael, AK. We have 9 grandchildren with one on the way! Our favorite part about hosting is we get to share our special and unique cabin with people from all over the world. We know our cabin is a great place for family and friends to hang out - we enjoy doing this for our guests.

Why they chose this property

Karla lived in Healy for over 22 years. She raised her three kids here of which two remained. Wanting to be back for the summers, we located the most wonderful property to purchase. It's a really wonderful spot with 8 acres of woods and wildlife. It's quiet, beautiful and nicely tucked away from the bustle of the Park,

What makes this property unique

Our property has a beautiful history. It was homesteaded years ago and has been transformed into an amazing cabin our guests really enjoy staying at. I share a bit of the history during your stay. Many people are grateful I share the history and the man that made it all happen. Also, our property has a patio along with a deck that has spectacular views as well as a covered deck for when it's raining.
