About the host
Hosted by Tracey Smith
Owned by two best friends, Holly Slinkard and Tracey Smith. We purchased our main property McKinley Creekside Cabins & Cafe in 1997 and the 'Carlo House' and 'Carlo Guest Cabin' in 2009. Both of us being avid travelers ourselves, our goal was to create a place 'Where guests become friends'. We found in our travels that the best experiences, had more to do with the people we met and friends made on the journey.
We both live in Alaska year round. Holly spends 8 months in Denali and the remainder in Anchorage and traveling the world in the off season. Tracey lives in Palmer with her husband and son.
We are most thankful to the Lord above, all our guests and crew members for making this life possible in such an amazing place.
We know you will enjoy your time at the 'Carlo Guest Cabin' and Denali National Park, truly an amazing place!
