We actually stayed here in April 2023 and had such a great experience that when we had the opportunity to come to Alaska I knew that I wanted to book here again. The host is very responsive. The cabin is clean and very well appointed. Love the washer and dryer!!

Very clean and nice lodging. Owners were great at communicating. Perfect base camp for anyone wanting to explore the valley and glacier. Only criticism would be that the tv in bedroom was not functioning. Not a big deal, would definitely stay again.

The cabin was very clean and the bed was quite comfy. The kitchen was well furnished. There were even enough eggs and milk for our breakfast along with coffee/ tea options. Granola bars and a few snack paks were a welcome treat. Great views of surrounding mts and atv tours are available at the office.

Beautiful location, very nice and spacious cabins, pretty clean. The downside is I rented a cabin with three beds, why one earth would you charge extra for more than two people ? Very odd when it’s a cabin made for at LEAST three people. Make your price up front and don’t sandbag extra charges.

The host, Lina is great! She & her husband are quite responsive and helpful. They kept their words - whatever they offered before check-in, they provided and kept the promise. They also provided pre-served breakfast which we didn't expect. We are super happy staying in their cottage - wonderful experience! Thank YOU both.

The cottage is spacious and convenient with a kitchen stocked with milk, eggs, oatmeal, trail bars, enough for a good breakfast. It’s very quiet and peaceful, just a little remote, but not too bad.

Cute, well put together cabin. Easy access and parking next to cabin. Beautiful scenery. The only thing I would add is a short stick with a hook to lower bshades over the bed.

Here's an edited version of your review: This Alaskan cottage is the ideal stop on the way to Denali. The space is immaculate and tastefully decorated, creating a cozy, cabin-in-the-woods atmosphere. Matti was quick to respond to my messages, and the breakfast items provided were a thoughtful touch. With plenty of room for our family of five, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
