We stayed in the main lodge and had plenty of space for our family of 4 and a lot more privacy than in the larger hotels. The room was comfortable and the host very friendly.

The owner, Stacey, is very nice and the lodge and our rooms on the first floor of the lodge were terrific. We’ll stay here again when we’re back in Talkeetna. It’s just outside town, is clean, spacious, and recently renovated.
