Wonderfully appointed, clean cabin in a charming setting close to the park. We enjoyed sitting around the fire pit watching the airstrip as well as the surrounding scenery. Oh so close to Denali. Will absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend this property. (Airplane noise was not a distraction for us)

Perfect home at Denali

We absolutely loved this cabin and wished we had planned 1 more day in Denali. The cabin is spotless, so spacious and relaxing. All the comforts of home are there and you are so close to Denali adventures. We recommend the flight seeing tour, the bus tour and at least 1 hike. Then a relaxing evening watching the planes from the cabin. Lovely stay and our hosts were so helpful.

Perfect location near Delani!

We absolutely love our stay at this cabin. It’s only a few minutes away from Delani National Park. It sits by an airstrip and we loved watching the planes fly out! We booked a last minute tour with Denali Air and it was the highlight of our stay! The Cabin is cleaned and well stocked. Communication with the owners was easy. We highly recommend this cabin, our family had the best time!

Awesome Stay

I took my family to Alaska for my dad's 65th birthday and not a single thing (besides the fire in Denali NP) disappointed, especially the stay at Kelly's house at MP 229.5! The log cabin feel of the house was especially cozy, and my family was fascinated by all the pelts and aviation decor all around the house, which made it feel even more unique. Kelly was a great host, property was clean and well described - and the convenience of the Denali Air airstrip was an added bonus as we both watched AND flew in the planes there. Absolutely would come back!

The cabin is very nice, although the living room would be small for a group of six to congregate. Considering it never gets dark in the summer we would have liked shades on the front door window. We enjoyed watching the airplanes take off and land.

Log Cabin in Denali

From the time we walked in we felt like we were stepping into the Alaska mountain back country. It was a great location so close to Denali, but made us feel like we were in our own back cabin. The cabin was super clean, wonderfully decorated and had all the supplies we needed. Although we didn't barbecue, the set up was nice to bbq outside. Next time we will take an evening to eat outdoors. It was fun watching the planes taking off right outside our door. Beds were comfortable and the living room was just right to sit and visit at the end of the day. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay! The cabin was cozy and comfortable and very conveniently located close to Denali national park entrance and food and shops in the area. It was unique to be next to an airport and fun to see the planes once and a while. The information provided by the host on the property and surrounding area was helpful.

This place was GREAT! All the light switched where labeled, the place was clean, enough towels for everybody, we had 4 adults and didn't feel crowded. We basically used it for a place to sleep while we visited Denali. We saw one plane take off and that was pretty neat. Very easy to locate while driving down the road.Brian

The property was beautiful and close to the park. It was in a great location. We had the best prime rib dinner at a restaurant right down the street at the creekside cafe. The house was exactly as pictured.
