A fair distance outside of the park with no facilities nearby. A few food trucks were out front. No fridge or microwave in room. No phone service with our carrier however the property offers a once only 30 min free connection then very expensive fees there after. The onsite property has very limited supplies and very little alcohol. We had nice river views.

10 min drive from the park entrance. Has some food trucks at the front for quick brunch. River on the back of the cabins provides a very idyllic setting.

Really enjoyed the location and the room was clean and nice. We were close to Denali and there was a bigger resort to check out and eat at across the street as well as a small town just miles away.

Easy check in and nice to know manager was available on site for emergencies. Parking lot had multiple food trucks for convenience and dining options. Room was clean with clear views of the water, would definitely recommend for shorter Denali trips.

Was a nice place to stay overall. My main complaint was that to use WiFi each person had to pay $35 for 2 days. For my family of 5, that totaled $175 and sometimes it didn’t even work. Our cell service wasn’t good so WiFi was necessary to make calls & text as we were staying in 2 different rooms.
