Pleasantly surprised
The lodge is a small building, with just a handful of rooms, and a restaurant that has gone out of business. I also think the lodging is going out of business too, which is a disappointment. It looked almost abandoned from the outside, but once inside the room, it is pleasantly well maintained and comfortable. We stayed in room #1 and it had an exterior entrance, plenty of room to spread out, and then had access to an interior hall way and a well-stocked to food area for breakfast.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The cabin is very basic. It's connected to other rooms but does have its own bathroom. It's small and doesn't have much but if you only need a place to sleep, it's a good option. The bar is connected to the rooms on the inside and you can eat there but food was pretty expensive and not very good. They even had great value ketchup in the tables - it turned to mush once you put it on your burger. Conveniently located to Denali though - about 35 min away. Beds were comfortable and shower was clean so that was great.
