9.8/10 Exceptional! (103 reviews)
Absolutely wonderful accommodation. Right at the edge of a lake, with canoes/kayaks and fire pit by the water. Great continental breakfast provided in our room. Microwave, dishes, etc. Friendly staff and COMFORTABLE beds. Great water pressure in the shower. Located near Healy and Denali National Park - close enough, but still quiet. And several nights in a row, from one to six moose would casually wander across the shore - LITERALLY within 100 feet of us. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Our stay was okay, but the fridge in our room did not work and the front desk staff did not communicate well with the shuttle, which resulted in us being late for plans we had later in the day.

"This place was excellent.

I don't know of anywhere ..."
