The Taiga 2, Studio Apartment

The Taiga House is located in the forest just north of Denali National Park. Once a spacious B&B known as "The Grand View" it has been remade into a family home with two vacation rentals. Our three bedroom, second floor residence is attached, yet private, with an entrance and yard of it's own, amazing views of the local mountains scenery and abundant charm.
Our studio apartment is located on the ground floor, under our 3 bedroom rental. With a entrance of it's own. It sleeps two, with one queen bed, full bath, living room/ dining and a fully equipped kitchen plus a washer/dryer.

This was one of the nicest VRBO’s I’ve stayed at. The place was gleaming. Everything was in excellent repair and the quality of everything was excellent. It was perfect for one or two persons.

Great place to stay and day trip to Denali

This place was great. Super comfortable. Easy to get to and super accommodating hosts. Todd had great suggestions for things to do and I took the Kantishna bus tour and saw 9 grizzly bears that day! I’d stay here again.

A perfect Denali get-away

This lovely little studio provides a perfect, romantic get~away. Its proximity to Denali is convenient and yet it affords plenty of peace and quiet. There’s even a hiking trail on the property! Julie and Todd were gracious hosts and the studio was perfectly appointed. Would definitely recommend!

Favorite VRBO in AK

This VRBO was precisely what we needed for our 2 nights/3 days in Denali. Kitchen, laundry, spacious bathroom and bed. Simple but such a thought out and designed space. The host was kind and met us upon arrival. It’s about 20 minutes from the entrance to Denali but honestly it wasn’t an issue and we enjoyed being a little ways from the main tourism sites.

Perfect spot for 3-day trip to Denali NP

My spouse and I were looking for a "landing pad" for our trip to Denali NP. This studio apartment was perfect -- exceedingly well equipped, beautiful views out the windows and we managed to have time to sit outside and watch the sun set a night or two after spending the day exploring the park. It's near an IGA/hardware store and there's a sweet path through the woods behind the house I walked each morning after my first cup of coffee. It's about a 15 min drive to Denali visitor center. Everything was perfect.

3 Nights at the Taiga 2.

Stayed 3 nights. Nice and quiet, very clean. The top of the line appliances all look brand new and the shower is fabulous. Nice warm, quiet, reliable Toyo heat kept the temperature exactly where I set it with no fluctuations. Todd and Julie are wonderful hosts, swapped a couple stories with Todd. I'll definitely be staying there again when I'm in the neighborhood.
