Beautiful log cabin
This home was great for the 4 of us. Well stocked kitchen, easy access to Denali National Park and quiet despite being right next to an air strip.

Exceeded our expectations!
What a wonderful place to stay. The photos honestly do not do this house justice. It is a gem! It was clean, great communication and stocked with what you would need. The fun addition is the air strip near the house that you can watch planes taking off. If you have any airplane fans, this is the house for you! We highly recommend this to any families or couples going to Denali National Park.

Cabin will easily accommodate 6 adults. Property is very clean and as advertised. Kitchen is well equipped and comes with a lot of different spices which really helps with cooking in. The owners are a pleasure to interact with. Distance to the Denali park entrance is probably a 10 minute drive.

Beautiful place near Denali
We loved the log cabin feel of this property. It was very clean and well stocked. It was near the airstrip so taking a tour was very easy. We also went to Denali for the day and this property was very welcoming after a long day. We ate at Mckinley Cabin Cafe & Bakery and the 49th Street Brewery (Healy). Both were excellent. Plenty to do near this property

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.

Excellent lodging!
Well-stocked with essentials. We even found bear spray (which saved us having to rent it) and bug spray. I brought laubdry and dishwasher soap, but they had both available. They even had big bittles of shampoo and conditioner in each bathroom. We stayed a week and it was the perfect basecamp for all of our exploring. It was very clean and all appliances eorked realky well. The firepit was a great touch, enjoyed by the adults for quiet morning coffee while the kids were still asleep and a great way to get the loud kids out of the cabin in the evening to make smores. The owners are incredibly responsive but did not invade our privacy at all during our stay. I strongly recommend this place to everyone.

Absolutely fantastic. The log cabin was super clean. The isolated location outside Denali was perfect. Although the gas fireplaces were not working, the host apologized and offered a small refund. (btw, still waiting for what we were offered.) Thanks.
