Our secluded authentic Alaskan cabin is nestled in a rustic setting with spectacular mountain views. This private wooded property, boasting an off the grid driveway and plenty of wildlife, is walking distance to Otto Lake. This unique cabin is one of two cabins on our 8 acre property. Enjoy great fishing, swimming, and other water activities or stop at Black Diamond Resort for tundra golf, horse pulled wagon rides, ATV excursions, or fine dining.

Our quaint town of Healy is the hometo several unique dining experiences, an amazing coffee spot, local brewery, and so much more. Down the heart of the community is the Parks Highway, which takes you to an outdoor adventure at Denali National Park less than 15 minutes away.

The authentic Alaskan cabin has an open great room, with a queen hide-a-bed, a futon, and a built-in dining area. There is a queen blow-up mattress available that is able to sleep two guests in this area. The sitting room, with a twin day bed and an additional twin mattress, opens to a private patio. Up a steep stairs, which adds to the experience, leads to the loft bedroom. The loft has a comfortable full bed, a futon, exhilarating views, and additional amenities. The kitchen is full service, with fridge, sink, microwave and stove. Off the main entrance deck, the mountain views are beyond description. The bathroom offers a sink, a water conservation shower, and a waterless Separett toilet. However, for those truly desiring the full Alaskan experience, there is an “elite” outhouse out back as well. If your previous adventures have left you exhausted, not to worry…we will provide wireless Internet and Netflix.

    This felt like a true Alaskan experience! The host was very responsive with any questions we had. Everything was clean with great amenities for such a rustic cabin. We had a toddler with us so the travel crib and a few toys were a great addition. Will happily stay here in the future if we are in the area!

    We had a wonderful experience. Amazing views from the deck. Wonderful, charming cabin, full of history and unique detail - an authentic experience indeed. Very cosy and comfortable, very clean and well-equipped, with a large, spacious living room that we appreciated very much. All directions and instructions to and inside the cabin were very clear and easy to navigate. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and found it hard to leave behind. The host shared the history of the place with us and it is indeed special.

    Wonderful hosts, clean & cozy rooms just as they were described in the listing. The views were incredible and we really appreciated the written instructions throughout the cabin that helped us to be good stewards. The outhouse was a fun experience and the level of detail (hot teas, chocolates, stocked kitchen, etc.) were so thoughtful. We also loved learning about the history of the cabin. THANK YOU

    We loved every minute of our stay. The cabin is cozy and unique and the views are amazing! There was plenty of room for my family of four both inside and outside. The property is close to delicious restaurants, gas, and shopping while being secluded enough to give you a real Alaskan experience. Communication was excellent with the host and helpful instructions were provided inside the cabin. We would stay again.

    Cabin was clean and as advertised, nearer to Denali NP. Host Karla was great with prompt response and helpful. We all had a wonderful time and our main activity was spending time in Denali NP. This cabin on top of giving Alaskan cabin experience, also gives real camping feel and experience. This cabin will satisfy who wants to do camping but don’t have the needed equipment or experience. Highly recommend this place.

    In our opinion, this cabin is for younger people and families with children only. There is only 1 bigger bed in the loft, which is hard to get to. The steps are very narrow and steep. Also, this is the only comfortable bed. Down below are 2 Futons and one very soft and uncomfortable day bed. The outhouse has no door !!! Also, warm water for the shower is very limited and doesn't even lasts for 2 minutes. If you like to be accused of stealing towels, then this is the place for you.

    Charming cabin and comfortable stay for our family of 5. Well stocked place (including some fun games!), beautiful property, and easy access to Denali and area restaurants. The outhouse added to the Alaskan charm (there is an indoor bathroom, too)!

    A great, semi-historic cabin with a lot of very interesting history.There were four of us seniors (two related couples; 74-80 yrs old), and we thoroughly enjoyed the cabin, including the idiosyncrasies that come with an authentic Alaskan cabin.The owner was an excellent hostess and communicator.The cabin is well-located close to Mt McKinley (Denali) National Park and the associated retail tourist strip center; and we recommend the Totem Inn restaurant in Healy.All on all, we highly recommend this VRBO listing!

    This place is great! Initially the outhouse was daunting, but the cabin had running water and a very functional toilet alternative. It is so close to an amazing number of tours and activities in Healy and Denali was a quick drive down the highway with fantastic views all around. We stayed warm at night with the stove and played some intense games of Scrabble during the rain. The loft offered a great secluded spot for the kids to have their own space as well. Highly recommend!

    Delightful time! The cabin ambiance is warm (welcoming), relaxing, unique and clean. I had some concerns about the cabin being too rustic but it was ideal for our vacation with our kids and their cousins. Karla (host) was super responsive. We had one hitch which we tried to self solve and her response was “oh, I wish you would have called me sooner so I could have helped you quicker!” I received responses within minutes of messaging and Karla was proactive in messaging prior to our trip. The kids loved the loft, the games, the books, testing the outdoor bathroom. They watched a movie after a day of hiking the park while we enjoyed tea on the back porch-perfectly peacefully. We brought food with us to avoid 6 kids at a restaurant and we had all of the cooking utensils we needed-tray for roasting vegetables, toaster, square casserole dish for cinnamon rolls, in addition to pots and pans. The sheets and bedding were very clean as were the floors and carpet. We had a truly delightful time as a family and as listed-an authentic Alaska cabin experience! Perfect for an Alaska vacation AND we loved visiting Denali National Park-all of the views and hikes! Thank you Karla and Wade. If we have the privilege to come again-we will rebook with you!

    We LOVED our stay… the cabin for sure had that “Alaska feel” which is what we wanted. Secluded and peaceful. Amazing views. Communication with the host was wonderful.The only couple of issues we had were:Up in the loft is where the largest bed is, my husband is 6’2” and the bed placement was difficult for him as his feet hit the wall.Other issue was that the house wasn’t dark enough at night for us. All windows did have blinds but blackout curtains would have been a game changer. We were able to use sheets to drape over some of the windows which did help a lot.

    We really enjoyed the authentic Alaskan cabin experience. The location to Denali National Park and Healy was perfect. The views from the back deck were incredible. That is where we spent most of our time, even with a little rain (partially covered). The cabin was appointed.

    Such a cute, quirky little cabin! It was a perfect location for our visit to Otto Lake and Denali National Park. The grandkids enjoyed the loft sleeping area and exploring around the cabin grounds. The adults enjoyed the peaceful mornings and evenings on the porch. Beautiful view. Caught a moose sighting down the road.

    We didn't realize that we had stumbled onto a gem when we booked this cabin! We were so happy to feel like we had the place all to ourselves, surrounded by nature and scenery. The hosts were great at communicating from start to finish. We found the home perfect for all of our needs and was large enough to fit our large group. We especially appreciated the pack and play provided by the host. The best part of the cabin was the large deck where we spent hours enjoying the long days of summer in Alaska.

    We had a small reservation about the limited plumbing, but quickly embraced the uniqueness of the house and loved our stay. Our first night we had a visit from mommy moose with her two calves. It was so special! Then the next night there was an owl on the deck. We loved sitting outside and enjoying the view.This was an incredible place to stay while visiting Denali National Park! Thank you for a great place to stay, highly recommend!
