Calling all outdoorsy people - experience the Alaska dream in an quaint, one room DRY (no running water) cabin perched on a ridge at the edge of Denali National Park. Stunning mountain views from the large picture window. Located close to the National Park, outside the commercial district, in a quiet residential neighborhood.

There is a kitchen counter, a mini fridge, and a 2-burner propane cook top for preparing meals. Dishes, silverware, pans, and a coffee/tea bar provided. Paper towels, dish soap, towel and sponge are also provided.

To ensure you’ll get a good nights sleep before heading out on your Denali adventures, you will have your choice between sleeping on the comfortable full sized futon on the main floor, or climbing the ladder to the loft where you’ll find a full sized new memory foam mattress upstairs (and blackout curtains). Bed linens are provided.

Maximum occupancy is 2 people. Enjoy the books and board games - there is no TV, but we have high speed Starlink internet!

The home is located a mile off the Parks Highway, just a 10 mile drive to the Denali Park Visitor Center and the train depot, and the main hotel/restaurant and shopping zone. A few restaurants are located within two miles, as is the trailheads for the popular Triple Lakes and Nenana River hikes (no fishing license required inside the park).

Guest Access
If you plan to arrive by train to Denali, you will need a rental car to get around the local area and to our house. Keys to Denali and Alaska Auto Rental located locally in Healy offers rental vehicles and railroad depot pick-up and drop-offs. Be sure to book in advance. The 1.5 mile road from the highway to our house is a maintained gravel road. It should not pose any problem for any vehicle.

Guest Interaction
We live close by. You can reach us by text or phone, and we are available to answer questions or offer advice on the local area.

Other things to note
With an amazing view into the Park, this cabin is cute and comfortable, but rustic! To make clear what the cabin provides and does not…

There is NO indoor plumbing, but we supply several jugs of drinking water.
There is electricity, mini fridge, two burner cook top, and a clean, instagramable outhouse!
Showers are available at the Riley Creek Mercantile, located 10 miles from the cabin, at the entrance to Denali Park, 7am - 11pm and cost $5 for 10 minutes. We provide towels.
Please don't smoke inside. Smoke whatever you have outside.

    Excellent stay. The pictures are exactly what it’s like. Shower worked well, outhouse did what it needed to do, appliances were as advertised. And just 15 minutes from Denali. A stay doesn’t get much more awesome than this.

    I was lucky to get this booking. Simple and small. The outdoor shower and outhouse was no problem at all - very clean and well thought out. I recommend this place for your Denali stay.

    Great spot to getaway for a weekend in Denali. Short drive to the national park. Loved the cleanliness of the outhouse.

    This cabin worked out very well for my wife and me for two nights while we visited Denali NP and the surrounding area. We wanted to be close to nature and away from the tourist scene and this fit that perfectly!
