    Our stay was fantastic! The rental was very clean and comfortable. Host was very responsive. The shed with the lake toys was very clean and well kept. Paddle-boarding on the lake with a clear view of Denali was our favorite part of our vacation!

    This was such an incredible place to stay! The host greeted us with fresh blueberries and raspberries, there was fresh bread and eggs waiting inside, we were treated to the northern lights, and we saw some beautiful birds through the telescope! The property was gorgeous, the hosts were overly gracious with their hospitality, and we got to see Denali while taking one of their several kayaks out in the lake. It is a must stay if you’re in the area!

    Fantastic views of Scotti Lake and Denali beyond. Great outside covered deck with chairs and grill. The owner was very responsive and helpful. Amazing resin epoxy bathroom floor made of tree branch slices. Hope to be back again.

    This place was amazing, had a great view of the lake and mountains. When you arrive you will have homemade bread and fresh eggs from her chickens that run around during the day. Its very peaceful and relaxing. We would 100% stay here again!

    The lakeside condo is amazing. Captivating view. Mackenzie is a doll providing fresh bread and eggs and even gave me the recipe for the bread. We didn't take advantage of the lake but next time. Our little one had a blast and it's definitely baby-friendly, with an unexpected baby gate for the stairwell. We were just planning to be hyper vigilant! The condo is super homey and we just loved everything about it. We even saw the Aurora borealis our last night. We would love to come back!

    This Denali Penthouse is fantastic and we had a great view of Mt Denali right from the balcony on a clear day. The local property Mgr was one of the best we've ever had via many VRBO bookings!
