Great place to stay between Denali and Fairbanks. Secluded place; would be a great place for a group, just to stay put - and enjoy time inside the cozy cabin or outside - picnic or play outdoor games. Well maintained, and decent breakfast (bread and coffee). Open kitchen - so you can also cook for yourself.

Great lodge! It was very comfortable - both sharing the main rooms & the bedroom. Only 2 things missing in my mind….bottled water (the tap just didn’t taste or smell right) & a recycling bin for plastic.
