Actual Perfection

You will feel like you are borrowing a friend’s home that is just a short drive to Denali National Park.We had everything we needed from a well appointed kitchen to a super cozy living room and more. While the description and pictures of this home are very accurate, you just have to see these views for yourself. If you are looking for a homebase while you enjoy the park, this is it.

Denali getaway

This property had all the amenities you would want to experience a relaxing vacation in Alaska. The proximity to Denali National park was very convenient and allowed for easy day trips. Then returned to relax in the hot tub with mountain views, campfire under the midnight sun, paddle boat on the tranquil Lake.Highly recommend!!
