Authentic Alaskan cabin experience near the heart of Denali

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. 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 home to 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 sleeper couches, 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 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. The loft has a comfortable full bed, 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, 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!

Convenient & Peaceful

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.

Authentic Experience

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!

Peaceful Home Away from the Bustle of Denali

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.

Cozy and rustic

Our family of 6 stayed here for 2 nights. It definitely has a rustic feel to it, but it was very clean and we were comfortable here. It's a nice short drive to Denali National Park.

Alaska Adventure

Our cabin experience was a treat! Karla shared the history of the cabin, which was comfortable, nicely decorated, and conveniently located near Denali. We enjoy “walk abouts” around the cabin, looking for evidence of wildlife, playing games which were generously supplied, and sleeping in comfort.

Great Location

Our family had a wonderful time at the cabin. The location was perfect for our trip to Fairbanks and Denali National Park. We even saw three moose on Hilltop Road! The cabin was also fun and unique, and we enjoyed sitting on the deck for the great view. Wade and Marla were also incredibly responsive and helpful. They’re awesome!

Alaskan Cabin in the Woods

We really enjoyed our stay here with our family (2 adults and 6 kids, ages 2-13). The cabin had plenty of room for our large family, the well-stocked kitchen was really helpful with being able to cook dinner, and everything was so well organized! The cabin is very well located for visits to Denali National Park, as well as various restaurants and a grocery store. We would highly recommend this cabin to others looking for an authentic Alaskan cabin experience.

Funky

Nice quiet place in the woods, a bit quirky, but I'd trade all that for having a moose and two calves come in the yard one night and the few of an Alaskan moonrise (15 minutes long)!

Lots of privacy and a good place to stay. Driveway a little rough but that is never an issue for me. Semi off the grid. I like that though.
