The cabin was very clean and the bed was quite comfy. The kitchen was well furnished. There were even enough eggs and milk for our breakfast along with coffee/ tea options. Granola bars and a few snack paks were a welcome treat. Great views of surrounding mts and atv tours are available at the office.

Beautiful location, very nice and spacious cabins, pretty clean. The downside is I rented a cabin with three beds, why one earth would you charge extra for more than two people ? Very odd when it’s a cabin made for at LEAST three people. Make your price up front and don’t sandbag extra charges.

The host, Lina is great! She & her husband are quite responsive and helpful. They kept their words - whatever they offered before check-in, they provided and kept the promise. They also provided pre-served breakfast which we didn't expect. We are super happy staying in their cottage - wonderful experience! Thank YOU both.

The cottage is spacious and convenient with a kitchen stocked with milk, eggs, oatmeal, trail bars, enough for a good breakfast. It’s very quiet and peaceful, just a little remote, but not too bad.

Cute, well put together cabin. Easy access and parking next to cabin. Beautiful scenery. The only thing I would add is a short stick with a hook to lower bshades over the bed.

Here's an edited version of your review: This Alaskan cottage is the ideal stop on the way to Denali. The space is immaculate and tastefully decorated, creating a cozy, cabin-in-the-woods atmosphere. Matti was quick to respond to my messages, and the breakfast items provided were a thoughtful touch. With plenty of room for our family of five, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
