Denali Borough Vacation Packages

Nice for one night. Felt safe and it was convenient for our purpose.

Place is cool, not your ordinary hotel

This is a unique property. You enter in a vestibule, so bring all your stuff in 1st. You remove your shoes inside the mud room area before the living room. You cant access your room from outside. On the 1st floor, the bedrooms are down a hall past the common area of a small living room and large Kitchen/eating space with lots of windows. The place clean and tidy. A work in progress for Rex and his partner. We got Room #4 We had a double Bed room, my bed was great. big pillows. Didn't know that to watch TV you will need to go to the common area. No Big Deal. There was only one other couple there and they weren't interested in watching TV, nor were we really. My friend i was with, didnt like that the open jars of jelly and peanut butter put out for the continental breakfast are all shared too. hopefully no one licks their knives or spoons before dipping. we washed our dishes, even tho there wasnt any direction to wash or leave, so we washed and left them on the drain board, picked up our garbage. There is a community refrig. to share or keep things to eat. There was milk in there that we used for coffee since we forgot to buy in town. The kitchen is large so if you are planning to make dinner or lunch it has everything. You just need to buy things in town. Due to clouds, we didn't see the northern lights, nor any wildlife, went dog sledding with Bob Cotter (great), to Chena hot springs, drove to Denali park, didn' see Denali either. Saw Santa in North Pole, It was an adventure.

The staff was friendly and the breakfast very good. The facility is a bit dated and tired and I would have preferred more firm bedding, but it was comfortable enough for a 3 night stay.
