Utopia at Denali

There really are no worthy words for this place. If you plan to visit Denali you can rent this home with absolute confidence. It was positively immaculate and lacked nothing. My wife and I have VRBO’d all over North America and have never had a more satisfying experience. We both work like dogs in the lower 48 and needed a place to decompress and see this part of Alaska. We found it with this rental. The only real mistake we made was not making the stay a couple of days longer. Thank you for your hospitality and the opportunity! When they open the entire road in the park in 2025 we will be back!

Denali

I can’t say enough good things about our stay here. My wife and I stayed here with another couple for six days. We loved it from the time we arrived. We spent most of our time in Denali National Park which is only about 30 minutes from here. Our host, Kelly was very helpful and easy to work with from check in to check out. The house was beautiful, clean and comfortable with amazing views. We especially enjoyed sitting in the hot tub and viewing the mountains. This was our first trip to Alaska traveling from Wisconsin, and we would definitely come back here if we’re fortunate enough to visit Alaska again. I would recommend staying here to anyone visiting this area.

Why they chose this property

We feel this is one of the last remote get a way's left on the road system that has all the amenities of a big city. Whether you see moose, bears, caribou, sheep, the spectacular scenery, the 135 mile Denali highway or find yourself enjoying the lake at your doorstep, you will know you have found a special place in Alaska.

In the event your dates are booked, we have another VRBO at Mile post 229.5 miles of the Parks Highway within a mile of the southern entrance to Denali National Park. You may check this property out as well. It is called "Log Home on Denali Airstrip."
