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.

The spruce cottage was spacious, clean and had good amenities. Washer, dryer, laundry detergent, pans and dishes, a few snacks, and even milk and eggs in the fridge. I will definitely be staying here again the next time I am in the area.

A very nice, comfortable unit with two separate sleeping areas. Beautiful view in the surrounding with snow capped mountains. The hostess Linda is very responsive to inquires and accomodations with early checks in. Great value compare to other places we stayed on our Alaska trip. Will come back again if we are in the area.
