Denali Wildlife Caribou Cabin Luxury with a touch of Rustic..
NEW BUILD FOR 2019! 27 Peaceful ACRES, on OTTO LAKE and the base of MT HEALY
NEW BUILD READY for 2019 summer season! Denali Wildlife Caribou Cabin,, just 10 miles north of Denali National Park and 3 miles south to our quaint town of Healy. We are a little over a mile off the Parks Highway, most of that private road - watch for the moose they will probably be standing in the road watching you. We sit tucked away on 27 wooded acres surrounded by state land, at the base of Mt Healy and Otto Lake. With the seclusion, tranquil privacy and the amazing panoramic mountain views you get the "Alaska Wilderness" feeling that so many people worldwide come to our beautiful state hoping to find. With great hiking and Otto Lake right out your door, the abundance of wildlife that comes thru at any given time,, moose, caribou, Alaska hare, red fox, wolves, bear, owls. Don't be surprised if your sitting on your deck taking in the awesome views in the evening and you hear a wolf howling or the sound of owls - hoot back at the owls and they'll respond! The Caribou Cabin is one of several situated on our tranquil wooded acreage, all are studio style cabins themed after wildlife in Denali National Park, new and built this winter/spring. They are luxury with a touch of rustic, so whether you head down to Glitter Gulch to do some shopping, go out your cabin door on a wilderness hike, picnic by the lake, or on your deck, BBQ (charcoal and propane provided) or sit by the fire ring relaxing ( firewood provided), roasting marshmallows to make smores (everything you'll need will be in the pantry :)). We designed and built our cabins with your comfort and relaxation in mind,,,,, each cabin has 2 plush queen pillow top beds, therapeutic pillows (that won't give you a neck ache) ceiling fans when you want that slight breeze in your room, Italian Tile and hard wood flooring, nice dining room table to eat on and play games on, kitchenette's that have microwaves, refrigerators/freezers, keurig coffee makers, toasters, sinks, dish soap and kitchen towels also a few other small kitchen appliances, but they DO NOT have stoves in them. They have big showers, soap, shampoo, conditioner and nice thick towels, I look forward to making your Alaska trip a relaxing, memorable one. I will email you detailed driving directions and the key code for the key-less entry key pad 30 days prior to your arrival

Cabin is perfect for a couple or small family. Very clean with all the needed necessities. Views around the property are breathtaking. Next time staying longer. Smores kits provided!
The location was fabulous! Saw a moose every day we stayed. Walked the path to the river. It is absolutely beautiful! Our cabin was wonderful. Very comfortable beds. We actually wished we could have stayed longer. Great place to stay for visiting Denali Park.
This was the perfect spot to explore Denali National Park from!

We had a fantastic time during our stay. It was incredible to see a moose right outside our cabin. The cabin was exceptionally clean, and Lacy was incredibly friendly and helpful
Beautiful and extremely well built and maintained cabin located in Alaskan wilderness plus all the comforts of home including great internet and TV connections. Highly recommend staying here if visiting Denali NP.
Great stay at Caribou cabin! Plenty of space and good location. Secluded but close enough to surrounding activities. Wonderful host and beautiful setting! Highly recommend!
The property was well stocked and only a 15 minute drive to the Denali entrance! I would definitely stay there again!!!

Cozy, comfortable cabin, beautiful area, and close to Denali park. Owner is very helpful and kind, cabin was super clean and kitchen was well stocked. We heard wolves close by one night and saw the northern lights later that same evening. Would definitely stay here again.
We stayed at these lovely cabins near Healy and really enjoyed having a beautiful lake to walk to and being so close to Denali! The drive was easy and LaCie’s directions were perfect. Stay here if you are more into glamping.
A very stunning place. Tucked away by its self with wildlife and beautiful views. Very clean and well furnished cabin. I perfect place for me and my wife’s get away. We could have stayed there for months. We loved it !!!
The cabins (we stayed in Caribou) were beautifully made and perfectly located for getting into and out of Denali every day for any adventures you want to get to in the park. About a 15 min drive to the entrance and right on the edge of the town of Healy for any groceries/items you might need. Lacie was very welcoming and the views from the cabin/everything it is outfitted with make it perfect for hosting a family/friends trip in which you can grill out and have a blast.
Easy check in and out, no issues at all. Nice setting, quiet, away from the road, w other cabins closeby. A good location for Denali park and restaurants in Healy. The place was clean but did smell strongly of cleaning products. The posted rules about sorting towels and sheets before leaving were a bit much
Exactly how it was listed. High end everything with a rustic wilderness setting. Close to Denali. Just like it is listed there is no stove or cooktop. Great beds and shower is top notch.
The cabin we stayed in was the Caribou. It was recently built within the last few years and is in pristine condition. The location of the property is fantastic, and is wonderful for those that want to get off of the beaten path and away from the institutionalized tourist approach. The hosts were very accommodating, and we enjoyed speaking with them about local tidbits, as well as getting to know them. The owners are hard-working, and will certainly do what they can to make sure that if you have anything that needs attention, they will be there.
This was the cleanest rental (hotel, VRBO, etc) we have ever had. It was clearly updated and very well maintained. The owner was friendly and very responsive. She made sure we were comfortable during the recent Alaskan heat wave and brought us a fan. AC was not needed as the windows drew the breeze right through the cabin. We wish we had time to explore the lake (just a short walk). They provide everything needed for a bonfire, including s’mores ingredients, but given the aforementioned heat wave, we did not light one. If we ever get to return to Denali, we would definitely stay here again. It was maybe 10 minutes from Denali NP. After driving through Glitter Gulch, it was so nice to be away from all the congestion and humanity and back in the country!
The property was easy to find and the driveway from the main road gives you an off the beaten path feel. The cottages are spaced apart so you have good privacy. Inside everything is clean and modern. Beds are comfy. Blinds do a decent job blocking out the midnight sun. While the kitchenette doesn’t have a stove/oven we were able to make really good meals on the gas grill provided by the owners. Views of surrounding mountains are beautiful and there is pretty lake you can walk to that is on the property. I highly recommend this as a base camp for visiting Denali area and we would stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Lacie Bennett
Hello! My name is Lacie and my husband is Andy. We moved to Alaska in Feb 2011 from Montana for Andy's job and to enjoy the Alaskan outdoor lifestyle of hunting and fishing. We attend and I'm active in my church in Healy. I've worked internationally in the customer service/sales industry for over 18 yrs, God blessed me by putting so many awesome people in my life that made my travels amazing. I have always said when I was done traveling I wanted to open a business were I would still meet people from all over and make their travel memorable. Andy is a generational master builder (log and stick) by trade so when we moved here to Alaska everything started falling into place, God blessed us with our home that's on 27 wooded acres, surrounded by state land, at the base of MT Healy and sits on Otto Lake, feels so calming and peaceful. Perfect place for people to come see our beautiful state and get that "Alaska feeling" that they hope to find. IT'S TRUE "ALASKA IS THE LAST FRONTIER" there's nothing like it. come check it out, you'll be glad you did
Why they chose this property
We bought this property because we enjoy the outdoors, being close to everything and yet we have privacy :)) the lake, hiking trails, the amazing views, being able to walk out on our deck and breathe in that crisp clean air with the peace and solitude that surrounds us ...... we live the Alaska dream every day :))) and we want to share it with you :))
What makes this property unique
We are unique and different because of were we are :) there are no neighbors except our other cabins, we are on 27 beautiful secluded wooded acres on Otto Lake with fishing, picnicking, hiking trails all right out your door, the views are amazing, you will get that Alaska wilderness feel you came here for and still only 3 miles from Healy with a Grocery store, restaurants a bank, health clinic, post office, auto parts store and churches. Then you go south about 8 miles to Glitter Gulch and you have more restaurants, gift shops that have everything you can want to buy for people back home and about 2 more miles your at the parks entrance ;)). You will love it here and I will be available to answer any questions..
