About this property

Earthsong Lodge - STAND

EarthSong Lodge provides an opportunity for Denali Park visitors to have a unique, authentic place to stay overnight while visiting the National Park. Located four miles out Stampede Road (from "Into The Wild" fame), EarthSong is above treeline on open tundra, with unobstructed views of the Alaska Range. It's the perfect spot for guests who wish for a quiet, spectacular place to sleep, and have accommodations that are more than just a bed and bathroom. Log cabins are well-apportioned and have modern conveniences, spaced for privacy. On-site guests can enjoy some extra amenities, such as our coffeehouse. EarthSong is for the visitor that wants just a bit more from their visit.
Standard cabins have one double bed and bathroom, and are perfect for the solo traveler or couple. Each cabin has bathroom with modern facilities, individual hot water heater, nice towels, extra pillows, and more to make your stay comfortable. Cabins are also insulated and heated for the cooler nights. All cabins have either private or shared porches. While there are no cooking facilities in the cabins, there is a shared kiosk where guests have access to fridge and microwave. Most cabins are log, all hand-built and unique, and have nice mix of authentic and comfort, with a high level of cleanliness. Daily service available.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Cute cabin in great area near Denali Park. This is a great location if you want to be near the park without being in the touristy area right outside of the park. Breakfast at the cafe on-site was fantastic. Check in was easy. Our night there was quiet and comfortable. Would stay here again!

My sister and I loved our two night stay at EarthSong. The cabins are clean, quiet and comfortable. The property is beautiful; mountain backdrops, colorful yards with flowers, trees, and cozy spots dining spots to sit outside and read a book. They provide a community kitchen for coffee, refrigeration and microwave. We really enjoyed our stay there.

Lovely individual cabin away from the busy Park

This cabin was 20 miles away from Denali National Park in a quiet area 4 miles off the main highway. Very nice cabin that was clean and comfortable. Out in nature to enjoy the peaceful surroundings but the comfort of home. Comfortable bed. A great place to relax after a long busy day at the Park. The coffee shop has great made to order breakfast. Thanks for the wonderful stay!

Thanks Martha for the great review. We've battled our wifi issues for a while, and this summer is no exception. When the provider technicians come out and work for hours and still can't figure things out, you know it's a bit beyond our control! Our wifi is usually just fine on the property, and is back up again but unfortunately it wasn't when you are around. Glad you were still able to have a good time!

Wonderful spot

Highly recommend. We were lucky enough to get cabin 14 which was a little separated from the rest of the bunch. We were also right by the coffee house! Everything was wonderful including the ease of check-in and location. The space is perfect for two people and we have no complaints. My only recommendation would be if you have a sensitive neck like me, consider bringing your own pillow! Will definitely stay again on our next visit.

Perfect!

We loved staying away from the crowds, but still close to the park. The staff was warm, attentive, friendly, and gave us great tips about extra hikes and sites. We felt like personal guests. Ty knew our names and asked about details of our trip each day. Henry’s coffeehouse provided a great breakfast each day before we set out on our adventures, and having the option to request a packed lunch as well as access to other food was a great perk. There were so many great indoor and outdoor spaces to sit and enjoy nature. It was exactly the home-base we wanted while exploring the beauty of Alaska!

Quirky but comfortable.

It was clean and quite. The bed was comfortable. Odd things like the floor is uneven and pretty small shower but there was hot water and a flush toilet. Here in Alaska I've learned to celebrate the little things. The first night I heard a pack of wolves in the distance obviously either catching prey or fighting over the kill. Pretty cool... and eerie!

Hi Douglass, thanks for the kind review. Living on the open permafrost tundra above treeline comes with some unique challenges, and level floors are one of them! We are surrounded by state land, which in turn is surrounded on three sides by National Park land. And the state land is known as the Wolf Townships. Not surprised that you heard wolves...

Clean but a few small issues

The cabin itself was very clean and had what we needed for our stay. The only issues we had were there were yellow jackets in our cabin upon arrival. There were signs posted saying there was a issue with yellow jackets right now and to make sure we did not leave the door open too long. The yellow jackets were already in our room when we got there. Once we were able to get them out we did not have another issue with this. The only other thing that was an issue is the sheets were too small for the bed and the fitted sheet would come off while we were sleeping. Other than that the cabin and location were good.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 Aug 2021
Thank you Megan for the nice review. In my 35 years in this immediate area I have never seen the yellow jacket problem even close to this summer, and it's due to the winter and summer weather we've been having. We will have a better plan in place to deal with them if we get the "perfect storm" of conditions that led to their population explosion this summer for 2022. I do apologize for the bed sheet issue, it seems our new housekeeper put the wrong size on your bed. It's not a mistake that will happen again! Glad you had a good stay and we hope to see you in the future. Jon Nierenberg Owner, EarthSong Lodge

About the host

Hosted by Jon Nierenberg

Host profile image

Jon and Karin Nierenberg own EarthSong Lodge, and built everything on the property. Ex-park ranger and dog sled guide and expedition leader, Jon has been in this area since 1982, homesteading just a few miles north of the lodge. Karin moved to Alaska in 1990, and together they built the lodge in 1996. Both have a love of the area and Alaska, and the lodge is a way to share that love of the park with guests from all over the world.

Why they chose this property

We built the lodge because we love the area and Alaska, and enjoy sharing our love of the park with people from across the globe.

What makes this property unique

Staying at EarthSong allows a visitor to get the best from their short visit to Denali, and have accommodations that are more than just a bed to sleep in. Rather, EarthSong has been an important part of our past guests stay. Our staff is well-versed on the park, and are happy to help guests plan activities from hiking to rafting to flightseeing. Our sled dog kennels have been a consistent favorite and are the best sled dogs in the state. We are more than just a few cabins, but rather an experience, and one that is uniquely Alaskan.
