The property is a hidden gem within a short drive from the Denali National Park and all that the area has to offer.Located in a quiet area of Healy, the property is very well equipped with everything a traveller may need and much, much more.Well appointed bedrooms, spacious lounges, a fully stocked kitchen and Mama Moose and her calf in the back yard and you want for nothing.A really excellent property that I would recommend to anyone wanting a very comfortable stay while being able to easily access all the attractions on offer.

The location is perfect for seeing Denali. 49th state brewing is right around the road which was nice. The property is beautiful with tons of snowshoe hares running about. The home itself and furnishings are a bit dated compared to the cost. This might be in part due to limited options in the area. Ann was a lovely host, and it was easy to check in. The home was a good size for 6 adults. We would definitely consider staying here again in the future with a larger group.

This was our second place we stayed at in Alaska. The home is very spacious and has amazing views! On one night we were able to see moose. The hosts put out a salt lick and they were attracted to that. It was awesome seeing them. We had everything we needed. Denali National Park was just a short 20 minutes away. We would definitely stay again!!

It was a warm, comfortable house for our family. It was just perfect for our group of mom and dad, adult sons, daughter in-laws and grandchildren. Many comments were made about how comfortable and roomy the house was. It was very clean, had many amenities and had a spectacular view of the forest and mountains. We even saw a moose out back! I would highly recommend this house for a stay near beautiful Denali.

Our group really enjoyed this very comfortable and beautiful place to tour the Denali area. The grounds were absolutely stunning, especially the backyard, Mountain View’s. We did see a cow moose with her calf and so many Alaskan Snowshoe Hares in the three days we were there. We loved the furnishings and decor of the house, cleanliness, very comfortable spaces and beds. The views from the windows, especially in the dining room, was sublime! This place made our trip even more memorable.
