We actually stayed here in April 2023 and had such a great experience that when we had the opportunity to come to Alaska I knew that I wanted to book here again. The host is very responsive. The cabin is clean and very well appointed. Love the washer and dryer!!

The cabin was very clean and the bed was quite comfy. The kitchen was well furnished. There were even enough eggs and milk for our breakfast along with coffee/ tea options. Granola bars and a few snack paks were a welcome treat. Great views of surrounding mts and atv tours are available at the office.

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.

The best cabin to stay. Beautifully located in the valley surrounded by gorgeous mountains, gated community, rooms had breathtaking views, cottages equipped with very modern amenities, breakfast items were available, super clean. Linda and Ron the owners, were super friendly and welcoming. The property also has the wilderness tour office and outbound Heli rides to glacier which are available at discounted price for ABCC guests.

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.

Beautiful cottages with everything you need to be comfortable. I didn’t realize all the other adventure tours at this property, 4 wheelers, helicopter tours. Had I known I may have done that but had too much planned to make time. If in the area again would no doubt come back!

Very clean and nice lodging. Owners were great at communicating. Perfect base camp for anyone wanting to explore the valley and glacier. Only criticism would be that the tv in bedroom was not functioning. Not a big deal, would definitely stay again.
