Reviews

The lodge and the property were well thought out. The grounds were beautiful. The room was lovely and comfortable. What was the most impressive was the view. We were lucky enough to be pay off the 30%. The views of the mountain were amazing!

Beautiful views
-
The room was pleasant, very clean & the en-suite shower room very good. The room was slightly dark due to the woodland setting but this was a positive as the room remained cool. There is no A/C or fridge within the room. There was an ice machine, vending machine & washer/drier if needed on the ground floor. The setting of this lodge is magnificent with amazing views of Denali from the deck. The snack food was excellent as was the coffee shop. We didn’t dine at the lodge apart from a snack & coffee. I would definitely recommend this lodge.
-
It isn’t necessary close to Denali town, but only a 90 minute drive. Restaurants were great on site. We would stay there again, just a beautiful property
-
Absolutely a beautiful location and charming property. Seeing the Denali range on a clear day was an experience.
-
Bar closes too early, being that resort is in a remote area and nothing nearby. Front desk staff is great. I would not stay here again, since everything closes down around 9:30
-
Beautiful property. Everything was good.
-
Rooms are decent, the bedding was a bit scratchy. The campus is tucked in the woods so it’s very peaceful. The food at the hotel restaurants are OK, nothing special. The hotel is a good 2 hours away from the Denali park entrance, in case you’re driving yourself like we did.
-
Busy place with tour buses and crowds. so no room at the 1 nice restaurant without reservations. Food at pub was mediocre, but the staff was excellent,
-
The staff also led educational tours but we didn't stay long enough to take advantage of that. Easy 2 hour drive from the hotel to Denali National Park. We went to the park twice. Highly recommend this gem!
-
The property is awesome, clean, with many amenities. Other than front desk staff activeness, and behavior, which felt like they are tired, multiple times whenever we visited.
-
I like that the lodge was somewhat isolated. The staff were very helpful. Also the view was great.
-
Staff were very helpful, room was very clean
-
Clean rooms. Amazing views of Mt. Denali
-
This is a fantastic place. We were independent guests, not in a tour. The buildings and grounds are beautifully maintained. The room was excellent, as was the restaurant. We were fortunate to get an excellent view of Mt. Denali right from their grounds. All that, and quite reasonably priced.
-
Room was clean and property was well maintained. Limited dining options.
-
A disappointing experience.
-
No fridge and the staff didn't help with some items I had. Windows didn't have Mosquito screen. No fitness room.
-
The lodge is a really lovely facility perfect for viewing Denali and it’s peak when the weather is wonderful. There is a limited activities for younger people, but we did really appreciate the fire pit and the lovely s’mores kits that were available.

Perfect little weekend getaway. I was not staying as part of a cruise, but the cruise vibe made the stay feel so much more relaxing. I was still welcomed with a smile and the staff at the property were super friendly. The food was decent, a bit on the pricier side, but understandable given the location. The rooms were a bit dated but still comfortable. Overall, it was a great experience and I’d likely go back if I was headed back up north.
