About this property

Clean & quiet cabin with stunning mountain views

Our little cabin is nestled among the trees but not far from all the conveniences of town. Located 13 miles north of the Denali National Park entrance and only 2 miles from the grocery store, local restaurants, bank and gas stations.
Come home to the peaceful cabin after a long day in the park and relax on the spacious deck while listening to the birds or soaking in the mountain views. The kitchen has all of the necessary items to cook up a home-cooked meal and is fully furnished with a stove, microwave, toaster and full size refrigerator. A BBQ grill is also available if you prefer to grill outside on the deck.

The cabin is small (600sq ft) but well laid out for a family. With a queen bedroom, a set of bunk beds and a sofa sleeper that can accommodate 5-6 people. Clean, newly renovated bathroom includes rain shower head, new vanity with large mirror.

Amenities include fully equipped kitchen with pots, pans and dishes, microwave, coffee maker & filters, oven, refrigerator, propane grill, and streaming WiFi.

Depending on the time of year you visit, don't be surprised if you wake to a moose and her calf in the yard. We often have early morning or late night visitors helping themselves to the willow in our yard!

A piece of heaven while your feet stay on the ground!
Being at The Nest beginning the 3rd of September for a week was perfect. The landscape was ablaze with fall colors, and the tops of the mountains began to be covered in snow. Looking out the front window was like looking at a painting!! On our first night there we were greeted by a large cow moose wandering past the front deck. The cabin was warm, cozy, private, and had all that we needed to be comfortable. Denali National Park is just a short drive. You will not be disappointed if you choose to stay here!! Patty from Maine

Had a great time at The Nest. It was a great location for trips into the park and dinners out. Loved sitting out on the deck when the weather was warm. Denali and the surrounding area are unbelievable.

Cozy and beautiful
The main bed in this cabin is like a dream- I need to buy one for myself! We were 03 adults and stayed comfortably in this unit. The view is beautiful, the space immaculately clean, everything well stocked and well appointed. Would 100% stay here again.

Perfect cabin for adventures in Denali
My family stayed here for two nights, while visiting the area to explore Denali National Park. The cabin was immaculately clean, and a perfect place to unwind after long days outside. The cost was reasonable, and we were happy to be in a cosy cabin like this, surrounded by trees, rather than at one of the touristy places just outside the park. Just a few minutes drive from the grocery store, and other places to eat nearby. Would highly recommend!

Had an absolutely wonderful time staying at this charming cabin overlooking the beautiful mountains. Rest assured this Cabin has it all and is in proximity to Denali national Park, supermarkets, gas stations, and restaurants. You could not pick a better option for your stay in Denali. Communication with the owner was wonderful from Start to finish. I would definitely recommend this wonderful little cabin to anybody planning a trip in Denali.

Excellent location and use of space
We had a large group staying at 2 different properties. This was quiet and a great spot for my parents to have their own getaway from the larger group. Clean and easy to access. Host was very helpful with local recommendations as well.

This is a beautiful, clean, well-equipped, updated, private cabin with a stellar view off the front deck. Although it only has 1 bedroom, it was perfect that everyone in my "girl's trip" group had their own bed (twin bunk, pullout queen sofa bed and queen in the bedroom). The kitchen had all we needed to prepare meals and there is a large, updated bathroom. Plenty of hot water - though we tried to use resources wisely. Easy to locate with "nest" and flowers at driveway - make sure you follow directions from host. Close driving distance to local grocery store/gas and a few restaurants. Only 10 mile drive to Denali Park entrance, more restaurants and shops. We highly recommend this cabin and host!

Cozy cabin in Healy
Really appreciated the location. Close enough to Denali but in a calm and serene location. Lovely deck and lots of bed space. Didn’t need anything from the host but they were very communicative prior to our stay. My only suggestion would be more window shades/curtains. During summmer, lots of light comes in through the front door and the window by the restroom. Makes the bunk beds pretty bright most of the night. A sleep mask helps!

Incredible Cabin
My husband and I along with our 2 sons ages 11, and 13 stayed at the cabin. It is super adorable and looks just like the pictures. It is about 15 minutes from Deanli National Park and along the way you pass a small shopping area with gift shops, restaurants and adventure companies. It is also only 5 minutes from the grocery store, gas station, laundry facilities and 49th State Brewing which we ate at often because the food was awesome. During out stay, we hiked multiple trails, ziplined, whitewater rafted, etc. but we also enjoyed our time at the cabin, walking around the cabin, hanging out at Otto Lake (which is amazingly beautiful). This cabin was the perfect spot for all our adventures and I would definitely stay here again if I ever have the opportunity to visit Healy again.

Quiet and Secluded Cabin with Great Views
The house is only about 15 minutes from Denali National Park and comfortably suited our family of 4 with all the amenities we needed for our stay. House was super clean and nicely furnished.

Lovely View
My husband and I stayed at the cabin with our two adult children very comfortably. The space was very, very clean and cozy and quiet with a gorgeous view. We visited Denali National Park while we were there and it was only about a 15 minute drive. We ate at the Black Diamond Cafe down the street as well as the Thai food truck in town and they did not disappoint. It was nice to be away from the crowds of the Canyon area, especially at meal times. There is a nice grocery store nearby that we used as well. The pictures of the cabin give a good accurate portrayal of the property. I highly recommend this cabin. Thankful for our time there.

The Nest was a wonderful Cabin
We enjoyed our time at The Nest. It was clean and oh so cozy. The surrounding area was pretty and very quiet. It felt like we were on top of a mountain all alone. It was wonderful. The cabin was well appointed and was exactly as described. Katherine was easy to communicate with and responded to any questions very quickly. If we are ever in Healy, AK we will stay here again!

What makes this property unique

This cabin feels like it's miles away from anywhere, but it's conveniently located near Healy and Denali National Park. We could sit on the deck all day and soak up the mountains views.
