About this property

Lake House Family Retreat @ Denali Nat'l Park. Hot

About this space
Living on the Lake in Alaska. Massive picture windows with panoramic views.
The space
Beautiful lakeside home with gorgeous panoramic views of Otto Lake and the Alaska Range. 15 minutes from the Denali National Park entrance. Private dock w/ kayaks and paddle boards, fire pit, horseshoes and Hot Tub, 3 decks, BBQ.
Come live the Alaskan Dream in our 5-Bedroom Lake Front Home. With pristine mountain views and an abundance of wildlife, beautiful Otto Lake is where you want to be. Situated right along Denali National Parks Boundary, and a short 15-minute drive to the Park Entrance, you can’t find a better location.
As soon as you arrive you will know you made the right choice for your group.
Enjoy a cocktail in our lakeside hot tub or on the dock. Amazing bird view and great Northern lights starting in late August.
The upstairs living room has massive picture windows offering panoramic views of the Alaska Range. Lounge in a hammock chair on one of our 3-outdoor decks. Head out to your private dock and go for a paddle board or kayak on one of our boats. Whip up a feast in our modern kitchen and dine with the whole family and enjoy the views from the large 12-person family dining table. After dinner go for a soak in our outdoor lake side Hot Tub and enjoy The Midnight Sun with a delicious beverage.
Our 2-acre property offers 250 feet of private lake front with a large grass yard, fire pit, horse shoes and a trampoline. Send the kids downstairs to our spacious downstairs living room to play some ping pong and darts or use the elliptical exercise machine, piano and large screen TV.
We regularly see wildlife on and around our property including lots of moose and an abundance of birds. Otto Lake is stocked with trout. Black Diamond Golf Resort is right around the corner. ATV, Zip-line, rafting, horseback riding and flight seeing are all nearby.
We are a short 2-minute drive to the small town of Healy which has a full grocery store, bars, restaurants and all services.
We are long time locals and experienced vacation rental operators with several rentals in the area. Feel free to contact us with any questions or advice you may need prior to arrival. On the bulletin board in our home you will find lots of brochures and menus to our favorite tour operators and restaurants. Our goal is to exceed your expectations. We understand your group is on the trip of a lifetime and we want our home to enhance your experience. Cleanliness is our #1 priority. We block the date after each stay so our housekeeping team has extra time to ensure everything is perfect.
Our house checks all the boxes:
High Speed WIFI, Direct TV/Smart TV's, BBQ (propane provided), Washer & Dryer (detergent provided), Well stocked kitchen, Shampoo/Conditioner/Body Wash/Hair Dryer are provided, High quality linens and towels are provided.
All of our furniture is brand new and all the mattresses are of the highest quality. Each of the 5-bedrooms have black out shades, screened windows and fans.
We always respect our guests privacy and offer self-check in. Our Amazing Property Manager Laura lives in the garage apartment in a separate building behind the house and is always available through text. The only time you will see her unrequested is for maintenance of the hot tub to ensure its cleanliness.
We truly hope your group enjoys its Alaskan Adventure.

Denali

We came to Alaska w 9 family members for my husband’s 60th birthday. It was on his bucket list to visit Denali. The house was really close to the park entrance and had a great view from the living room area. Plenty of room inside the house and the young adults enjoyed the downstairs area w ping pong table and the outdoor hot tub.

Deluxe work trip!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a very large house in a beautiful location. The views are spectacular and it was comfortable for a large group. We only had three so we didn’t really make the maximum use of the building, but it was well set up for group meetings, and such. It has a nice, hot tub and comfortable beds. Best of all it was very quiet at night. I hope to do a future work retreat here! So nice for an Alaskan to get to spend time in Denali at such a nice place.

Wow! A nature lover’s paradise!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Dave, Denise and Carissa,I wanted to thank you for sharing your home for part of our family’s journey. Our one regret is that we didn’t stay more than four nights! I was originally concerned that our three teenage grandsons would get bored and be on their devices a lot. That was an unnecessary worry as they loved the place and stayed so busy I rarely saw them on their phones. Here are a few (took 100’s) pics I took during our marvelous stay.

Amazing property

Our stay at the Lake House Family Retreat was absolutely amazing. The house is in a very quiet spot on Lake Otto with incredible views from both inside and outside the house. The house was clean, well maintained and nicely decorated. Lots of amenities, too numerous to list. Our host David was very responsive and made the check in and check out process easy. The home enhanced our family vacation and gave us great memories!
