Perfect spot to see the Aurora Borealis
Beautiful spot. Rustic of course. The road in is quite difficult. You need both the 4wd (which I had) and some offroading skills (which maybe I had less of). But Dave got us through it; picked us up inhis ATV and got our car out. If you do decide to try it yourself you need to commit to it. I got stuck because I was timid. Ideally get there before dark.

Quaint tiny home
The house was comfy. It’s very basic. The drive up was fun with 4 wheel drive an absolute necessity. Dave was very accommodating as I came in by mistake a day early. Denali is very close by. I saw the mountain:) Thanks again

The stay was amazing! We hiked to the lake on the property and saw three moose and felt like we were in actual Alaskan wilderness. The place was clean and had plenty of water in jugs for washing up and drinking

Secluded cabin
It is a great place to experience the Alaska wilderness with great mountain views. Dave greeted us when we arrived, and we were on our own after that. You definitely need an all-wheel drive vehicle to get up to the cabin. The cabin is equipped with the basic necessities for your stay.

Even if you have AWD or 4wd still have Dave take you up to the cabin, it's a narly road. I've lived in the interior of Alaska for 25 years and driven my share of steep dirt roads. The road up to the cabin was among the worst.

Denali area
Four wheel drive is pretty much a must if you want to drive your vehicle to the doorstep of the cabin w/ your luggage. Or it’s probably a 15 min. hike. We didn’t have that but Dave was super helpful in arranging a pickup w/ our gear. He gave us a ride up, & ride down to our vehicle the next morning. Rustic, but super quiet relaxing stay!

For those who have a deep appreciation for mountainous landscapes and the tranquility of nature, this place is a dream come true. Nestled at the peak of a mountain, just six miles from Healy, the cabin offers breathtaking views. On clear days, the majestic Denali is visible right from the cabin. The cabin itself is immaculate, equipped with a refrigerator and microwave for your convenience. The windows perfectly frame the stunning scenery, making every glance a picturesque moment. Dave, the host, is exceptional. His friendliness and readiness to assist enhance the overall experience. If you're seeking a private retreat with scenic views, look no further. This place has everything you could wish for!

great spot to experience alaska
This cabin was truly an Alaskan experience. The road up to the property is a bit rough but it’s worth it to see the views at the top! Cabin was cozy and you can tell the host put a lot of work into making it nice.

Enveloped in a Devine creation painted upon an all encompassing canvas….
Have you ever felt a special moment in time generated purely by breathing fresh air, and watching the seemingly random movement of the black spruce, and the delicate flutter of the aspen leaves, and the contrasting highlights of birch bark? Well… hang on to your hat. This is a great place to stay, as well as have access to anything or experience that you need to make for an incredible adventure. Dave will make you feel comfortable and leave you to make your experience what you wish it to be. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Thanks Dave!

This was such a cute cabin. Very secluded up on the top of a ridge (Daltons Ridge). There is a turn off for a different set of cabins, keep going up! The driveway is intimidating and steep… however we have a AWD Honda CRV, and as long as you keep going quickly up and dont stop, it was fine. It even made it up the driveway in the pouring rain. Once you get up there, its worth it. The cabin is cozy. Bring your own food if you want to… there is a microwave, no stove or grill. There is a fridge. There is spotty wifi… but honestly i got the best service in the outhouse lol! The walk to the lake is more like 30 mins, but totally worth it. In the morning right around dawn i got up to use the outhouse, and there was a cow and calf moose walking around grazing in the woods, and by early morning they had actually both bedded down in the clearing next to our cabin! The views of the mountains were really good. The loft is a little cramped with the 2 beds… but it wasnt horrible. I almost think one of the beds could probably go downstairs and there would be better room… but as long as you make sure not to bump your head on the ceiling at night, you’ll be fine. The loft stays nice and warm, we didnt turn the heat up past 66, and even at that i woke up sweating. Dave said that if we wernt able to make it up the hill with the car he would come down and get us with his side by side, so just chat with him about that before hand if you only have a 2wd, he seems super accommodating.

A perfect cabin!
As soon as we arrived, we knew that we should have planned to stay longer. The cabin was perfect--comfortable while still feeling a bit wild. The property was gorgeous, with a picturesque lake a short distance away. Dave was excellent to communicate with, being super helpful when we had questions and then giving us our space otherwise. If I ever go back to Alaska, I'd try to book here for the duration of my stay!

We decided to forego the reservation of two nights, as it’s very dangerous to drive up to the cabin. Ended up with wasting the reservation. The location on the map of the app is erroneous and the disclosed 15-minute to the park is completely off. The distance is instead 30-minute drive away. The worst cabin among all places we stayed in Anchorage, Talkeetna, Denali, and Fairbanks during this trip!
