This was a great place to stay, very close to Denali but quiet and no sign of the big tour bus hordes
It was close enough to Denali National Park and far enough to retreat from the place in the evening time.

This is an excellent lodge situated just 11 miles from the Denali State Park. There are shopping (Three Bears) and dining options even in the off season.
