Only "window" on creekside was a sliding door that had not screen so choice was no breeze, no creek sounds, and therefore no mosquitos OR all 3 in the cabin. Otherwise generally comfortable and clean.

Great stay
Amazing stay with a great cafe on grounds. Creek flowing by beautiful area all around. Staff for cabins and cafe were top notch! Drive to Denali park about 10 miles - our cabin was an individual so privacy was perfect. We loved our stay here!

The only issue was the wait staff in the cafe wasn’t very friendly. We ate there 3 times, had a different waitress each time and none of them were very pleasant.

What a wonderful place to stay. Quiet, scenic, restaurant on site was good and reasonable, staff very friendly and helpful! Nice areas to walk around, family games, creek & Mountain View. No TV, internet, phone service or radio so you can enjoy the beauty of nature with no interruptions. Spacious porch with table and chairs to enjoy outside I would plan my next trip around their availability. There was a fire at Denali that shut down the neighboring town so they were quite busy but handled it very well.
