Great place to stay between Denali and Fairbanks. Secluded place; would be a great place for a group, just to stay put - and enjoy time inside the cozy cabin or outside - picnic or play outdoor games. Well maintained, and decent breakfast (bread and coffee). Open kitchen - so you can also cook for yourself.

Great lodge! It was very comfortable - both sharing the main rooms & the bedroom. Only 2 things missing in my mind….bottled water (the tap just didn’t taste or smell right) & a recycling bin for plastic.

Northern Sky Lodge is a beautifully quiet and peaceful place to stay. Convenient to Fairbanks and not far from Danali. Host Rex and Jess were friendly and able to share information on the area. It was nice to meet other travelers in the shared large kitchen and dining area.

Nice cozy Lodge
Nice place. You need to pay attention. A little sign that is hard to see off the side of the road to where you need to turn. Cute inside. Everyone shares the living room and kitchen. There was a nice continental breakfast. Bed was a little soft. Shoes off when you come inside. I think because there is carpet. Overall, it was a nice place to stay.
