“Into the wild”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2010

We choose Denali River Cabin to stay "into the wild" with affordable price and basic services.
Cabins are quite basic but furnished with all you can need for a vacation "into the wild". Cabins are not no secluded as I thought going through their website but nevertheless we were fine on our cabin River front.
The owners can provide different services (we booked their full-day tour to Denali Park), continental breakfast is included and the location is just few miles from the Park entrance.

“Fair Value for $$”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2010

Based on the prices other places were charging, this was a fine place to stay. Cabins were small, but we weren't here to hang out inside. We had great view of river & mountains and we didn't have any noise problems. Staff was helpful and courteous, very friendly. Transportation was a little confusing, but it worked out. Glad that we stayed there instead of "in town" which was pretty over-run with tacky touristy places and too much traffic.

“Just the facts...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2010

An O.K. place to stay, but these were some of the problems areas we saw:

-No early check-in, not even if its two hours prior to the check-in time of 3 PM
-no soap in shower dispenser, remove it if your not going to fill it!
-no aerator on sink. splash, splash, splash!
-very small shower head

All in all, these are not critical items, but still they should be looked at!

“Perfect setting for a murder mystery”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2010

The property staff was great. However, the cabins need major updating. The bathroom sink is in the sleeping area causing a person to walk around the room with dirty hands. There is a strong sewer smell around the #20 rooms. There is not much to do by the cabins.

“Nice rustic spot”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 August 2010

I cannot add much to the earlier reviews. Most reviews described the accommodations accurately. Next to the highway (some noise), half doors, long walkways, etc. Two beds, small bathroom. Was an enjoyable stay, and very nice to be away from Glitter Gulch and all that hoopla, but you can still take the hotel's free shuttle into town if desired.

I really enjoyed the cabins proximity to the Triple Lakes hiking trail into Denali. The trailhead is only 1/4 mile from the cabins, across the bridge on the highway.
