The property was nice, but what stood out most was the staff they were outstanding. Our car had broken down and the town we were staying in was not very big so there were no mechanics surround however, the maintenance guy Logan took the time to get a new belt for us and repaired a car while we were out hiking Denali, Andres at the front desk found Logan for us and was very helpful. Can’t say enough about how great the staff there is.

We were here to visit Denali national park. The crows nest is only about 1 mile from the park entrance. So super convenient for our main goal. There are a ton of little shops, great eating establishments as well. The crows nest are individual cabins. They are not dry cabins, have hot water and a bathroom. They are definitely old, but have a fresh coat of paint. The restaurant on site has great service and good food but pricey. We tried a different place in Denali each night and never had a bad meal. But for coffee/breakfast highly recommend Black Bear down the hill. Over all we were satisfied with our stay!

Comfortable cabin, friendly staff. If you stay in the 300-500 numbered cabins, they are located on the side of a mountain, so you have to climb stairs to get to the restaurant or go to the shops in town.

Great location with respect to park access. Stretch 3 star lodging. Lodging is dated and due for a major renovation. The rooms are not level (i.e. if you put a marble on the floor, it will roll quickly to the other side). Carpet worn out. Fixtures in various states of disrepair. Faucets in the shower and sink are close to end of life. We didn't need AC with the windows open, but it would be hot sleeping if the weather was warmer, and there was some noise from other guests due to the open windows and close proximity of walkways and rooms. Restaurant was very good, as was the entire staff. For the price in this location during high season, it was OK, but our group (3 rooms) would look for a better alternative next time, even if the price was higher.

Clean cozy rooms with difficult access.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The accommodations were fine. The cabins are on a hill and you must climb a very steep hill each time you want to go anywhere. The shuttle was a great amenity.

Cabins are very cute from the outside BUT the interiors need updating and repair. Ours had a burnt smell and it was no wonder considering the heater had something burnt on to its grate and the smoke detector was missing. They are hard to access you park at the bottom of the hill and walk up boardwalks to get up to it ... if it is raining in Alaska, this is crazy difficult and SLIPPERY! For the outrageous cost per night to stay there it is not worth it.

When considering these are cabins, and not hotel rooms, these were decent for cabins. The rooms were fine and beautiful from the outside. The linens could use an upgrade. They provide each room with a cooler that sits outside and access to a freezer with bagged ice. The van for transportation is old. The cabins are on the side of a hill/mountain so plan on lots of stairs and/or steep inclines to get to the front desk and another climb to get to your cabins. They do have a golf cart to bring your luggage up to your room.
