Fun Bar Experience

The lively bar atmosphere really enhanced our stay, especially with Hanna as our bartender. She not only made fantastic drinks but also added to the overall enjoyment of our dining experience. We ended up having all our meals there, and every dish was delightful.

Comfortable Cabin Stay

We stayed in a beautiful cabin that felt like a cozy home away from home. The high-quality linens and spacious layout made our nights extremely comfortable. Enjoying meals on the terrace while soaking in the natural surroundings was a highlight of our trip.

I had a wonderful experience staying at the hotel by the Nenana River. The cabin was spacious and cozy, providing breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. The friendly staff were incredibly helpful with recommendations for local activities, enhancing my overall stay. However, the dining options were limited due to the off-season, and one restaurant had disappointing food quality, which was a letdown given the otherwise great experience.

I had mixed feelings about my stay. The property itself is beautifully set along the river, providing stunning views and a cozy atmosphere. However, my room was awfully noisy, lacking air conditioning, which made for a less than restful night. The standout aspect was definitely the bar, where the staff really shone, especially Hanna, who made our evenings enjoyable with her fantastic cocktails.

This resort offers a picturesque setting right near the entrance of Denali National Park, with a rustic charm that brings the Alaskan experience to life. My room was clean and featured a nice balcony overlooking the Nenana River, making my stay quite enjoyable. However, the dining options were on the pricier side and could be better. Additionally, some guests mentioned issues with room cleanliness and comfort, particularly in older buildings, which is a downside worth considering.

My husband and I chose to stay here for a hike but ended up with a disappointing experience. While we appreciated the professional response from the staff when things went wrong, the overall communication and organization left much to be desired. We found the restaurant options limited, and the location made it necessary to depend heavily on them. Although there were some highlights, like the quick refund process and understanding staff, the lack of effective communication really overshadowed our stay.
