Exceptional check-in experience

Recent guests gave the check-in process a 5-star rating.
This 16 foot yurt is perfect for those visiting Denali Park, want a full view of Denali, and have a 360 degree view of nothing but mountains, river, and forest! The yurt is only 29 miles from the entrance to the park and is equipped with power, propane cook stove, lights, toyo stove heating for temperature control, wood stove, and wood for purchase ($10 a bundle). Being elevated, you can walk out the door to great views and if clear weather, a full view of the tallest mountain in North America!

The space
I supply drinking water and a drainable sink, fully stocked outhouse, and clean linens for every visitor. Bed arrangements are bunk bed setup with full mattress on bottom and twin on top. I supply a twin foam pad for floor sleeping for a 4th guest as well. There is a mini fridge along with a Keurig coffee maker. I supply one K-cup per guest and additional cups for $1 each.

Guest access
The Jack River is 400 yards away for easy walking access. There is a hiking trail right from the yurt taking you closer into the mountains.

Other things to note
-My driveway is a little bumpy and a little steep, but any rental car/vehicle can easily make it.
-Northern Lights viewing in the winter.
-Another thing to note is during the winter, the rv park nearby that has the shower accommodations is closed for the season, but my house on property is available for showers for $5.
