One of three yurts located on the property, Cantwell is just 29 miles from Denali Park. It allows you to see all the sights, but avoid the crowds. With a 360 degree mountain setting, 1/3 of a mile from the Jack River, a full view of Denali (Mt. Mckinley) on a clear day, you can enjoy vintage Alaska while still seeing all the park has to offer.

The space
Our yurt offers power (power strip with extension cords), clean sheets, comfy beds, drinkable water, sink, cooking stove, pots and pans, mini fridge, Keurig coffee maker (with K-cup per guest, additional cups $1 each) heat, desk, fully stocked outhouse, and optional $5 showers at our house next door. This yurt is approximately 60 and 120 yards from two other yurts and right along an airstrip where the occasional bush plane will land.

Where you’ll be

Cantwell
Wide tundra landscapes and dark winter skies define this gateway town, where northern lights often glow above Alaska's open terrain.
This listing's location is verified and the exact location will be provided after booking.

From the host

Cantwell is a small town of 200 nestled in the mountains of the Alaska Range and the Talkeetna Range. We have two gas stations with typical gas station food. Restaurants are always changing, but 14 miles north and at the park entrance, there is a variety of restaurants. Ask about local hikes and fishing opportunities if you want to avoid the crowds.
