We loved this place and our room was great. It had dark curtains, which was so convenient for sleeping when the sun rises so early in the summer. Our room in the lodge was a sliding door away from the very nice shared kitchen with two big refrigerators for storing guest’s food. Very well equipped. We also received some great help from Stacey, the owner/ manager.

Comfortable hospitality in a super cool town

Wonderful stay after roughing it with some camping for a few nights. Much needed shower and rest, and a massive, well-equipped kitchen! Plus the wonderful porches with fire pits. Hosts were wonderful and the town of Talkeetna is *fantastic*. Highly recommend!

We stayed in a cabin. Very comfortable, rustic, quaint and warm. A little small. Stacey was extremely nice and accommodating. The lodge itself was closed for the season.

Our family stayed in the upstair suite, and it was very cozy and comfortable. It was so great that washer and dryer were equipped there. The entire cabin is so pretty, and surrounding is refresh and quiet. We all loved the place. The host is super nice. Definitely will recommend anyone who will visit Talkeetna for their trip stop.
