Earthsong Lodge was the best place we stayed at in Alaska. It is near Denali (25 minutes drive), very clean, and very comfortable. The cabins give you more privacy than most hotels, and the beds are very comfortable. And they have amenities that most hotels do not. There is a shared kitchen space with a full-sized refrigerator and microwave, as well as shared supplies. Lots of cans of insect repellent and bear spray that customers can borrow for free. And there's a cute yurt that serves as a library space. Comfortable chairs, lots of books to borrow, and lots of board games to play. My family and I spent one evening playing a board game after hiking all day in Denali. There are also good restaurants in the area, as well as a nice coffee shop on the premises with pastries and breakfast sandwiches. We highly recommend Earthsong Lodge!
