We had a great time at the guesthouse. It is super close to the grocery store in Talkeetna as well as very close to the Talkeetna Air taxi for Glacier tour and has amazing view of Mount Denali! I will definitely be staying here again the next time I’m in Talkeetna. And yes we did find the moose!

Spacious rooms. Unique decor. Nestled nicely in the woods with a view of Mount Denali. We were lucky and had a visit from a momma moose and her twin calves. Fantastic host with great communications. Highly recommend to all!

Flying with K2!

We came to fly with our son who is a pilot in the summer for K2. In the winter he lives in Girdwood and is a national ski patroller. What a life! This beautiful place enhanced our stay with its beauty inside and out!

What an amazing visit. We were blessed with three beautiful days with fairly clear views of Denali. We did the wilderness tundra tour at Denali national Park and got to see four out of the five "big five". We spent a full relaxing day at the house and in Talkeetna. The town is beautiful and friendly. Relaxing at the house was its own form of heaven. The more we explored the house, the more we learned of Brian's adventures and what started as a beautiful vacation property became a home that we felt privileged to be able to stay at. Thank you for a wonderful stay- it truly helped shape our Alaskan experience!

We checked in on a rainy, overcast day. The next day was sunny and 70, and the property owner consented to our return so we could see the Denali view we missed and it was SPECTACULAR. Glad we returned. So, on a clear day, you can sit outside on the deck or inside and enjoy a clear view of Denali. The property is decorated in a mash-up of bush pilot, mountain climber, skiing , and Hobbit-house with a Scandinavian flavor. It's clean and well appointed. There are a couple other buildings we didn't access/rent. We were there just one night and this was a neat place to rest. Definitely recommend.

First glimpse of Denali

What an incredible piece of property tucked just outside of the mountain town of Talkeetna!The house was very well appointed, and we had everything we needed for a great few days. We saw a moose cow and her calf in the yard from the kitchen window, and caught the peak of Denali before clouds rolled in around 0530 AM our last day there. Brian and his wife are wonderful hosts, and stopped by to personally introduce themselves. There are a few things that could use some maintenance: loose trim, knobs, drawer face, etc. However, I would still rate this house 6 stars if it was possible! Great addition to our Alaskan vacation!

Perfect Spot for Family Getaway

Love the views, the layout and decor of the house and all of the functional items we needed for a weekend getaway. We messaged the manager for a Pack and Play for our toddler and they had it at the doorstep in <10 minutes. Great host and great property!

Amazing port in the storm

The weather in Talkeetna was pretty rough while were there but we tried to get out & enjoy the area as much as we could, but it was absolutely delightful to have our out of the wild mountain house to come home to. It was warm, comfortable & spacious!
