About this property
Great views from A Second Home in Denali, vacation rental, close to the Park!
A Second Home has four bedrooms and two and a half bedrooms, LARGE dining room with a table for all, kitchen and living room, and laundry room. Each bedroom has its own TV and there is a LARGE screen TV in the living room. Guests often mention the home has beautiful views and is spacious for families and friends to gather comfortably. It is currently listed as a favorite for 2026 with VRBO readers.
You will see more trees and mountains than people when you are here. THIS PROPERTY HAS TO BE OWNER-OCCUPIED, AS PER HOA RULES.. Owners' space is a completely separate area with a different area.
Second Home has a LARGE, private deck in the backyard that looks out on mountain views. It's the only Denali vacation rental with a completely paved driveway and parking area and two acres of quiet lawns and woodlands. It has a turn-around driveway with plenty of space for parking.
Owners are year-round Alaskans who have been hosting guests for 37 years in the Denali Area. They book rental cars and give accurate tour desk information. They offer free transfers to and from the Denali Depot if you book a rental car AND reserve train tickets through them.. If you are confused about tours and transit buses and attraction in the Park, ask your hosts. They have accurate and timely information based on personal experience.
They have up-to-date information about Denali National Park, the area and the state. Their tips will save you money and time. Example: be sure to take the East Fork Transit Bus for $33.50 (2025 prices) instead of the Tundra Wilderness Tour for $144.50. The transit bus is narrated too. Please ask if you have Denali questions. Service is an important part of their offerings.

About the host
Hosted by Ann Langenberg-Miller
We are year-round Alaskans. Ann is a retired teacher; Terry is a retired federal worker, and Bart works in the Healy bank. We own a B&B, this vacation rental and a car rental in Healy.
Why they chose this property
Most likely you will see more trees and mountains than people when you stay at A Second Home in Denali. It is on a quiet street two blocks from "downtown" Healy, which is the closest year-round community to Denali National Park. It is a clean, quiet and well-appointed property run by year-round Alaskans. This property is in an HOA that requires the property be owner occupied.
Second Home has four lockable bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. It has two acres of lawns and forest. There are beautiful mountain views from the back of the home.
It is 1/2 mile from Highway #3. It's close enough to restaurants and attractions and tours, and far enough away to be quiet and private.
