The location is very convenient, though close to the G. Parks Hwy still very quiet. Located in a vast green area with a lovely little lake on the premisses. The wether however was against us, so we could not enjoy the wonderfull view on DENALI, which the neighbouring guests has greatly praised. The breakfast was complete with a good choice.

It was wonderful to look at the McKinley View Bed and Breakfast from the outside and it"s wonderful grounds. Everything was neat tidy yet interesting for a wander around the grounds with a pond that ducks come into. We selected the room with a Denali view. The mountain area was cloudy when we got there but the next morning it was glorious. Renee, owner, was friendly and had good advice. Her breakfast was tasty: eggs, bacon, potato's, yogurt and fruit plus juice. Her ground coffee was lovely. The room was well equipped notes to help with TV and other things. The decor for our room and the whole B&B had an Alaskan flavor and charming. Bathroom was pristine in cleanliness, Our bed was cozy, warm and the mattress comfortable. This was our third trip to this B&B over the last few years. We know the standards and warm friendly feeling has continued through the years.

We were greeted by Renee and given options on where to get dinner. The room was excellent and even though the B&B is not too far off the main highway it was very quiet. The breakfast was delicious! Renee was so friendly and warm, I am sure we will be returning on our trips to the interior of Alaska!

Goralczyk United States

The space is beautiful and we felt well taken care of. Renee is. Great host!

Shari United States

The location was perfect for us, we were driving from Denali back to Anchorage, and this was the halfway point. Renee made us feel right at home with a quick tour and rundown of the amenities. Upon arrival there was a mama moose and two babies feasting by her pond. We had a nice night's rest in the comfy bed and woke up to a wonderful homemade breakfast! Her hashbrown casserole was amazing! Thanks again for the hospitality, what a special spot.

Jamie United States

Excellent breakfast, wonderful view, back porch calming and comfortable

Tracy United States

The host Renee was friendly and wanted to make sure your every need was met. The rooms were themed and perfect with excellent views of the property. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious and Renee gave me her potato casserole recipe. It was a great location for the night before staying in Denali.

Company information

We moved here in 2008 from Florida, we love the Alaska life. There is nothing better than to be able to share our home with the wonderful people we have hosted over the years. It has been so much fun talking with the many guest we've had from all over the world. We love the out doors and watching all the animals on our property.

Property information

We like to make all of our guest feel at home, we are not fancy people. Our home is set up simple but nice. Our rooms have hair dryers, coffee, DirecTV and wireless internet. We also have a computer for those that do not bring their own. We have 100 acres that our guest can walk around, beautiful views of MT. McKinley (Denali). We have lots of animals come around to our pond; we also have great views of the Aurora. We are only 30 minutes from the town of Talkeetna. ALL of our rooms are single or double occupancy only. Our prices are based on double occupancy rate, so single is the same rate as double occupancy.

Neighbourhood information

We are in the small community of Trapper Creek if you want to be away from the crowds we're the place for you. We are only 30 minutes from the town of Talkeetna and 20 minutes to Denali State Park. If Denali National Park is something you want to see we are 2 hours south of the National Park.
