Beautiful lodge in the woods
Excellent lodging, nestled in the woods, just a few minutes from Talkeetna. Very quiet location. Our hosts couldn't have been nicer and accommodating. The place was in top condition and kept spotlessly clean. We would definitely go back if we returned to the area!

The owners are wonderful people. They rented us their KIA so we could use it to get to town and at such a reasonable price. Then, they even gave us a ride to the railroad station. Great experience, and we definitely recommend it.

The room was nice and cozy, but the most important thing to us was a nice comfortable bed, we were very disappointed, the mattress was very uncomfortable and bed size only full too small for two adults . We were expecting at at least a queen side bed. I couldn’t sleep because I was afraid to fall off the bed. Every time we turned, the mattress moved. The bed situation, made me took off two stars

Thank You for your comments. The bed in the Mt. Whispers Suite is a queen size bed just as advertised on the Expedia Website. The mattress was purchased and upgraded in June 2023. We are sorry your were not comfortable.

Nice location, but uncomfortable stay
We wanted to love this property, based on the pictures and location, but it was not a comfortable stay. The shower is quite small, at 5’4” my elbows were hitting the sides as I washed my hair. There’s also a very low ceiling over the sink. Anyone of average height will likely need to be very careful not to hit their head. Also as a terrace level bedroom you can hear the footsteps above, the bed squeaks when you roll over and the pull down shade over the door isn’t light blocking. As many reviewers noted, the banana nut bread is a nice welcoming touch, but it doesn’t make up for the other issues that make this an uncomfortable stay

My wife and I had a great stay here! We were arriving late so our host gave us a call with instructions regarding check in which was nice. The location had the heater running prior to arrival, so we had a very cozy entry. The freshly made cookies were a nice touch as well :-) Would stay again.
