Cute house and location
The house had everything we needed with a great casual restaurant at CreekSide Cafe right up the road. We spent most of our days at Denali National Park hiking and this house was about 20 minutes from park. Our kids enjoyed the sauna and we all enjoyed the fire pit!

Cozy cabin
This cabin is so cozy. It has a fireplace and a sauna. If it hadn't been raining I could have enjoyed 1 of the 2 decks or the grill or the yard games that were provided. Having a good restaurant so close was another big plus. I would definitely stay here again if I get back up Alaska way.

Fantastic Stay!
The Carlo House was absolutely perfect for our group of 8. It was clean, comfortable, and only about 15 minutes to Denali National Park entrance. The cabin was stocked with the necessities as well as plenty of towels and soap (under the bathroom vanities). We used the fire pit almost every night during our stay. Be aware that there isn't a dining area inside of the house (a couple of bar stools) so if you are staying during colder months, the outside eating area may be an issue. The master bedroom was AMAZING!! The blackout shades in each room worked perfectly. We actually checked in at McKinley Creekside Cabins and I cannot say enough nice things about the staff! We ate at the cafe for dinner one night and the food was awesome! The whole place is gorgeous! Thank you for a great stay and we would definitely stay again!
