Paid $140 for Wi-Fi for two phones over two days. Being stuck in the mountains with no reception, it’s frustrating to be charged so much—feels like you’re taking advantage of guests who are desperate just to get online and manage their affairs. On top of that, there’s no fridge to store anything, and the TV looks like it’s from 2001.

Disliked: Amenities
Based on the description and pictures, I expected all rooms to be overlooking the river. Incorrect. 3 large buildings were overlooking the river, but several others were not. And of course our rooms did not. What made it worse is it looked like most of the rooms that did overlook the river were vacant.

Great room. No elevator or baggage waiter, so you have to tote your bags up the stairs if you happen to be on the second floor. Train whistle was a little loud as it came thru during the night. Other than that, overall stay was good for a last minute booking.

It is a lovely rustic family run resort. Its a beautiful setting amidst great tall pines alongside the small river. It gets you away from the Denali rush yet is close to everything. It is my 3rd stay there and will stay again if I return to Denali park.

The river view from the cottage was beautiful. Lodge is old but well maintained. Thai Food truck on the property had some amazing vegetarian options. The staff were very nice and helpful. They also let us check in 1 hour early without any issues as our rooms were ready.

I love this place!

My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Grizzly Bear Resort. I loved the room and the river view. Also, the food trucks on the property were very good. The resort is close to trails in Denali National Park.
