McKinley View B&B0

Room was comfortable, nice size, immaculate clean, all rooms are themed, great shower with shampoo and conditioner. We enjoyed homely environment of the whole property with cozy breakfast room where you can talk to other residences and share your experience. The owner Renee is friendly , kind, made sure we have everything, we liked talking to her and admired how she maintains everything, breakfast she cooked for us was hot and delicious. Backyard is amazing with pond where we sat on the swing with glass of vine. We did not see Denali because of clouded day but saw a lot of sandhill Cranes. Talkeetna is just 30 minutes to drive where we went for dinner.

The location was great. I'd recommend visiting in the summer or warmer months due to the dense cloud coverage and the amount of snow on the ground if seeing Denali or doing some exploring is what you're interested in doing. It was really nice having the feeling of being at your own home and the independence to access amenities you would like you were.

A little earlier check-in would be nice. Like 3 PM vs. 4. The City of Talkeetna is the closest place to have a sit-down meal and is about 30-40 minutes away, so being able to get in and unpacked earlier would likely help larger groups. I came by myself and didn't have any issues.

Our stay here was great. We arrived in the designated checkin time and were greeted by the host. She walked us through the house and our room and got us settled in. The room was spacious enough with a nice setup. the bathroom was clean and well organized as well as stocked with basic essentials. The second door of the room led out to a patio where you can see out into the distance where Denail and some other mountains would be visible. We were able to catch a glimpse of denali at sunset when clouds cleared. we also got to witness some northern lights at night due to a solar flare that was expected during our stay. the next morning, the host served us a great breakfast and coffee/tea. We appreciated that since we would have had to go find a place to get breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay here and loved the host. She treated us like family and that was a great touch to the whole experience.

We absolutely loved our stay. Our family of 7 rented all 4 rooms for 2 nights and couldn’t have been happier with our choice. The property is conveniently located a short drive from Talkeetna. The rooms are perfectly clean and comfortable and the views of Denali are amazing. Breakfast was great, and Renee and Rod were very friendly, welcoming and full of knowledge about the area. Our evenings sitting out on the patio enjoying the gorgeous weather and views were major highlights of our trip to Alaska.

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.

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.

The B&B is located 2 hours north of Anchorage and is a great stopping point before getting to Denali National Park. We were able to pick berries on their 100 acre property. There are four rooms, 2 of them face Denali. I recommend staying in one of these two rooms because of the deck and view. They were able to accommodate us and make a breakfast for our early departure. Great breakfast - eggs, toast, bacon, potatoes, coffee, tea, fresh fruit, yogurt, juice, and lots of homemade jams & jellies.

The walls seemed "thin." You can hear your neighbors moving around and the main residents above you. This wasn't a big issue for us because we spent most of our evening outside. But, it may be annoying for some if their neighbors are loud.

The location is superior, with grand views of the Alaska Range and Denali from just outside the door. Quiet, with the sounds of ravens in the woods across the hayfields. Also exceptionally good; Denali State Park a half hour north and Talkeetna also a half hour drive. Breakfast was excellent, a buffet-style with eggs and meats, breads, fruit, yogurt, etc. When we return to the Denali area, this is where we'll be.

This was our second stay during our Alaska trip and everything was as good if not better than our first stay a few days prior. Host was amazing, the place was comfortable, we enjoyed the views and got to see northern lights as well from the comfort of our hotel, and the breakfast was really delicious once again. We would recommend everyone to stay here if they are in Talkeetna/Tapper Creek area. They really treat you like family here.

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.

There is nothing to complain.
