Built atop a high bluff, the Tal­keet­na Alaskan Lodge over­looks the Susit­na Riv­er Val­ley and sur­veys the entire Alas­ka Range, with Mt. Denali right in the mid­dle. On a clear day, all of the com­mon rooms plus cer­tain guest rooms offer this same fab­u­lous panora­ma. Take in the view as you enjoy a meal and a selec­tion from the award-win­ning wine list.

His­to­ry, fun, and mas­sive por­tions of food come togeth­er at this insti­tu­tion, which was built over 3 years start­ing in 1914. Choose from a vari­ety of cozy rooms in the main road­house and wake up the smell of fresh baked goods from the Kitchen in the morn­ing. Or, for a more pri­vate expe­ri­ence, book one of the cab­ins out back or the Muse­um Apart­ment at the end of the block.

The Don Shel­don Moun­tain House may be the world’s most spec­tac­u­lar­ly sit­u­at­ed cab­in.
