The Denali Grizzly Bear Resort is the only hotel property in Denali where you can stand on your deck and see nothing but wilderness, the river, the trees and the mountains!
The Cabins
Some of the cabins at the resort are unique “turn-of-the-century” buildings which were an integral part of Alaska's rich pioneering history and have been transported to the Denali Grizzly Bear property and meticulously restored. Other cabins are carefully crafted reproductions of authentic Alaska cabins. Each of the cozy cabins at Denali Grizzly Bear Resort is unique and placed into its own private wooded setting and every cabin also allows easy drive-up access right to your cabins front door.
