Offering comfortable, rustic cabins and a location convenient to Denali National Park, EarthSong Lodge is a hidden gem for anybody who wants to get away from the tourist trail and have an authentic Alaskan experience.
The owner designed and built the log cabins, giving each one its own individual personality and decor. In an area of Alaska that often lacks authenticity, EarthSong Lodge gives you the feel of stepping into the wild. There are a variety of cabin options available to suit a wide range of visitors, whether you are a couple looking for a quiet cabin getaway or a family who needs lots of space.
OUR OPINION:
We like EarthSong Lodge because it鈥檚 close to the Denali National Park Entrance but away from the crowds and offers charmingly rustic cabins as well as an excellent coffee shop.

Rooms
The snug cabins here reflect the wild surroundings, with a rustic decor that features lots of wood. There are five cabin sizes available: Standard, Family, Two Room, Two Bedroom and Queen Suite, which can accommodate from two to four people. Each cabin includes a private bathroom, large bed, hair dryer and room darkening blinds, which are vital during the long Alaskan summer days. There is also a small deck area at the front of each cabin with outdoor seating, providing the space to relax and unwind after the day鈥檚 activities.
Location
Located in the town of Healy, 16 km (10 miles) to the north of the Denali Park Entrance, this is a great place to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. A quiet town with only a few shops and restaurants, you are still just a short, scenic drive away from the facilities of the main village of Denali.
Food and drink
Although it鈥檚 in a remote setting, EarthSong Lodge does have the excellent Henry鈥檚 Coffeehouse where you can pick up breakfast pastries, bagels, sandwiches and cinnamon rolls. Named after one of the owners' sled dogs, the coffeehouse is also filled with memorabilia from the owners鈥� sled trips, including trips to the Arctic, Northwest Passage and Iditarod Trail. You鈥檒l find plenty of interesting items to keep you occupied over your morning coffee, as well as boxed lunches for taking on expeditions into the park.
Facilities and activities
In keeping with the wilderness surroundings, facilities here are limited. You鈥檒l find Wi-Fi in the coffeehouse along with a number of books and games, as well as an on-site gift shop, which sells items that have been handmade by the owner Karin. You can also meet the dogs and puppies that pull the sleds during wintertime excursions.
