Alaska’s popularity as a vacation destination has grown steadily during recent years but there has not been a great deal of focus on what travelers can find in the interior of the state. The new Talkeetna Love-Lee Cabins, located in Denali Country, offer the freedom, comfort and resources for custom itineraries. There are only three cabins, built in 2015, a little over two miles from Talkeetna. They are open all year, but reservations for this coming summer are filling up rapidly.

Talkeetna is the Native Athabascan word for “where three rivers meet”. The town is at the confluence of the Talkeetna, Chulitna, and Little Susitna Rivers. They combine to form the Big Susitna River which moves the third largest amount of water in North America. Talkeetna is the largest town in Denali Country and is often used as base camp for climbers starting their ascent of Mt. McKinley. Other activities available to visitors include Flight-seeing tours, Canopy Zip Line tours through beautiful country, high performance riverboat tours, ATV tours and a variety of exceptional live theatre, music and art gallery options.

The new, modern cabins are on a 14-mile bike trail which runs from the Parks Highway into downtown Talkeetna. They are less than a mile from “The Overlook” roadside viewing and photo area offering a spectacular view of Denali and the entire Alaskan Mountain Range. The cabins are only a ten minute walk from X-Y Lakes and fishing, swimming, boating, and trail hiking. Visitors who are too tired to fix dinner in their own kitchen are only half a mile from the Flying Squirrel Café.

The Talkeetna Love-Lee Cabins are an ideal location from which to explore “inside” Alaska, a fascinating alternative to the coast. For more information, go to http://www.LoveLeeCabins.com . For questions, e-mail Manager@LoveLeeCabins.com or call (907) 947-8009.
