Denali Backcountry Lodge, Beyond Refreshing

Denali Backcountry Lodge

Denali Backcountry Lodge

While in the process of planning my Alaskan vacation I came across the Denali Backcountry Lodge, a lodge that was located deep within Denali National Park. I was not only intrigued by the remote location but also what amenities were available at this facility.

When you think about being in the wilderness you expect to be camping-not the case with the Denali Backcountry Lodge. Upon my arrival I was in for a bigger treat than I had anticipated. The cabins were very nice, clean, and also came with it’s own restroom-I was very pleased. I wasn’t looking to stay in my cabin for any extended amount of time because I only had a few days to soak in the serenity of the location, but it was nice to know that I had a hot shower and warm bed to crawl into after a long day of exploring.

I found myself very inspired by the location-the creek that runs through the property was an added bonus to the peaceful setting. I remember sitting outside my cabin around 11:00 pm and the only sounds I heard were the sounds of nature-not a sound of society near. For once in my life I felt like I got back to the basics of life-without the hussle and bussle of society-this was beyond refreshing.
