Best Place to Stay in Talkeetna Alaska: Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge {Review}

I was invited to stay at Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge. As always, all opinions are my own.

It's a home away from home. The Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge is the best place to stay in Talkeetna, Alaska. Choose a room overlooking the river and Denali National Park, and you'll wake up to breathtaking views you'd never thought possible. The rooms are spacious, clean, and the perfect juxtaposition of luxury meets practicality. You'll never want to leave after you check in. The service is incredible, the staff is friendly, and the views couldn't be better. I spent two nights in Talkeetna, and I can’t wait for the opportunity to go back. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else.

Rooms with a View

The Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge offers 212 rooms, all with great views. My room in the Main Lodge was a Mountain Side room, which happened to overlook the Denali National Park. What’s better than being in Alaska, near Denali National Park, and waking up overlooking the park? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Breathtaking. Spectacular. Memorable. Incomparable.

Majestic Views and Beautiful Grounds

In addition to lots of great activities that you can do right in Talkeetna, the grounds of the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge offer trails for recreation and views for relaxing. Choose to enjoy a glass of wine and the panoramic views of Denali National Park from the back deck. Or grab your sneakers and walk the trails and grounds around the lodge and its 640 acres overlooking the Alaska Range.

Onsite Restaurants and Fine Dining

Whether you’re looking for quick dining, a coffee break, or fine dining, Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge offers the perfect dining option for your needs. Grab a coffee at the Tokosha Coffee & Gift Shop or a down-home favorite from the Base Camp Bistro. For something for formal and elegant, Foraker Dining Room has been featured on the Food Network Channel, so that may be the fine dining experience you are in search of. For an evening cocktail, stop by the Base Camp Lounge.

Coffee and Gifts Available at the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge

Whether you need a quick pick me up because you are addicted to caffeine like me, or you are simply looking for quality gifts so you can bring home a bit of Alaska with you, the Tokosha Coffee and Gift Shop at the Main Lodge has everything you need. From espresso drinks and great local brew to authentic Alaska Native Art, the gift shop offers a variety of hand-selected local Native art and crafts to preserve and support skilled Alaskan Native artists.
