The property was nice, but what stood out most was the staff they were outstanding. Our car had broken down and the town we were staying in was not very big so there were no mechanics surround however, the maintenance guy Logan took the time to get a new belt for us and repaired a car while we were out hiking Denali, Andres at the front desk found Logan for us and was very helpful. Can’t say enough about how great the staff there is.

We were here to visit Denali national park. The crows nest is only about 1 mile from the park entrance. So super convenient for our main goal. There are a ton of little shops, great eating establishments as well. The crows nest are individual cabins. They are not dry cabins, have hot water and a bathroom. They are definitely old, but have a fresh coat of paint. The restaurant on site has great service and good food but pricey. We tried a different place in Denali each night and never had a bad meal. But for coffee/breakfast highly recommend Black Bear down the hill. Over all we were satisfied with our stay!

Comfortable cabin, friendly staff. If you stay in the 300-500 numbered cabins, they are located on the side of a mountain, so you have to climb stairs to get to the restaurant or go to the shops in town.

Great location with respect to park access. Stretch 3 star lodging. Lodging is dated and due for a major renovation. The rooms are not level (i.e. if you put a marble on the floor, it will roll quickly to the other side). Carpet worn out. Fixtures in various states of disrepair. Faucets in the shower and sink are close to end of life. We didn't need AC with the windows open, but it would be hot sleeping if the weather was warmer, and there was some noise from other guests due to the open windows and close proximity of walkways and rooms. Restaurant was very good, as was the entire staff. For the price in this location during high season, it was OK, but our group (3 rooms) would look for a better alternative next time, even if the price was higher.

Cabins are very cute from the outside BUT the interiors need updating and repair. Ours had a burnt smell and it was no wonder considering the heater had something burnt on to its grate and the smoke detector was missing. They are hard to access you park at the bottom of the hill and walk up boardwalks to get up to it ... if it is raining in Alaska, this is crazy difficult and SLIPPERY! For the outrageous cost per night to stay there it is not worth it.

When considering these are cabins, and not hotel rooms, these were decent for cabins. The rooms were fine and beautiful from the outside. The linens could use an upgrade. They provide each room with a cooler that sits outside and access to a freezer with bagged ice. The van for transportation is old. The cabins are on the side of a hill/mountain so plan on lots of stairs and/or steep inclines to get to the front desk and another climb to get to your cabins. They do have a golf cart to bring your luggage up to your room.

Did not check in due to the Riley fire across the street; Denali park being evacuated; poor air quality; fear for our health; have not heard anything from resort or Expedia about refund. My evaluation will change once I have refund.

This was a pretty rough experience. The staff were very helpful but the facilities are just subpar, especially given the nightly rate. Plastic mattress liners poke you while sleeping and rustle around with the slightest movement. The bathroom was on an extremely noticeable slant. The screens in the windows were warped so we couldn’t keep the windows open at night to cool down. Dust and cobwebs were plentiful. We moved across the street for our second night.

Crow’s Nest works in a pinch as a place to stay outside Denali National Park. It is walkable to the restaurants and shops below, but some may find walking up the hill challenging. Some cabins are slanted and we came into a room with a burnt out lamp light bulb and stained pillow. Our scheduled shuttle pick-up was forgotten one day from Denali and we had to catch a ride back from other hotels. We enjoyed the views, the hot tub and sauna, the restaurant on site, and service from a few team members, especially Franklin. I wouldn’t recommend it, but it will do in a pinch.

We booked Denali Crows nest because there were not many options available during our stay that were a reasonable cost. I spent 763.28 for 2 nights, but amazingly this was the best price we could find in the area. I assure you, this was absolutely not worth the money spent. First, upon checking in the attendant did not know how to check us in and asked us to come back later when another employee would be around. This was her very first day. While I don't blame her, the management should not leave her alone if she isn't capable of running the place. Then, the Wi-Fi would not work in our room. We immediately reported it, but the girl in the office didn't know what to do, and told her supervisor. He came up and tried the same things we tried, but was unable to fix it. I appreciate him trying, but it's ridiculous to have these kinds of problems when I spent this much money on a place. The wifi worked (poorly) while in the lobby, but that's it. To top it off, there's no cable TV in the rooms, so without WiFi, there was nothing to watch. Several other guests had the same complaint while we were there. Lastly, the area is not very accessible. As far as I could tell, most if not all the cabins are only accessible by going up or down a set of stairs. The staff will assist you with a golf cart if you ask, but I wouldn't recommend this if you have any mobility issues. The restaurant on the property is nice, and the view was pretty good. The bed was comfortable.
