Cons
EarthSong Lodge Review
Above the tree line at the edge of Denali National Park, EarthSong has views of open tundra backed by peaks of the Alaska Range. Each of a dozen hand-built cabins has a theme (Denali, Sled Dog, Mountaineering) and private bath, a rarity in such small cabins in remote settings. In winter Earthsong Lodge is one of two concessionaires permitted to lead multiday dog-mushing tours into Denali. The restaurant, Henry's Coffeehouse, named after a beloved sled dog, serves breakfast and espresso drinks and makes sack lunches. It has a great homey atmosphere with a living room, dining room, and library. Browse the made-in-Alaska gifts next door at the Divas in Denali gift shop. Slide shows of Denali through the seasons and dog-sledding expeditions are a nightly treat; tours of the sled-dog kennel are offered as well.
