The Taiga House - inspiring mountain views at the edge of Denali National Park

Back on the market after taking 2 years off to rent out yearly.

The Taiga House is located in the forest just north of Denali National Park. Once a spacious B&B known as "The Grand View" it has been remade into a family home with two vacation rentals. Our three bedroom, second floor residence is attached, yet private, with an entrance and yard of it's own, amazing views of the local mountains scenery and abundant charm. It sleeps six, with 2 queen beds and a daybed with trundle bed under, full bath, spacious living room/dining and fully equipped kitchen plus a washer/dryer.
There is a bar-b-que grill, picnic table, fire pit and amazing wilderness just outside the door.
There are restaurants, a brew pub, and a full grocery stores just a ten minute walk down the trail, or a two minute drive away, and many more restaurants, bars and shops twelve miles south in the bustling tourist zone known as Glitter Gulch outside the entrance to Denali Park.

Great place to stay

I would stay here over and over again! Great property with a gorgeous, scenic view. Todd was very welcoming, and told us about his well worn path to hike on his property. We slept five adults comfortably. It was clean and just perfect place to stay for our family.

Great location near Denali

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was very clean and had anything we might need. The owner, Todd, stopped by to welcome us and ask if we needed anything. I would very much recommend staying here.

Easy to book great communication

We booked last minutes while traveling in Alaska and an unexpected flight changed forced a sudden cancellation. The hosts were quick to respond and generous with their policy. Will definitely stay with them when we return and can get to the Denali area.

Pretty dope for one bath.

Really great. House was clean and easy. The dogs were super nice, cute, and fun. Only challenge was 1 bathroom for 6 people but the ad was accurate and we knew it going in. Still we had a great time and I would give high marks all around.

Gem in Healy

Very clean house. Beautiful property, very close to Denali entrance. Even closer to Grocery, Gas and 49th State Brewery which is very big, modern and has very good food. The house was cleaner, nicer, and larger than I was expecting. Close enough to the park for convenience but just far enough where you felt out in the wilderness and away from the crowds.

Fabulous View!

This is the most fabulous view of the Alaskan mountains from our multiple living area windows. Also has a really nice hiking trail through the woods on the property. Location is convenient to restaurants, grocery store, gas station, and just a few miles north of Denali NP entrance. To top it off host was very friendly, good conversationalist and three of the friendliest dogs you'll ever meet. I could go on forever about how much we enjoyed our stay. Just wish we could have stayed longer.

Great place, friendly hosts

The Taiga house is exactly as advertised and the backyard was a huge bonus. Comfortable house with a kitchen that made it easy to cook a few meals. Great access to Denali. Near grocery store and (underwhelming yet popular) brewery. Bedrooms have the best blackout curtains I’ve ever seen. Unfortunately the park was closed while we were in town but there is a 4 mile hike right out the back of the property that was fun for the family.

Beautiful spot

We really enjoyed our stay. The unit is spacious and had everything we needed. We loved the view and walking the property. The owner was very friendly and responsive. We didn’t bring shampoo and body wash, but he found a few extra travel size bottles and gave them to us (be sure to bring your own!). Bear spray was provide though. The location is an easy drive to Denali. Would recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable and beautiful.

The home was very comfortable - comfy living room, comfortable beds, and good water pressure. We slept 5 with the trundle bed no problem. Full kitchen was clean, updated, and essential items. Pics can’t do the view from living room and kitchen justice. Full line of large windows that ran length of the property looking out at the mountains could not be beat. Had to pull myself away from the view. 15 min drive to Denali was scenic and I am so glad we decided to stay in Healy rather than Glitter Gultch. Great restaurant only 5 min away, grocery, hardware, and essentials right around the corner. Property owner was nearby, super friendly, attentive, but left us alone except for a friendly greeting and a few tips of the area. Would definitely stay there again.

Awesome stay

Wonderful spot for a family. Pictures don't do the home or the view justice. Truly wonderful. Extremely well equipped kitchen with high quality appliances and accessories, and many thoughtful touches throughout thr home. Nearby Three Bears grocery store very easy to get to and prices were really reasonable. Quick hop to the Denali park road. Wonderful hosts, super cute and friendly dogs on property. Would 1000% return.

Wonderful, comfortable and clean accommodations in Healy, minutes from Denali Park. Todd, Julie and the dogs were gracious hosts. Very enjoyable and great spot to experience the best of Denali Natl Park. Hiked Mount Healy overlook, Triple Lakes, Savage River Alpine, and Horseshoe Lake. Saw Bears, Caribou, Dall Sheep, and Moose.

From the moment we arrived, we felt immediately welcome and were greeted by our host and their adorable dogs! Our first morning did not disappoint as we spotted a moose moving through the back woods. The next day we saw a mama moose and her twins! We enjoyed visiting Denali park and had perfect weather. Finally, we did the hike out the back of the house and saw yet another moose and baby. The house was very comfortable for the six of us and one bathroom did not pose any problems. We would highly recommend Taiga House to anyone staying in Healy or nearby!

We loved the proximity of the house to the park! We really enjoyed our stay. The house was super clean and comfy. We loved the views out of the window and loved playing with the dogs. We grilled out one night. The kitchen was to stocked with everything we needed. We had a nice hot shower too which was nice.
