Denali Grizzly Bear Resort

McKinley Park

Just LOVED this cozy little place where our tour housed us during our visit to Denali National Park. Not that you’ll need or want it, there is cable TV and, perhaps a bit more needful, a bit of WIFI (two bars) in our rooms. The resort also has sites for campers and trailers, cabins and platformed tents for those wishing a more rustic experience. Would definitely return on my own for a week or two. It’s located less than 5 miles from the park visitor center from which you can take bus tours deeper into the park. Fantastic!

Super cozy with even a bit of WIFI!

Our room was dirty. We literally found trash in the bathroom floor and behind the bedside table. It’s old and cheap. There are literally zero services that don’t require an extra fee. You only get 30 minutes of free (bad) Wi-Fi. I wouldn’t stay again and would not recommend it. 

Dirty

This hotel was part of the land/sea cruise. large enough rooms, with great view of the creek and mountain side. a train went by in the middle of the night, that was cool. the hotel is part of a campground area. the main draw back was lack of restaraunt. there was a Thai food truck and a little store. 

large rooms with great view of creek

We found the Grizzly bear motel to be great! Check in was quick and staff friendly. We liked our room on building C with great deck with seating overlooking a river.  The room was clean and just as needed. Close and easy access to  Denali NP and just a couple miles to restaurant and gift shops. On site store had good coffee.  Would stay here again!

A nice and enjoyable surprise!

We stayed in the RV park section of the resort. Spaces are pretty tight, but they all have electric and water (there is a dump station on-site that's free for customers to use). Sites are clean and the area is quiet at night. Rates are very reasonable and the resort is very easy to find (it's right on the highway). There is a great restaurant across the street at another, much larger resort, but there is also a food truck always on premises at this resort. The check-in was a breeze and there is both a gift shop and liquor store in the same building. Wi-Fi is not free and Verizon cell service was marginal to non-existent in the RV itself. It was better out by the highway. There are a number of cabins there, too, but we didn't look inside any of them. Based on the vans we saw and/or used, many tour companies inside Denali National Park, or very close by, will pick you up at the resort if you don't want to disconnect and drive to a meeting place. There are also numerous flyers posted near the office for private transportation services. This was the perfect place for us to stay during our visit to Denali.

Very Nice RV Park

It's a big room with a nice view, but it's very noisy, you can hear everything.

More Can Be Done

Stayed there during our Denali trip. The room was just like I was staying in a wilderness cabin. We were lucky to have a room with a balcony overlooking the changing trees and river. It is not a Hilton, but way more than I expected being in the middle of nowhere.

Felt like a cabin in the woods

Quaint clean room with a nice view off the patio.  It is pretty isolated with no food places close except for a Thai food truck.  The room was clean and nice but no refrigerator or microwave.  Woodsy decor that fit the area.  Would stay again.

Great for one night

Luckily we could find a room for the night as it was busy. We have stayed here before and our cabin last time was cute (but still quite loud). This one was run down and had trash in the firepit out front. It was clean inside. There were several cabins up top that appeared empty, but for some reason they gave us the one overlooking the highway and highway project. All night long semis roared by as this is a major haul road and they drive at night to avoid the traffic, jake brakes and all, right below us. In the morning the construction started early. I made the mistake of doing laundry here $4 per load to wash and $4 to barely dry. The washer took 30 or 40 minutes to fill at a dribble and hot on the dryer was barely lukewarm so that took forever too. Laundry facilities were run down and filthy. These accommodations cost over $250 for 2 double beds for my husband and I.

Nice people, room had semis roaring by all night. All the other rooms that were tucked back were not offered.

We enjoyed our stay at the Grizzly Bear. We had a “hotel” room which was comfortable and cozy. It was very simple but clean and quiet. We enjoyed the river which flowed right past our hotel unit.  Finding places to eat in the area was a bit of a challenge. Seems like there are just not enough workers. 
There are RV sites, tent sites, cabins and “hotel” rooms.
Would definitely recommend a stay at the Grizzly Bear Resort.
