A trip to Alaska is the stuff of dreams for many travelers. But where to stay? Only a bed and breakfast with a stupendous view will do, and Alaska has plenty of those. But the Denali Overlook Inn is at the top of the list with spacious suites, inviting common spaces, and some stellar views of Denali and the surrounding mountain range from its giant windows.
The Denali Overlook Inn was originally built to host professional photographers traveling to Alaska and grabbing bush planes out to remote parts of the state. The four-story lodge was constructed with hand-hewn spruce timbers sourced within ten miles.
