Fodor's Expert Review McKinley Creekside Cabins

Parks Hwy., Carlo Creek, Alaska, 99755, USA

These accommodations sit on 10 acres and are bordered on the south side by Carlo Creek, with 14 cabins right along the Creek and 13 rooms in a hotel-style building. Rooms come with covered private porches that face the creek and mountains. All rooms and cabins (excluding the economy variety) have a refrigerator, microwave, coffeemaker, private bathroom (featured in economy rooms), and most have large decks. Family cabins are available for up to six people. They've also added the Carlo House Rental properties to their repertoire, giving them three additional houses available to rent. While there is no meal plan included, the Creekside Cafe doubles as the front desk and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They've recently moved into catering for weddings as well, promoting their venue, catering, and locale for larger events.
