hiking. Treat your family to the warmth and comfort in one of six handcrafted vacation cabins
with views of North America’s tallest mountain, Mt. McKinley. From 2-person cute and cozy
cabins to groups of ten, we offer private lakeside cabins for rent. Summer guests enjoy
community campfires, lake fishing and canoeing. Your on-site management team - Susie and

The Petersville area is ranked by many as Alaska’s premier winter recreational playground. Gate
Creek Cabins gives you easy access to the Peters Hills, Dutch Hills, Denali State Park, and several
glaciers, with over 400 miles of groomed and marked trails.
You’ll enjoy incredible views of Denali/Mount McKinley, Mount Hunter, Mount Foraker and the
entire Alaska Range mountains just a mile from your doorstep. For powder riders, there are
over a million acres of meadows and frozen swamps to carve up. Or take a short ride up into
the lower mountains for some safe hill climbing. Avalanches are rare in this area.
