Original booking was for a lodge room but owners upgraded me to a cabin at no extra cost. Super cute cabin. No frills but comfortable. It is not within walking distance of Talkeetna, so I do recommend having a vehicle. There is a dog kennel somewhere in the neighborhood with lots of barking but did quiet down in the night and had no trouble sleeping. Hosts were very nice. I would absolutely recommend for a quick stay at an affordable price.

This was an adorable cabin, clean and cozy. We appreciated all the thoughtful, little touches - like paper plates and cutlery, extra blankets, and hot cocoa.

Cute, cozy cabin in the woods!
What a delightful stay! Stacey (the owner) was so wonderful and came to the cabin upon arrival to let us in as well as go over instructions. The cabin was very clean and had everything needed. The bathroom area was very close to the cabin but was still a small walk. Please note that if you are not okay with walking in the woods to the bathroom, this experience is not for you. Overall, a great experience and an even better price point!

Lovely place to stay.
The Meandering Moose is a lovely property cared for by the owners…upon arrival we met Stacy one of the owners and she greeted us with a welcoming smile. The hotel has all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate and microwaveable popcorn is available for guests. There’s a lovely porch to sit on and relax as well as a huge shared living room for guests. We stayed in the suite so we had access to our own private bathroom and washer and dryer. The Meandering Moose is conveniently located as we only traveled a couple minutes for the glacier plane excursion.

well, it was great till it wasn't! i was under impression that we booking a hotel-like-room and it turned out that owner had a freedom to walk into my room when I was in bed and talk to me like I am 12 year old! well, non of that is acceptable, if you have a rules, post them or let people know, if you don't like kids - say that in your ad ... but definitely never walk into someone's room when they in bed in pj's and insult them ...
