An Alaska Retreat

Denali Square is best described as both a hub and a retreat for Holland America Line guests at the doorstep of Denali National Park.

Relax in an Exclusive Alaska Retreat

In the heart of our 60-acre McKinley Chalet Resort is Denali Square, the perfect place for guests to soak up the Alaska experience.  Guests can dine, relax, connect, explore and be entertained in their own private retreat.

Gateway to a National Treasure

On the shores of the Nenana River, near the entrance to Denali National Park, McKinley Chalet Resort is the comfortable base camp for all adventures at the Park, including flightseeing, ATV exploring, hiking trails, river rafting and more.

Denali Square Amphitheater

At the center of Denali Square is an amphitheater with a covered performance stage and bench seating, where guests can attend presentations by National Park rangers, naturalist lectures, locally themed demonstrations, talks and live music.

Our Artists in Residence

Artists have worked in national parks for more than a century. There are now many artist residency programs in the U.S., including Denali. Our Artists-in-Residence Cabin features artists working on Denali-related pieces. Come watch and visit.

Taste Alaska at Denali Square
