Hi Katy,

This will be my second year at the Denali Princess and I am really looking forward to it. For most people it is a wonderful experience from seeing new sights to meeting new people and making new friends! The lodge is a beautiful place with an almost continual bustle of guests either checking in, checking out, looking for a place to eat or that special gift for someone back home and it's our job regardless of what department we work in to help the guests.

As an employee you will be housed in Healy which is about 10 miles north of the hotel at our home away from home which is refered to as Homestead, it's a converted hotel where you'll find your home for the next 4 months. It's where we sleep and eat and enjoy other good times. You will find the employee dining room for meals, an internet lounge, library, game room and lounge. It's not luxurious but it is clean and provides employees with a comfortable place to sleep, it's a must better arrangement than other employers in the area.

If you have more questions just post them here.

Dude, your summer at Denali is gonna rock some head! Bears, Moose, whitewater rafting, and hell, maybe even some salmon fishing... I read all these posts and I already miss the northern lifestyle... I fish out of Homer, AK all summer, but this year, if I can get a gig working north, I'll trade in my boat job for that. Good luck, guys, and if you hear of an opening (I bartend here in AK in winter, and have guided before), hit me up :) I'll take ya halibut fishing down on the peninsula for it!

This will be my third year for DPWL and I cant wait to go back. Over the last two years I have made some amazing friends and meet some life long friends. Cant wait to get the old group back together and make a ton of new friends to add to the group. All those who knew me in the past are in for a big surprise this year. I get to leave homestead daily instead of being stuck in the building almost 24/7.
