 "Alaska's Bentalit
Airpark, The Alaskan Pilot's Second Home."
Airpark Lots, Cabin Plans, Runway, and Lake Frontage Still Available. Imagine a crisp, quiet night,
where the moonlight sets the snow aglow and your bonfire casts sparks
into a clear starry night where the northern lights dance
above you. Beyond the fire, teams of Huskies strain north toward
Nome in the ultimate test of stamina, determination, and the will to
stay alive. You're standing on the frozen Yentna River witnessing
the Last Great Race, the Iditarod.
And all you did was step out your back door. Bentalit Village Airpark, set amongst the scenic Fish Lakes of Southcentral Alaska, is crowned with a 2300' runway -- a rare find in the Alaska wilderness. With direct access to the Yentna River, this peaceful sanctuary is accessible by boat, floatplane, and snowmachine as well as by airplane. The Airpark is a pilot's paradise-- and a sportsman's dream. Here, world-class fishing is just a cast away. Huge silver, red, pink, chum, and king salmon, and trophy rainbow trout, grayling, and burbot teem in the Yentna's many tributaries, including the famous Lake Creek, conveniently located just a couple minutes downriver. The Fish Lakes themselves abound with feisty northern pike and salmon. Hunting is also very popular in the area. You will not have to go far to find half-ton grizzlies and massive bull moose. Hiking, four-wheeling, boating, canoeing, and water-skiing are standard entertainment in summer, and snowmobiling, skiing, sledding, icefishing, and dogsledding are popular in winter. The Last Frontier offers pilots spectacular flightseeing opportunities such as Denali National Park. Mt. McKinley, "The Great One" dominates the horizon to the northeast. In summer in the land of the midnight sun, sunset occurs as late as 1am and sunrise as early as 4am. That gives you 21 daylight hours to explore and enjoy a juicy steak, shopping, and theater in Alaska's largest metropolis. Anchorage with its Merrill Field and Lake Hood is just 30 minutes flight Southwest across the Cook Inlet; Birchwood, Palmer, Wasilla, and Willow airports are just as accessible. If you're not in the mood for flying for your dinner, there's always Bentalit Lodge. Located within the airpark, Bentalit Lodge serves gourmet meals, offers a regulation-size racquetball court, billiards, ping-pong, and can house you or your guests in sumptuous style. It sure beats fighting traffic. There are a wide range of lots available, one to five acres in size, both waterfront and mountain view properties. Please visit the Lots Available page for more information. We also have photos of the area, covenant information, and listings of services available. Thank you for visiting our website. We hope to see you in future.
