Overview
Looking for the Knik River Lodge? You found it! The property is now named Alaska Glacier Lodge.
The Knik River Road ends at the Alaska Glacier Lodge, a remote property an hour's drive from Anchorage. The setting is as peaceful and picturesque as they come. Mountains rise above the braided river valley to the north, and a forest of spruce trees border the landscaped space to the south. Daily helicopter tours into the nearby glaciated Alaskan wilderness leave from the pad below the lodge.
The setting is as peaceful and picturesque as they come.
The Alaska Glacier Lodge offers spacious private cabins with one bed (either king or queen) or two queens. These cabins define rustic chic, with smooth wood plank walls, minimalist décor, and luxurious bedding. Every cabin has its own north-facing deck, the perfect place to rest after a day exploring nearby Palmer, beautiful Hatcher Pass, and the Independence Mine State Historical Park.
As a farm-to-table eatery, the onsite Raven's Perch Restaurant showcases the best of Alaska's unique culinary offerings. Nearly all ingredients are grown and harvested in nearby Palmer. The restaurant serves a complimentary continental breakfast for guests, lunch, and dinner. Lunch brings a selection of tasty sandwiches and salads or a pre-ordered sack lunch for guests heading out for the day. In the evening, the restaurant puts together carefully crafted seasonal entrees. Meals are complemented by wine or local craft beers and sweet treats to finish.
