Perfection!
The views are amazing. The cabin was perfect, staff is very friendly. Just what we needed after an 8 day camping/road trip. We had a wonderful time and would return again on our next visit to AK.

Best stop on this trip.
This was one of the most pleasant places we stayed on our trip in Alaska. I lived there in the past, wife didn't, both enjoyed the trip. Of the places we stayed, Alaska Glacier Lodge was the cleanest and easiest to relax in. We will happily return in the future.
