Seward - Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge A stay at the Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge begins and ends with a marine wildlife and glacier cruise through Kenai Fjords National Park.

The park is also a prime destination for whale watching. On the 4-5 h. journey to the wilderness lodge, keep your eyes out for incredible views of the Kenai Peninsula and a variety of marine wildlife. Seek out whales, Steller sea lions, Dall’s porpoises, sea otters, puffins and more. Relax and take in the beauty of this pristine area - both to and from the Glacier Lodge.

Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge | Kenai Fjords Enjoy spectacular views of Pedersen Glacier from the comforts of the main lodge deck. With only 16 log cabins surrounded by a 1,700 acre wildlife sanctuary, it's safe to assume you'll find plenty of "me-time." For over 30 years, we sought to balance authentic Alaska wilderness experiences with premium service and comfortable lodging. Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge continues this tradition, offering new access to Alaska's breathtaking seacoast; these private cabins feature on-demand heat, electricity and a full bath. A network of boardwalks connect the cabins, protecting the environment. In addition, the breathtaking location of the wilderness cabins is another highlight. Guest cabins are designed to be minimally visible from the Pedersen Lagoon while still offering spectacular views from within. Built with the surrounding wilderness in mind, guests need not leave the comforts of their private cabins; the immensity of the Alaskan landscape is just outside the cabin window.
