"Great service"

Reviewed January 08, 2025 NEW

Mary C was very helpful and got me in my room very quick after a long day of travel. When she couldn't find my reservation she made necessary calls and resolved the matter with no hiccups. She informed me of breakfast times, where the vending machines are at and lined up a shuttle for me the following day

"A nice place to land."

We had a lovely experience. The rooms were clean. The staff were responsive and kind. The breakfast was terrific and Yaz, the waiter, was amazing to watch. Always pleasant. The view from the restaurant in the morning was of the snow covered lake and the seaplanes. It is calming.

Reviewed January 01, 2025 NEW

Such a great spot for a respite from a stressful family vacation. We checked in for a couple days to do some shopping in Anchorage and visit with some friends. Perfect post-holiday break! The staff were friendly, the shuttle was on time, and the room was clean and comfy.
