Exit Glacier Lodge

Jump to:

Exit Glacier Lodge is a simple, authentically Alaskan lodge with a clapboard façade and decking, and is located near the harbor town of Seward.

It’s ideally situated for exploring both the town and the nearby Kenai Fjords National Park. Set in the Resurrection River Valley below Exit Glacier, the lodge enjoys a peaceful woodland setting and is the starting point for many good hiking trails. It’s also located opposite a characterful pub which offers hearty food, including (as you might expect) plenty of seafood options, as well as good microbrews and wines.

Some rooms have balconies and all are furnished in an honest, homespun style.

OUR OPINION:

A simple character lodge, ideally located for those wanting to walk and explore the Exit Glacier area.

OUR RATING: Simple
