Seward & Kenai Fjords Wilderness Lodges

Locat­ed with­in a 1700 acre native-owned wildlife sanc­tu­ary in the heart of Kenai Fjords Nation­al Park, the cen­tral lodge and 16 guest cab­ins of Kenai Fjords Glac­i­er Lodge have full views of Ped­er­sen Glac­i­er and easy access to wildlife-view­ing adven­tures.

This lodge offers a unique wilder­ness expe­ri­ence. Set on Fox Island, it is acces­si­ble only by boat from Seward, and is a true escape from civ­i­liza­tion. Kenai Fjords Wilder­ness Lodge has 8 cab­ins which do not have tele­vi­sions; the focus here is on nature. Go out on a nat­u­ral­ist-guid­ed walk, or take a kayak excur­sion and look for whales that swim right up to the shore. At the end of the day, enjoy the com­pa­ny of oth­ers around the campfire.
