"The personal service is what makes AWA special. The fact that so many of the guides have such longevity with the company speaks well. It's obvious that they love what they do and are excited to share the specialness of the Alaskan experience with visitors."

Kenai Backcountry Lodge |
 |
|
An authentic Alaskan wilderness experience at a historic and ecologically managed log lodge surrounded by one million acres of designated wilderness.
This is a top attraction of many of our All-Inclusive Alaska Vacations and our Kenai Wilderness Sampler. You can also book Kenai Backcountry Lodge on a stand-alone basis. Located on a glacier-carved lake accessible only by boat, step back in time to Alaskan life seventy-five years ago at our Kenai Backcountry Lodge. With the addition of a few more modern creature comforts, our lodge experience will reinvigorate your love for the solitude and peace you find in nature. We have applied everything we have learned about great travel experiences over the years into this rewarding endeavor.
SAVE 20% on a two night Kenai Backcountry Lodge stay when you combine it with a Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge Package. Please call 800.334.8730 or email for details.

Top 5 Reasons to Choose the Kenai Backcountry Lodge |
- Nestled in the heart of Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and accessible only by small boat, Kenai Backcountry Lodge is the perfect venue to reinvigorate your passion for the solitude and peace you find in nature. Visit the lodge as a part of an All-Inclusive Trip or come for the lodge alone.
- It's historic. The original lodge was built in the 1930's as a hunting lodge. Step back in time to Alaskan life over 75 years ago for a visit to a lodge that embodies the perfect blend of modern creature comforts with authentic rustic elegance. Delicious meals, comfy cabins, hot showers and flush toilets are a part of the experience.
- It's a quaint, private wilderness paradise: the lodge accommodates only 16 - 18 people and it's all about being in a beautiful place, hiking to treeline, lake kayaking and enjoying the quiet in an environmentally sustainable place.
- It's a vacation. Venture through evergreen forest as you journey to breathtaking alpine tundra. Relax in a cozy, wood-fired sauna. Paddle a sea kayak across a brilliant turquoise glacial lake. Seek out moose and other wildlife under the rich glow of the midnight sun. And, at the end of the day, enjoy appetizers and a glass of chilled chardonnay, prelude to a delicious dinner served with gourmet flair. After dinner, relax by the lake shore or paddle a canoe under the midnight sun. Either way, you can't beat the spectacular view.
- It's award winning and environmentally friendly: the lodge was developed and is managed with efforts to reduce the impact on the natural area. The lodge utilizes a simple but effective hydroelectric power system to provide water and electricity, reducing the need for fossil fueled power. Buildings have been built or renovated with environmentally friendly methods and materials in order to maintain historic context and blend with the wilderness character of the land.
