Discover the unique charm of "The Nellie," a yurt named after the legendary pioneer Alaska Nellie, located on Grant Lake in Moose Pass, Alaska. This cozy hideaway offers accommodations for up to 5 people with bunks featuring one double bed and three twin beds. Enjoy the handmade spruce table, board games, and cards for old-fashioned fun.

At camp, find river expedition-style mattresses, a covered camp kitchen, a Coleman 2-burner stove, cooking utensils, a woodstove with cut wood, and a bear box. Explore Grant Lake with the available tandem kayaks, life jackets, and paddles.

Moose Pass is 1.5 hours south of Anchorage and 30 miles from Seward and Kenai Fjords National Park. Access to the yurt requires boating to the trailhead, followed by a 1-mile kayak and a 1-mile hike. Boat transportation across Trail Lake is not included, and walking across the railroad bridge is prohibited. Enjoy a unique and inspiring stay in this historic and picturesque location.

It's truly amazing when the travel planner listens and understands what you're looking for, then delivers. Great work Erin! I'm anticipating my next adventure knowing the journey is exactly what I hoped it could be. The speed of service and attention to detail made for an incredible experience. Definitely worth the 5 stars.

Our assigned planning consultant was instrumental in making the whole cruise booking process absolutely seamless. She helped us with adequate information and advice after understanding what we wanted out of this trip, while taking into account our age and fitness levels. Not once did I feel being rushed to decide. She also provided important tips on buffering for jet lag, acclimatisation and unforeseen delays. Registration was smooth and easy. All in all, exactly what the headline says … pleasant and efficient balanced just right in terms of personal and professional engagement.

I contacted Adventure Life months ago to help me find a cruise to Alaska. It was too early to book Then, but when contacted Karilyn again, she was ready to give us a couple of options that worked with our group for the dates that we needed. She answered all of our questions and got us the cabins that we wanted. Now we've been handed off to Nur, who is doing a great job with finalizing our reservations.
