Step back in time to a remote wilderness experience at Kenai Backcountry Lodge. A favorite among adventurous couples and groups wanting to get out in nature for some amazing hiking, this lodge offers a remote and intimate feel to all who visit.
The property offers nine cozy cabins with some added creature comforts. A small hydroelectric system allows for minimal impact on the environment while still allowing for some electricity in this remote location. The guest cabins offer a small group atmosphere at all times and a light footprint. Each guest cabin includes en-suite bathrooms with heated water and lodge-style furnishings with linens, comforters, and propane heaters and lights. Guided activities, all meals, and round trip transportation from either Cooper Landing or Anchorage are included in the stay.
All meals are prepared in the main lodge and dining room. Guided adventures are typically planned out for the day over a hot breakfast. A four-course meal served family-style is always a welcome and restful way to end the day's adventures. Relax by the bonfire with a glass of wine or a beer or unwind in the wood-fired sauna to relax to close each wonderful day in Alaska.
Beyond expectations! Then again we weren't sure what to expect. Lovely stay at the lodge, met other like-minded travelers (many had their trips planned by Adventure Life) and the owner was a gracious hostess. It felt like you were one happy family, visiting with a favorite aunt.

I don’t have the words to describe it but the last week has been one of the best I can remember. 6 days of adventure in South East Alaska including trekking through lush rain forest, sitting in silence listening to glaciers calving, up early to see the northern lights, kayaking and stupidly swimming in iceberg frozen waters ! (That actually hurt).
Animal sightings including black and brown bears, Minke and hundreds of Humpack Whales, porpoises, sea lions, mountain goats, harbour seals, bald eagles, salmon and more birds than I can count. Wonderful friends and connections made. A huge shout out to Trevor and his totally amazing crew on the Admiralty Dream whose energy and enthusiasm made this most incredible experience.

Excellent safari trip with Adventure Life and Albatross Travel. Special shout out to our guides Eric Turasha (Kenya), and Blasi Shirima (Tanzania) from Albatross Travel. Both were world class!!! The trip went off without a hitch; all the camps were amazing…worth mentioning...one of the camps we were going to stay in on the Tanzanian side was damaged by high winds so we ended up in a different camp (Mara under Canvas Camp). Can't say enough good things! A great experience and superb service!!
