My wife and I took the helicopter tour of the Knik glacier. The tour included an awesome dogsled ride in a gorgeous, snow-filled natural setting, and we were each given the opportunity to actually drive the dogsled. This was followed by a hike on the glacier. It was not a strenuous or dangerous experience (we were equipped with crampons and... More

We arrived at Knik River Lodge on the last day of our honey moon trip in Alaska, and we just loved it! The Lodge is situated at the end of a valley close to a Glacier (which offer many possibilities of excursions). The cabin was perfect, clean and cosy and the area is definitely a calm and quiet place. Wait... More

Peter and everyone at the lodge were absolutely amazing in the way they provided service. Before I even arrived, I sent many emails to Peter regarding many types of topics and never did I feel he didn't want to answer them. He provided prompt responses and is a great guy to correspond with. My party of 4 arrived a bit... More

Knik River Lodge is a great place to get the total Alaskan experience. Peter is a great host and his staff is more than accommodating. If you are looking for a place that has live bands and dancing dogs this is not for you. Total Alaskan experience. I did not like the sulfur-well water but, seeing the moose and the... More

We visited the lodge on Sunday May 19 for a helicopter tour. The drive from Anchorage was filled with great scenery. The view from the cabins is amazing. The lodge was peaceful and still. Definitely a great place for a retreat. We were able to view one of the cabins and found them complete and not overstated. The food was... More

Thank you for your kind words! It is great to see that Knik River Lodge was a place where you were able to relax after your busy trip. That is why we encourage people to spend at least two or three nights. Most people have had a long drive from Denali, Seward, Valdez or even Tok or McCarthy when they... More
