When you stay here, you know you are in the real Alaska! Many people will not be able to get to this place since it involved driving over 200 miles on the mostly unpaved and very rough Dalton Highway. There are only a few other options for lodging in this area, but this one appeared to be the best choice by far. The B&B is located in the very small and historic town of Wiseman. The accommodations consist of a rustic cabin that holds two rooms with a shared bathroom. The rooms are very clean (the bathroom is modern) and the one we stayed in had two beds, a table with benches, a stove and oven, a small sink, and bookshelves stocked with some interesting reading material. The kitchen area is important since there is only one restaurant around and it is 20 miles back down the Dalton in Coldfoot. It really helps to plan ahead and bring your own food to cook. The cabin is stocked with pots, plates, utensils and even dish soap, so you have everything you need. The hosts, the Hickers have lived in this community for many years and their home is the old Wiseman recreation hall from the early days of the town. They serve you a yummy sourdough pancake breakfast, at a long table in the room where the dances used to be held. They were very friendly and helpful, suggesting various hiking options for us in the area. It seems that many of the other guests were just passing through on the way to or from Prudhoe Bay, but there is a lot of spectacular wilderness to see in this area, so spend some time here if you can. Also, take an evening walk around the town since it’s a very unique place. When you are here you know you have arrived in the true wilderness of Alaska!
