This upscale lodge has an enviable position on the green banks of the Chena River. Room decor tilts toward the matronly, but there’s also a row of spiffy log cabins with their own lawn.
Service is quick and friendly, local artwork adorns the public spaces, and amenities include a steam room, sauna, exercise facilities and the popular Pike’s Landing, with its Alaskan-sized deck facing the river.
In 2003, the Iditarod dogsled race finished here due to lack of snow further south. The event is memorialized in a pleasant iris garden.
