Landing in Alaska and sleeping in a log home, handcrafted from large spruce trees is in itself, a unique experience but when you wake up in the morning and see the view... You will understand why couples get married here!
Conveniently located between Anchorage and Girdwood, AK it's a quick 30 minute drive south of the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport. The lodge is situated uphill from Indian Valley Mine, a 1901 National Historic Site where you can learn how to pan for Gold!
With 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 8 beds, it's perfect to set up home base for day trips close by or as a jumping off spot for the Kenai.
Consider using the lodge to host private parties or weddings, white party tents are available with extra fees.
Please note: There is a caretaker and a private caretaker’s area designed to keep the lodge running smoothly. During the time of your reservations, no areas are shared other than the driveway for onsite parking.
Absolutely amazing place to stay.. beautiful view…. the kitchen, rooms, bathrooms clean and well kept…the location, five stars!!

Huge cabin with the most amazing view!
Indian was one stop in our Alaska trip, we wish we had planned more nights at this home. The cabin had so many areas, that the stay was an adventure on its own! The mountain views, from the massive windows, were a dream! Dont miss the gold panning shack and have a great talk with Arlene and Roger when feeling like a true gold miner.

Best view in Turnagain Arm area!!!
Our large family of 12 stayed here and loved the view. Plenty of beds for everyone. It was fun not to have the TV so the kids played games all night. The family that owns this place is so sweet and caring. I highly recommend this for those looking to sleep in a log house and see a bit of history on the walls. Thanks for making this a fun stop on our vacation. Definitely check out the gift shop below the house!!

Beautiful cabin with gorgeous view
This cabin was the perfect overnight stay on our trek from Talkeetna to Seward. The cabin itself is very nice and far more spacious than we expected from the listing. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. It was too cool to sit out on the 2nd floor deck for long. Fortunately the third floor has a spectacular view to enjoy from inside with a wall of windows. Be sure to save time to pan for gold at their mine at the base of property!

Alaska review
The property was clean and beautiful but, a few more cooking pans would be helpful. I didn't realize someone was living in the house during our stay. We heard noises at night of radio or TV and moving furniture.

Amazing view/ amazing house and amazing host
On our way from Anchorage to Seward, we stopped at Arlene and Roger's beautiful home. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and the house itself was stunning. Arlene and Roger remodeled it themselves, and the attention to detail is incredible. Our party of nine had plenty of space, with everyone enjoying their own private area.
We initially booked this stop as an overnight rest, but now we wish we had stayed longer. We're already planning to return for a week-long stay to fully relax and enjoy the surroundings. During our visit, we also stopped by their store down the hill. We could have spent the entire day talking with Arlene and Roger, captivated by their life experiences. They are some of the nicest people we've ever met.
Additionally, they host weddings on their property, and the setting is unparalleled. If you're considering a visit to their home, do it! It's an experience you don't want to miss

Unforgettable
This is the most picturesque place we have ever been to in our lives and to top that off, the log cabin was exquisite. Everything was placed with so much care. The inside was clean, warm and inviting. The hosts were lovely and made us feel very welcome. We would recommend this property to anyone- in fact the atmosphere really left a beautiful impression of Alaska on us.

Saving Grace!
Arlene and her family came to our rescue with this amazing property. 2 other properties had canceled on us last minute but Turnagain Lodge saved the day! It exceeded all of our expectations and was worth every penny. The views were spectacular, location great and the hospitality very accommodating. We truly lucked out and will come back again/recommend to others.

can't beat the view!
Amazing view and large property. Owners are very involved in the process and it is not a private place. Make sure you understand you are not in a cabin in any wilderness, you are on a main road below the owners businesses. There are cameras and the property is also used as an event space. The owners will also perform improvement projects during your stay.

Exceeded expectations!
Our stay exceeded our expectations. First off, the view is unbeatable. Secondly, the house is SO spacious! We had 3 couples stay, and we each had our own bedroom and full bath, on separate floors, which was very nice! The house comes with everything you need, just need to obviously bring your own food. It was clean, home-y, and far enough off the highway that you don’t even know it’s there! Highly recommend staying here if you want gorgeous views and a VERY comfortable stay! Arlene also made the check in and check our process a breeze!

Beautiful Lodge Better Than Expected
We booked the place and checked in all in the same day from our previous place not working out. We were hosting photographers for a retreat and used the house as a place to welcome students with a nice dinner, teach, eat, and sleep. Shooting around different locations in Alaska in evenings. Arlene was extremely accommodating in the last minute-ness. We were super appreciative of that. In the haste of checking in, there was some miscommunication about overall price and other things that weren't put in writing initally. Upon checkout, rather than working to try to come to a compromise of how we could solve the issue, we were met with brashness, anger, and a demanding nature from her husband Roger who insinuated that the miscommunications were our fault. Reasoning seemed impossible and we gave into what they wanted in the end to avoid the conversation getting any more emotional and seemingly going no where. Which left us pretty bitter about how it went down at the end.
All this to be said, the house itself was fantastic. The pictures don't do it justice. It is truly 10x better in person. The view is incredible. Everyone had an amazing time enjoying the house itself. Arlene was extremely communicative throughout the days of us being there as well as helpful throughout. There were plugs beside every bed which was so so nice, and it was clean and well kept. We are extremely sad that it ended the way it did in their choice of handling the situation and their approach when speaking to us (Roger's more specifically). Although we likely won't be back ourselves, we still wish nothing but the best for their business and hope that the situation was a learning experience in the end. We are confident anyone booking in advance would have a fantastic stay.
