Best place in Alaska!!

This was the best place ever!! James & his wife have thought of everything. The cabins are so comfortable and quiet. You can walk the property, sit in chairs along the river and a fire pit at night. Breakfast in the Cook House in the morning is amazing. No cold danishes here. On a scale of 1 to 10, I give them 11!! Above and beyond on all levels. Thank you!!

A piece of heaven in the wild

James and his wife are delightful. We called at the booking time. He was very informative about the area. The best part of the stay was the comfortable king bed and cozy room. And then, there is the breakfast! THE best breakfast in Alaska! This our fourth trip to Alaska and we have been in the state for two weeks. The Wi-Fi at the property was the best in Alaska. After two weeks of impossible to use Wi-Fi, this is a relief. There is a two way radio to communicate with him throughout the stay. That was a nice touch.

The property is just a gem. It's worth the drive and I can't recommend it enough. James and Cristina were awesome and you can tell that they've put their heart and soul into the cabins, property, and entire experience. From check in to checkout, they were available, but not intrusive. The cabins were immaculate, décor on point with the surrounding area, and contained the modern amenities that many others in the area lack. Full bathrooms (water based toilet, shower, and sink), comfy beds, and just a wonderful ambience. You feel connected to the outdoors, but also safe and secure. Your reservation comes with access to the cookhouse and it comes stocked with everything you'd need to cook and serve a 5 star meal. Fridge and freezer access. We brought burgers, dogs, and a few sides to make for dinner for 8, and nothing was lacking. James and Cristina utilize the cookhouse to make and serve you breakfast...and let's just say that it's very hearty. You won't go away hungry. My only gripe was that we couldn't stay longer! Thanks James and Cristina! It was a wonderful experience and even though Alaska is full of beauty and adventure, staying at Wrangell Mountain Lodge was one of the main highlights of our trip.

We absolutely loved our time in Hunter Cabin. The decor was great! The bed and pillows were comfortable. We sat around a fire in the evening and met the other guests there. The owner helped us get the fire going. We walked along the creek and collected beautiful rocks. We sat in the lawn chairs and basked in the amazing mountain views! The breakfast in the morning was amazing home cooked meal with eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns and pancakes with fresh ground coffee beans for the coffee! Amazing! I recommend this place for everyone!

A Full B&B with tons of extra Free Ammenities.

When we booked this hotel it had very few reviews and pictures. Having stayed there now it makes sense why they have recieved tons of top reviews. We thought we booked a hotel, but this is 4 small cabins on private property that is a full B&B. The rooms were cozy, well decorated and had full flushable plumbing and hot showers. It is convieniently located halfway up the McCarthy road. The WiFi in the cabins was the best we had during our whole Alaska trip, we were able to stream shows on our computer when we were worn out from hiking all day. Lets also talk about food, this far out on the McCarthy road there are really zero food options. Bring your own food, they provide both a full fridge and kitchen to cook whatever you would need in their cook house. No need to worry about breakfast though, they have quick cereal to go options if you want but the hosts were willing to wake up whenever we were ready to cook us a full breakfast each morning. I'm talking 2 pancakes, scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage and bacon plus orange juice and apple juice made individually for each person. You can't beat the view around the cabin or the creek that runs right behind them to walk along. If you are planning to go to McCarthy/Kennicot, you would be a fool not to stay here as a couple.

This property is off the grid. You are surrounded by woods in the Wrangell Mts. This was an experience just travelling McCarthy Road to get to the lodge. The hosts provided an amazing breakfast each day. What a memorable stay.

Opportunity to experience a bit of Alaska off the grid but with modern conveniences of en-suite flush toilets and hot showers. Owners are very hospitable. Large cookhouse breakfast was included and cookhouse was available for preparing your own lunch and/or dinner. Good location for exploring the park.

These are cabins. We were in Blackburn cabins and this one was a good change after them: Shower, awesome breakfast, better kitchen (we cook), super easy to access, close to river, raspberry growing just around. As in Blackburn you get the bonfire. Pity we were thee only for one night (tight schedule). Kids didn't want to leave. One thing (the host warns about it) the hot water control is super sensitive and hard to get right, but my wife was able to take shower, no problem. Need to be always ready for bears (spray or firearm) and instruct kids to hang around adults all the time. If we ever around that area again we'll definitely book that place (if available). :)

Lovely cabins in the woods at mile 26 on the McCarthy Road. The 60 mile road is not for everyone, but beautiful. Great full breakfast provided. No restaurants nearby for other meals, but a pristine, well equipped cookhouse to prepare your own meals. Hosts James and Christina very helpful and responsive.

The Wrangell Mountain Lodge was our favorite place we stayed during our two-week trip. We stayed in the fishing cabin, which was very clean and cozy/comfortable. The property is gorgeous and the breakfast was amazing. They also let you use the cook house to make other meals, which is very helpful given the remoteness. Perfect place to stay to explore the McCarthy Road area of Wrangell St Elias.

This place is fabulous! If you are going to Wrangell- St Elias NP this is an excellent place to stay. Cristina & James are great hosts. The cabins are very nice, nicely decorated and with very modern indoor full bathrooms. They provided breakfast that was much better than we expected. Pancakes, eggs, hash browns, sausage, bacon and of course juice, coffee and tea. And the cook house is available for you to use to fix your own lunch or dinner. We can't say enough about how nice Cristina & James were and how wonderful this place is.

We loved our stay here! James and his wife were very friendly and helpful. Our cabin was very comfortable and felt perfect for the area. The road to the lodge is actually a very nice gravel road. I am not sure if it has been fixed since the previous reviews, but it is in excellent condition now.

James and Cristina were outstanding hosts! The Wrangell Mountain Lodge takes the raw beauty of the Wrangell National Park and Preserve and combines it with modern amenities like running water and electricity. My girlfriend and I were lucky enough to snag the fishing cabin for a night and it did not disappoint! We were nestled about 30 yards from a river and the sound of the running water lulled us to sleep while in the super comfortable king sized bed. After a long day of fishing the clean shower in the cabin felt like an absolute luxury. Even my usually rambunctious pittie fell asleep quickly in the dog bed that was provided. In the morning, our hosts cooked up a scrumptious breakfast for us staying at the lodge. I was expecting frozen waffles and cereal but instead I discovered pancakes, sausage, bacon, eggs, and hash browns were on the menu! My girlfriend slept for the 0800 breakfast time but James and Cristina were gracious enough to make her a warm plate so she could enjoy it fresh! It is a good hour’s drive from Chitina and McCarthy but absolutely worth it! The fire pits, the fresh breakfast, the cleanliness and detailed rustic feel of the cabin, and the amazing host will definitely have me returning again!

We loved our stay at the Wrangell Mountain Lodge. James greeted us and was extremely hospitable. He even gave us marshmallows for the fire. The bear room was clean and the bed was comfy. The breakfast was filling and delicious. The road to the lodge was easy to drive and the lodge is located about an hour from McCarthy. Would definitely stay again at the lodge!
