Turnagain View Lodge & Wedding Venue

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.
