"Old school lodge with basic, but comfortable accommodations. The feel is a bit out of date, but you are in Glacier Bay National Park. No need for TVs or WiFi in the rooms. The lodge does have WiFi if youāre itching to stay connected. There is a fireplace in the sitting area, with puzzles and reading material, and comfy chairs/couches, as well as a restaurant, and the park Visitors Center upstairs. The restaurant is ok. It is run by Aramark, so what can you expect? The only item that really stood out as remarkable was the halibut tacos. They are worth a try. Everything else I tried was meh. Still better than overpriced stadium food though I suppose. Andā¦Glacier Bay National Park."

"A great and cozy little cabin in the woods, about 15-20 minutes from the airport, easy access. If you want a nice quiet peaceful place to stay, this is it. I didnāt bring kids but they would have loved it. Pick berries out the back porch, the cabin had everything we needed, close to some trails and such. I would love to come back and stay again, it was perfect for us 2, but could easily have had 4, and could bunk kids upstairs also. Host was available if needed, responding immediately to any inquiries, although we really didnāt need anything. Itās actually cuter in person than the pics represented, real neat place. Thank you!"

"This well loved property was perfect for our girls week. Kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable, appreciated the woodstove, and the host was very accommodating ... but mostly, the view from the cozy porch was 10 stars! We saw whales almost everyday."
"Our family had a wonderful week at this Lena Cove home. The location was perfectājust far enough from downtown Juneau to escape the crowds and catch extra sunshine. The main living area offers sweeping waterfront views; we watched eagles soar, salmon jump, otters playing, and spotted a black-tail deer. We tried fishing from the rocky shoreline, but the salmon ignored our lures (the rocky bottom loved them!). The lush grounds and the welcome bouquet of wildflowers on the porch were lovely touches.Inside, the home was exceptionally comfortable. The beds feature perfect linens, and our teenage son loved having his own space to spread out in the loft. The shower water stayed hot through four back-to-back users, and the tap water tasted as great as bottled.A few quick suggestions for the hosts to elevate the stay:Linens: The towels are great quality, but providing only five bath towels for four guests for a week required a lot of laundry. A few extra sets, along with more dishcloths/kitchen towels, would be helpful.Kitchen: Adding basic staples (tinfoil, plastic wrap, Ziplocs) would be great. Simple drawer organizers and a few bins in the pantry to organize leftover guest food would also make the space much more user-friendly.We would absolutely stay here again!"

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this VRBO in Gustavus! The home was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing visit. It was the perfect home base for exploring Glacier Bay and enjoying the peaceful beauty of the area.
The setting was quiet and beautiful, and we especially appreciated how well-equipped and welcoming the home felt. It truly made our trip even more memorable.
The host was friendly, responsive, and made the entire process seamless from beginning to end. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Gustavus. Thank you for helping make our Alaska trip so special!"
The best time to visit Excursion Inlet is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is mildest and wildlife is most active.
During these months, you'll find the most comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 10°C to 20°C, and the longest daylight hours, which are great for exploring. This period offers the best opportunities for wildlife viewing, including bears, eagles, and marine life, as well as prime conditions for fishing.
For those eager to experience the salmon run, late July and August are particularly good. This is when the salmon return to the rivers, attracting a significant amount of wildlife, especially bears, which makes for exceptional viewing. It's an excellent time for nature photographers and wildlife enthusiasts.
